P-series

multi-drop cab

Optimised for urban and regional transport

With the P-series trucks you get a low weight, low-height mounted cab with great visibility and driveability that is well balanced to suit your specific needs. The P-series is our most versatile cab range, ideal for urban and regional operations and well-proven for construction and other demanding conditions.

The P-series has excellent visibility and driveability, improving both safety and the feeling of control. The P-cab offers easy cab access, a quiet working environment and improved space and storage.

CITY SAFE WINDOW

In stationery and congested traffic, it can be difficult to see obstacles and vulnerable road users like pedestrians and cyclists around the vehicle, in particular close to the corner of the vehicle on the passenger side.

The optional city safe window low down on the passenger door improves the chance of spotting children, pedestrians and cyclists near the truck. In addition, the low cab height and driver position affords the driver improved road visibility in built-up urban areas relative to G/R/S-series cabs.

Driver area

Urban driving involves many starts and stops, repeated climbing in and out of the cab, and the constant need to keep track of other road users and pedestrians around the truck whilst driving. The spacious cab offers comfort, convenience and visibility, to make life easier for the driver in what can be a challenging and stressful situations.

Extra space

Working long hours like your drivers do, they might need to bring additional equipment, both personal and work-related. Either way, our cabs are equipped with smart storage facilities enabling them to stock up without the cab feeling cramped.

The 7-litre engine compact format makes the engine tunnel a whole 95 mm lower than in a regular P-cab. This design improves cross-cab access and creates a more spacious interior feel. This is a great benefit to urban delivery drivers who must use tight roadside loading bays, as it makes it easier to cross the cab and enter/exit through the passenger door.

Exterior design

Front, roof, side, underbody – all areas have been analysed, redesigned and optimised to achieve the lowest possible air drag. The shape of the cab and its corners, all gaps and angles have been narrowed and streamlined to achieve more efficient air flow and dynamic flow of lines.

The lighting is one of the most prominent features of the P-cab, enhancing both its appearance and safety levels. As part of the basic configuration, position lights and extra lights are now integrated into the cab, without having a negative impact on aerodynamic drag.

The overall dimensions of the cab are suited to tight urban environments, while the tight panel gaps and streamlined contours offer both style and aerodynamic efficiency too.

“We are developing solutions to ensure that operators in the world’s major cities are able to cope with the challenges that face them.”
