The four-cylinder diesel engine has a displacement of 1,998 cc. With a 4,620 mm wheelbase and 2,400 mm width, the ST-733 weighs 3,175 kg unladen, with a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg. Payload therefore comes to only around 325 kg.
A width of 2,400 mm is well beyond that of an ordinary panel van and approaches the width of some trucks, while a payload of only 325 kg against an unladen weight of 3,175 kg points to an already very heavy body, of the kind found on vehicles with extensive special fittings or a particular interior fit-out. Despite the high unladen weight, the vehicle stays in the N1 class at a gross vehicle weight of 3,500 kg.
When buying such a heavy, wide vehicle, the question of what the high unladen weight was originally built for matters most, as a later conversion can further reduce the remaining payload. The braking system should also be checked especially carefully given the high unladen weight paired with a comparatively small engine, as should the availability of matching wide tyres.
