This page gathers vehicles carried in the register under the Framo brand with the type designations E400/400 4x2 BLS and TGS. Framo was a vehicle maker from Hainichen in Saxony, whose plant continued after 1961 in East Germany under the name Barkas; the two type designations listed here come from different register sources and span a wide range of commercial vehicle sizes.

The register lists 2 versions here with kerb weights from 8,880 to 16,450 kg, gross vehicle weights from 19,000 to 37,000 kg, and lengths from 6,290 to 9,350 mm with a width of 2,550 mm.
The span of gross weights from 19,000 to 37,000 kg shows that this register entry covers vehicles of very different size classes, from medium-duty to heavy commercial vehicles for freight transport. Lengths from 6,290 to 9,350 mm and a uniform width of 2,550 mm point to different axle configurations and body types within this page.
For a used vehicle in these weight classes, check the frame and axles for corrosion and wear, clutch and gearbox condition, brake system operation, and the service history of the respective engine; parts availability depends heavily on the individual vehicle and chassis maker, and should be checked case by case before purchase. For vehicles with such differing backgrounds, documentation of provenance and history is especially important for each individual example.
