Euroliner 340 GLRG – EU class N2 lorry with a gross vehicle weight of 9,980 kg, a ten-cylinder 6,792 cm³ engine and a 5,800 mm wheelbase
With a gross vehicle weight of 9,980 kg, the Euroliner 340 GLRG falls into EU vehicle class N2, the medium-weight segment of lorries between 3.5 and 12 tonnes. Vehicles in this class handle distribution and municipal work that is too much for a light van and too little for a full articulated lorry.

The register lists a ten-cylinder engine of 6,792 cm³ for the 340 GLRG. Against a kerb weight of 7,690 kg and the gross weight of 9,980 kg, this leaves a payload of around 2,290 kg. The vehicle is 10,250 mm long and 2,540 mm wide, with a wheelbase of 5,800 mm; it runs on four wheels.
Within the EU, lorries in this weight class are limited to 90 km/h. The long 5,800 mm wheelbase relative to the comparatively short overall length suggests a body with little front and rear overhang, as is typical of box bodies or special superstructures with a low centre of gravity. A two-axle layout at this weight calls for a correspondingly robust axle-load design.
When buying a used vehicle in this weight class, check the condition of the brakes and suspension under heavy payload, the seals around the cab and body, and the state of the drive shaft and axles. A look at the engine's service history and a check for corrosion on the frame and body are worthwhile, along with whether spare parts for this particular body are still available.
