A chassis badged Canter above 7.5 tonnes: a four-cylinder diesel of 2,998 cm³, six wheels and a 7,490 kg gross vehicle weight in class N2, from 2025
Chassis badged Canter often appear in register entries not under the name of the original vehicle manufacturer, but under that of the operator who fitted a body to someone else's chassis. For this 2025 entry, only the base vehicle can therefore be described from the figures, not the origin of the body.

The four-cylinder diesel engine of 2,998 cm³ drives a chassis on six wheels, with a wheelbase of 3,400 mm and a width of 2,080 mm. At a length of 6,370 mm and a gross vehicle weight of 7,490 kg, a payload of around 2,635 kg remains against the 4,855 kg kerb weight, and top speed is limited to 90 km/h.
At 7,490 kg the vehicle sits in the EU weight class N2, between 3.5 and 12 tonnes. Chassis of this size, with a short wheelbase and six wheels, are a common base for box bodies, refrigerated bodies or municipal equipment carriers that need more payload than a van but less frame length than a long-haul lorry.
When buying a used example of this type of chassis, the condition of the connection between frame and body matters most, since bodies fitted afterwards place extra load on the mounting points of the original frame. Also worth checking are the brakes across six wheels, the condition of the twin tyres on the rear axle, and the tightness of the diesel engine's exhaust after-treatment.
