    With chassis and vehicle technology from AL-KO VT, you can tailor your commercial vehicle to your exact area of application. The following topics will take you directly to the right solutions:

    Chassis technology for trade, commerce and specialist applications

    Flexible chassis for a wide range of applications

    AL-KO VT is a certified partner of Fiat Professional, Citroën, Peugeot, Opel and Mercedes-Benz VanPartner. The commercial vehicle chassis can be flexibly adapted to operational requirements, for example in terms of frame length, wheelbase, number of axles or body type.

    Your advantages at a glance:

    • Higher payload thanks to lightweight construction
    • Variable wheelbases and overhangs
    • 2- or 3-axle versions
    • Improved suspension and driving stability

    Good to know: With selected AL-KO VT low-frame chassis, the frame can be lowered by up to 310 millimetres compared to the original frame. The lower frame height can make loading and unloading easier and offers additional scope for different body concepts.

    Depending on the base vehicle and configuration, there may also be further advantages for payload and driving behaviour. Driver assistance systems such as ESC are also available depending on the vehicle and configuration and can support safety and comfort in day-to-day operations. The actual available payload always depends on the specific vehicle configuration.

    Increased payload and low loading edge

    Depending on the base vehicle and configuration, AL-KO VT chassis are available as high-frame or low-frame variants as well as two- or three-axle models. Suspension systems and accessories are also offered for selected vehicle variants. Technical features such as a wide track chassis, optimised damping and ESC ensure safe driving behaviour even under heavy loads.

    The equipment can be customised in many areas, for example in frame length, wheelbase, track width and overhang. Hot-dip galvanised, bolted frame components ensure durability, corrosion protection and a service-friendly design that can help reduce fleet downtime.

    AL-KO VT chassis as a basis for bespoke body solutions

    The chassis for commercial vehicles can be supplemented with different body solutions. The choice of solution depends entirely on the requirements of each business. Flatbeds for trade businesses can be implemented just as easily as car transporters, sales vehicles or spacious horse transporters.

    The 2- or 3-axle chassis can be fitted with a box body. Refrigerated box bodies for transporting perishable foods and goods can also be used. Body solution partners are available across Germany.

    Suspension technology and accessories for commercial vehicles

    Expand your AL-KO VT chassis with accessories and spare parts. These include, for example, suspension systems that provide increased comfort and driving safety. Full air suspension systems such as Air Premium X2 or Air Premium X4 as well as supplementary air suspension systems like Air Plus are available. Spare wheel carriers mounted at the rear of the chassis are also available. Towbars are also available. The suitability of a particular solution depends, among other things, on the permissible trailer load, the specific vehicle requirements and the corresponding approvals. Vehicles can also be fitted with ClickFix steady legs from AL-KO VT. These enable vehicles to be safely parked even on uneven ground.
