Mack Axle Back-Propels Trucking Forward

摘要

Mack Trucks, Inc., a member of the Volvo Group headquartered in Gothenburg, Sweden, has unveiled an axle back version of its Granite model — the number one selling heavy-duty Class 8 conventional straight truck in the United States. The Granite Axle Back™ vehicle gives customers an additional option for maximizing the productivity and profitability of their operations. In some states, and particularly in Canada, the laws governing roadway use are such that having the front axle set back makes it possible to legally carry more payload. And more payload means higher profits. The axle back position also results in a shorter overall wheelbase, making it easier to maneuver around tight job sites.
