The new Scudo has arrived to fulfil cutting-edge European
urban and intercity goods transport requirements in the light commercial vehicle
segment, i.e. vehicles with 4 to 5 m3 of interior volume and 850 to 930 kg of
payload.
The brisk, no-nonsense and safe New Scudo is the result of an advanced design
that assures impeccable dynamic behaviour under all application conditions. The
new range now on offer has made the vehicle more stylish, comfortable and safe.
This has been achieved by tweaking the interior and exterior style, particularly
at the front where the shape is now more up-to-date and better proportioned. The
new model's ergonomics and acoustic comfort also make it a veritable benchmark
for its sector. The New Scudo offers greater safety with an upgraded braking
system, sidebags and 3-point seat-belts on all seats.
Its winning features include: ability to carry a payload of up to 930 kilograms
and up to 5 cubic metres of effective volume; generously sized sliding side
doors and two rear side-hinged doors; ample width between the wheelarches and
reduced ground clearance for easier goods loading and unloading operations. The
roomy, well-lit cabin is thoroughly sound-proofed and climate controlled to
offer passenger room and driving comfort levels comparable to those of an
up-to-date saloon.
The range is broad and diverse, as demonstrated by the seven available body
versions: Glazed and Panel Van with short or long wheelbase. Chassis cab with
short or long wheelbase and Combi for the transport of people and goods.
