Mega – other models: the collective page of light Aixam-Mega commercial vehicles outside the named ranges, from the Tjaffer Cabrio to the M10, 820 to 1,304 kg kerb weight, 1.5-litre diesel
This page gathers the Mega vehicles the register could not assign to a named range – from the open Tjaffer 1.5D Cabrio, also in a 4x4 version, to the M10 and RNH9 types. Mega is a commercial-vehicle brand of Aixam-Mega, the French light-vehicle maker from the Chambéry-Aix-les-Bains area, which builds small diesel commercial vehicles alongside its licence-free light vehicles.

The register lists 4 versions here with kerb weights from 820 to 1,304 kg, gross weights from 1,250 to 1,640 kg, four-cylinder diesel engines of 1,527 cm³ and widths from 1,320 to 1,630 mm.
These compact, light commercial vehicles target urban delivery and trade services along with users with restricted licences or needing access to pedestrian zones; the open cabrio version also points to a niche in leisure and beach use, common among light-vehicle makers.
The small four-cylinder diesel in this weight class sits below the power threshold at which makers fit elaborate exhaust after-treatment with urea injection; it usually manages with just an oxidation catalyst and, depending on the model year, a simple particulate filter, without the AdBlue technology of heavier vans.
On used vehicles of this class, check rust on the light body, the condition of the clutch and brakes, and – on the cabrio version – the condition of the folding roof and seals; parts supply runs through Aixam-Mega authorised workshops and specialised light-vehicle dealers.
