Lauwyck 5TD46/5/L: 3,500 kg chassis with dual rear tyres, a 2,500 cc four-cylinder engine and a 4,390 mm wheelbase for a long body
At a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg, the 5TD46/5/L sits in EU class N1, the upper end of commercial vehicles that can be driven on a category B car licence. Six wheels with dual tyres on the rear axle point to a chassis built for a body with its weight concentrated at the rear, rather than a simple box body with an evenly spread load.

The four-cylinder engine of 2,500 cc drives the vehicle with a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg and an unladen weight of 2,160 kg, leaving around 1,340 kg for payload. At 2,100 mm wide and with a 4,390 mm wheelbase on six wheels, the chassis is built for a long body, noticeably longer than a compact van.
Vehicles of this type often carry the name of the bodybuilder rather than the original chassis manufacturer; the figures given here therefore describe the finished work vehicle above all. At 3,500 kg, at the upper limit of class N1, the vehicle remains drivable without an additional licence category and without a tachograph requirement, an advantage for commercial users over heavier chassis.
For a used example of such a long chassis with dual rear tyres, the condition of the rear axle and suspension matters, since these take particular strain on bodies with a heavy rear load. It is also worth checking the mounting points between chassis and bodywork, the condition of the brakes at this weight, and corrosion on the frame and rear wheel arches.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
