Hebo Trailers – O2-class trailer with a gross weight of 3,500 kg, 2,830 kg payload, a length of 8.69 m and an approved top speed of 130 km/h, built in 2023.
With a gross weight of 3,500 kg, the Hebo trailer falls into EU trailer class O2, the light trailers from 750 to 3,500 kg that can be towed on a car driving licence. At 8.69 m long, the body is unusually long for this weight class, pointing to a slim platform for long but light cargo such as boats or recreational vehicles.

With an unladen weight of 670 kg, payload comes to 2,830 kg. At 2.55 m wide, with a 4.86 m wheelbase and four wheels, the trailer sits on a light but long two-axle chassis. Notably, its officially approved top speed is 130 km/h, well above the usual 100 km/h limit for trailers.
Class O2 trailers are usually fitted with an overrun brake. A category B driving licence allows towing such trailers up to a gross weight of 3,500 kg as a combination, depending on the combination also with code B96 or category BE. The higher approved speed calls for tyres and a brake system rated accordingly, and for a coupling and suspension set up to stay stable at speed.
When buying a used unit, check the overrun brake mechanism: wear on the damper and play in the drawtube are common on heavily used trailers. Check the tyres for load rating and speed rating suited to the approved range, listen to the axle bearings for play, check the long frame for sagging and corrosion, and test the lighting and indicators over the full length of the body.
