What Van’s Converter of the Year 2017, Trucksmith launched a new product at this year’s Commercial Vehicle Show in April.
The new ‘Renault Trafic Target’ is based on the low roof Renault Trafic platform cab and introduces a clever, secure loading space to the traditional drop-side flatbed van.
The upper loading area has 400mm high folding and removable aluminium panels with a 2,850 x 1,890mm top deck. The unique difference is the hidden lower desk where there is a secure and weatherproof load space accessible via a rear tailgate.
The superstructure and load bed subframe are from pressed and welded steel, hot dip galvanized then bonded and mechanically fixed to the vehicle floor pan to form a one-piece monocoque structure. The top desk flooring is resin coated 12mm mesh-faced birch plywood.
The new Trucksmith vehicle comes with a 4-year, 100,000-mile warranty.
