The shorter cab allows for reduced weight and additional payload area but more importantly for optimal axle placement to facilitate a tight turning radius.

The accommodation is compact but of a very high standard with thoughtful inclusions.

The premium driver seat is fitted with an armrest and has fully adjustable settings to allow for a wide range of drivers. The steering wheel is also adjustable. The interior is comfortable and well laid out with an efficient air conditioning to cope with Australian summers.
