Description

AL-KO Chassis Technology

Our AL-KO lightweight chassis based on the Volkswagen Transporter offers many advantages such as a higher payload, a long service life, more transport volume and more convenient loading and unloading.

Your advantage:

  • More payload
    • Thanks to the AL-KO lightweight technology and the higher permitted total weight of 3.5 tons the payload of the vehicle is increased.
  • More transport volume
    • Variable wheelbases in conjunction with the offered overhang variants make a customised solution possible for nearly all transport problems with optimal load distribution and the best driving stability. In addition, the wider rear gauge offers you more flexibility and approx. 100 mm more through-loading width.
  • Long service life
    • Hot dip galvanised connection flanges and chassis components ensure maximum, reliable corrosion protection
  • Trailing arm axle torsion bar suspension
    • The individual suspension offers car-like suspension comfort and optimal safety in conjunction with specially customised spring rods and high-performance wheel shock absorbers.
  • Easy to service
    • Bolted frame parts are easy to service, ensuring shorter periods of downtime for repairs.
  • Wide track chassis
    • The maintenance-free rear axle with a wide axle gauge optimises the driving behaviour and provides the best possible driving safety and outstanding driving comfort.
  • Easy loading and unloading
    • For easy and comfortable vehicle loading and unloading, the attachment of a tail lift is possible in conjunction with a support frame.
  • ESP
    • For the AL-KO CHASSIS based on the Volkswagen Transporter, ESP (electronic stability program) with braking assist, ABS, ASR, EDS and hill climb assist come standard (with Premium Partner clearance certificate from Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles)
