Patriot Colorado: light pick-up at the boundary between vehicle classes N1 and N2, with a diesel engine, load bed and gross vehicle weight just above 3.5 tonnes
Vehicles of this size sit at the boundary between a category B and a category C1 driving licence: once the gross vehicle weight passes 3.5 tonnes, a pick-up no longer counts as class N1 but as class N2. Vehicles of this kind usually serve as a base for commercial bodywork, from a flatbed to a box body, and are often converted in small numbers for specialised tasks in urban and regional distribution work.

The four-cylinder diesel engine of 2,776 cm³ produces 135 kW and drives a vehicle 5,400 mm long and 1,887 mm wide. With a kerb weight of 2,280 kg and a gross vehicle weight of 3,502 kg, about 1,220 kg of payload remains, enough for tools, material or a small body without the vehicle changing class.
Operating a vehicle above 3.5 tonnes gross weight in the European Union generally requires a category C1 driving licence rather than a plain car licence. The 135 kW output is high for this weight class and allows brisk operation even at full load or with a trailer, which suits short and medium-distance distribution work.
When buying such a pick-up used, it is worth checking the condition of the load bed or body, the frame and the rear leaf springs, and the mileage on the highly compressed diesel engine. Tyres and brakes should match the actual load carried, since the vehicle runs close to the upper weight limit of its class and overloading wears the suspension and drivetrain noticeably faster.
