In addition, wall slopes at a 51° angle ensure faster material discharge. For user convenience, the car has three roof hatches specially designed for loading.

Thanks to their high-quality construction and reliable performance, VTG’s new cars have already received positive feedback from customers.

Experts emphasize that the lightweight aluminum body makes the car extremely competitive in the market. In addition, the easy maintenance and high payload capacity ensure cost-effectiveness for the user. This is especially important for carriers focused on optimizing their expenses.

VTG states that its vehicles meet all modern safety and environmental standards. This shows the manufacturer’s commitment to integrating the latest technologies and supporting sustainable development. According to VTG representatives, the new generation of vehicles meets the growing demand for environmentally friendly transportation solutions.
