The "amazing" ASTRA chassis is broad with
sturdy steel girders which are flat and parallel along the entire length to ensure great stability even with loads with a high center of gravity to enable the body-builders to mount the superstructures quickly and easily.
Half-elliptic spring supports and die cast carriage shoulders - designed with very high safety coefficients - make it possible to reach quality levels at the top of the category.
The most complex equipments are possible thanks to the structural features of the extra heavy duty chassis and different mechanical suspensions architecture.
THE ENGINE
Cursor engines in 8 and 13 liters in synergy with different type of manual gear box (with or without WSK) - Semi-Automatic or automatic with torque converter - guarantee the new HD9 high torque value, flexibility and considerable braking power, essential for working on construction sites.
