Because cars transporting goods on long-distance routes achieve significant annual mileage (from 60 to 100 thousand kilometers) should be driven by the modern, supercharged diesel engines, which burn less fuel and are cheaper, which definitely reduces operating costs. Despite the extension of the service intervals of such engines to 30 thousand kilometers must be two, serviced and repaired in authorized workshops three times a year. When making a purchase decision, you cannot fail to take into account the number of service points.
In contact with cars designed in the Far East, in which the engine located longitudinally at the front drives the rear wheels, A European usually much taller than an Asian feels some discomfort. He needs to sit in a relatively narrow cabin that can only accommodate two people. His seat is above the engine, which is a source of heat and vibration, and there is relatively little legroom in the plane of the floor. Access to reliable power units is difficult, and a whole range of design solutions requires a change in the habits and habits of the driver. That is why in Poland German cars are more appreciated, although the position of other European producers is steadily increasing.
Front-wheel drive vans are less popular with users than those with proven rear-wheel drive. However, they do have a valuable advantage, which is a significant lowering of the cargo floor level to 520 mm and more favorable floor design, thanks to the elimination of the drive shaft and the rear axle. We then get a car with a lower center of gravity. However, a rear-wheel drive car is more stable on a laden route, due to the favorable distribution of pressure on both axles. If the car has to be overloaded periodically, then you should definitely choose rear wheel drive vehicles, where the bridge is situated on twin tires.
Due to truck traffic restrictions in cities, in recent years, a new group of "city distribution cars" has been established. Characteristic for their work is the transport of goods weighing about one ton and a volume of up to 8 m3. Such a vehicle performs a number of repetitive activities: loading of goods in a warehouse or warehouse, multi-site delivery and return. Driver's work, who is both the operator and the escort, is characterized by monotony, frequent stops in narrow streets and lots of unloading. Specialized cars with a lift and rear louvre doors used for this purpose are still rare in our market.
