After their production on the Sevel site in Val di Sangro (Atessa, Italy), these vehicles will be electrified and approved by the BD OTO partner.

Its standard equipment gives it more robustness with Grip Control and Hill Assist with All-Seasons tyres, wheel arch protectors, front and rear mud flaps, reinforced suspension, under-engine protection plate, pedestrian buzzer, and Comfort seat pack. The new Asphalt version is available with all lengths and payloads, and is dedicated to those who spend a lot of time in their vehicle and want more comfort and safety.

Perfectly suited to large vans or motorhomes. Safety is enhanced with the Blind Spot Monitoring System which outputs information via an LED in the left or right mirror. This equipment also has a “rear traffic alert” which can detect vehicles in a distance of 50m to the left or right when the reverse gear is engaged. The information is audible in the passenger compartment. Finally, the system is complemented by the “trailer merge assist”, which provides blind spot monitoring taking into account the size of a trailer (between 3 and 9 meters). The information is rendered in the receiver.
