Zepp Europa (2024): compact three-axle vehicle with a 19,500 kg gross vehicle weight, 6,770 mm length, 4,000 mm wheelbase and a 90 km/h top speed for high payload on a short vehicle length

The Europa entry from 2024 describes a heavy commercial vehicle with a short overall length and three axles, of the kind built for bodies with high dead weight on a limited wheelbase. The combination of six wheels and a length of just 6,770 mm points to a compact chassis designed to carry heavy but spatially limited loads.

With a gross vehicle weight of 19,500 kg and a kerb weight of 11,015 kg, around 8,485 kg remains for body and payload. The short 4,000 mm wheelbase, combined with an overall length of 6,770 mm and a width of 2,530 mm, produces a manoeuvrable, compact vehicle on six wheels, with a design top speed of 90 km/h.

At a gross weight of 19,500 kg, the vehicle belongs to EU class N3, the heavy trucks above 12 tonnes. A short wheelbase on a three-axle chassis is typical of vehicles that need to carry heavy payloads on tight construction or plant sites with a small turning radius, such as tipper, silo or tanker bodies.

When buying such a short, compact three-axle vehicle, the main points are the condition of the axle suspension, which carries a heavier load given the short wheelbase and high payload, and corrosion on the frame and body mounting points. Given the high axle loads over a short vehicle length, the braking system and tyre wear deserve particularly close inspection.
