A robust and reliable Terminal Tractor.

This truck has been designed ready to work with:

    Maximum durability: a completely new, heavy-duty steel frame ensures long-term structural integrity.

    Reinforced strength: heavy-duty reinforced axles and frame are standard across the entire range to handle your heaviest loads.

    Faster load handling: with hydraulically controlled lifting and lowering.

    Rapid repair: a new three-section front bumper allows for quick, cost-effective replacement of individual parts.

Modular by design.

Instead of having a predefined range of shunt trucks we give you the choice to build the machine that is right for your operations on a highly robust and reliable platform, as we know from experience that one size does not fit all. You get to choose from:  

• Three 5th wheels.

• Two engines with different power levels.

• Three lifting capacities: 28, 32 and 36 tonnes.

• Four rear axles and two front axlesThree wheelbases.

There is also a wide range of optional extras available for you to choose from specially designed to enhance the safety, productivity and driver comfort of your new T2i Terminal Tractor.
