The line-up includes an arboricultural tipper powered by Iveco’s F1C 3.0-litre 160hp diesel with a six-speed manual gearbox

Joining the existing range of dropside, tipper, Luton, curtainside and box body options are two new 3.5-tonne gross vehicle weight (GVW) variants and three 7.2-tonne GVW models.

New arrivals include a 3.5-tonne GVW caged tipper model, powered by Iveco’s F1A 2.3-litre 136hp engine with six-speed manual gearbox and twin rear wheels, featuring a 3,750mm wheelbase. Standard equipment includes Iveco’s Daily Construction Pack, which includes tyre pressure monitoring, sump guard, cross-axle differential lock, elliptical rear springs and towing electrics. The body features a side access door, tool box fitted behind the cab, rear barn doors with tailgate and remote control tipping gear.

The arboricultural tipper is powered by Iveco’s F1C 3.0-litre 160hp diesel, also with a six-speed manual gearbox, twin rear wheels and 3,750mm wheelbase. Equipment includes Traction Plus and Hill Descent Control as well as the Construction Pack. Body features include a toolbox fitted behind the cab, hinged aluminium ‘chip hood’, rear barn doors, a ladder rack, remote control tipping gear, a pull-out rear step, LED hazard beacon and towbar.

Dropside and scaffolding dropside models both feature the Hi-Matic eight-speed automatic transmission, 5,100mm wheelbase and towing electrics as standard. Ladder racks are also standard equipment while the scaffolding dropside features six pairs of scaffold sockets.

The final 7.2-tonne GVW model is the tipper, equipped with a six-speed manual gearbox and featuring a 3,750mm wheelbase. It is also fitted with the Construction Pack as standard, while the body features rope hooks, graphene-infused paint, dropsides with removable centre pillars and in-cab tipping controls.
