Iveco 70C18 – three-axle chassis on an Iveco Daily base, EU class N2: 3.0-litre four-cylinder engine, 7,200 kg gross weight and 4,100 mm wheelbase
This vehicle is based on an Iveco Daily chassis in the heavy 70-class weight bracket fitted with a third axle, as used by independent bodybuilders for compact vehicles with a high payload. The third axle allows a high payload at a comparatively short overall length, for example for workshop, transport or municipal bodies.

For the 70C18 the register lists a four-cylinder engine with a displacement of 2,998 cc. Kerb weight is 4,205 kg, gross vehicle weight 7,200 kg. The vehicle is 6,700 mm long, 2,350 mm wide and has a wheelbase of 4,100 mm, carried on six wheels. The design top speed is limited to 90 km/h.
At 7,200 kg gross weight the vehicle falls into EU vehicle class N2 for medium commercial vehicles. The combination of a short 6,700 mm overall length and three axles spreads a heavy body load over a wide base without greatly limiting the manoeuvrability of a compact vehicle.
When buying a used example, check the condition of the extra axle and its bearings, the brake system for a vehicle with this payload, and rust on the frame and axle mountings. Chassis and drivetrain parts run through the Iveco dealer network, parts for the individual body through the respective converter. Cab door seals and the condition of the wiring harness routed to the body are also worth a close inspection after years of service.
