The Respo BISON 402P20 is a car trailer from Respo (EU vehicle class O2), registered as built in 2000. It is 5,870 mm long and 2,290 mm wide, weighs 490 kg unladen and has a permitted gross weight of 2,000 kg.
Payload for the Respo BISON 402P20, i.e. permitted gross weight minus unladen weight, is 1,510 kg. More than half of the gross weight is therefore available for cargo.
Under EU licensing rules, a category B licence allows a combination of towing vehicle and this trailer up to 3,500 kg permitted total mass – so the towing vehicle may weigh at most 1,500 kg. Code 96 on a B licence raises the limit to 4,250 kg (towing vehicle up to 2,250 kg); beyond that a BE licence is required. Being over 750 kg, the trailer must be braked, and the towing vehicle needs a braked towing capacity of at least 2,000 kg.
Among the 297 car trailers from Respo with a stated length, the Respo BISON 402P20 at 5,870 mm is in the middle of the range (rank 159); the range runs from 4,060 to 12,000 mm. The Finnish vehicle register lists one unit.
Respo trailers up to 3.5 t – class O2: Estonian trailers in the register, type codes such as 1200V621T209, weights from 200 to 2,700 kg
Respo is an Estonian trailer maker. Model names in the register usually take the form of a numeric code for payload or size, supplemented with letters for body type and axle configuration, for example 1200V621T209 or 1350V000L000, sometimes with the suffix BISON for heavier versions. In the O2 vehicle class – trailers with a gross weight of 0.75 to 3.5 tonnes – the range covers light to heavy transport trailers.

The register lists 296 versions with unladen weights from 200 to 2,700 kg and gross weights from 900 to 3,500 kg. Lengths are recorded for 295 models and range from 4,060 to 12,000 mm, widths from 1,635 to 2,600 mm.
As a Baltic manufacturer, Respo supplies both the domestic market and exports to Central and Western Europe with transport trailers for machinery, vehicles and building materials. The BISON suffix marks the reinforced versions built for higher payloads, while the plain number-letter codes describe standard configurations of axle, load-bed width and drawbar shape.
When buying used, check the condition of the floor and frame for rust, the overrun brake mechanism with its linkage, axles and suspension, the electrics and lighting, and tyre age. On the long versions up to 12 metres, it is also worth checking the frame for twist and the load tie-down points.
