LCVT developed this in conjunction with a leading European manufacturer to meet the demands of intensively operated commercial vehicles, rather than the leisure market.
LCVT founder and operations director Jamie Varney comments, 'Using our unique, specially developed, low-height chassis conversion LCVT is in the process of developing a wide range of specialist light commercial vehicle bodywork. Steve Elwell’s long experience in this field will enable LCVT to rapidly grow its business in these specialist sectors.'
Mr Elwell said:'LCVT is a forward thinking company backed by a unique range of design and engineering expertise. In addition to the vehicles already being readied for production we have other projects close to fruition, including race car transporters and exhibition units.
'LCVT is also looking to partner other commercial body builders who have a need for a low floor chassis platform for specific projects, which we can work with to design solutions.'
LCTV Chassis Conversion
In a statement on the chassis conversion, LCVT said: 'The conversion naturally lends itself to a cone deployment vehicle, or for use to deliver to site, temporary traffic light systems and signage. Available as either a 3,500kg or 4,500kg gross vehicle, the proven design offers an attractive alternative to the current options in the market.'
The LCVT low-height chassis conversion is available for the following vehicles - Citroen Relay Fiat Ducato Nissan NV400 Peugeot Boxer Renault Master Vauxhall Movano.
