For maximum security, you can choose between a version with windows or a "Zero Windows" version (fully enclosed), drastically reducing the risk of theft and protecting your valuable cargo from prying eyes.
Optimized installation and PHEV compatibility
Engineering ALU-CAB Allows for quick installation in approximately 45 minutes without drilling into the chassis.
