Refrigerated Van
For the transport of fresh and frozen products! A Refrigerated Van
is an utility vehicle equipped with an isothermal case and a power generating unit to produce cold and thus to be able to transfer onto long distances from the perishable goods (fruits, vegetables, saltings, meats...), chemicals, or other materials sensitive to the variation in temperature or requiring constant temperatures.  The refrigerating body can be equipped with closets with meat tubular and euro-hooks.  These bodys are simple or Bi-temperatures in order to allow the carriage of goods in different temperatures.  This equipment multi-temperature allowing a compatibility of products thanks to a partition in the same vehicle.  The refrigerating temperatures of these van can be maintained according to requirement’s conservation necessary for each product:  from - 25° to + 25°.  To be able to ensure the distribution, the refrigerating utility véhciule can also be equipped with a lifting tailgate.

Light Commercial Vehicle
A light commercial vehicle is, by definition, a vehicle designed and arranged to transport goods and/or people, and this for a primarily professional use. The using domains of commercial vehicles are included in the categories of "light vehicles" varies, according to organizations'.  If the membership of the category of the vehicle refers either to the total weight authorized in load, or with the payload, The superior thresholds beyond which one passes from a light vehicle to a heavy lorry vary.  The limit of the 3.5 tons total weight authorized in load is taken again by the highway code, which specifies in particular the category of the necessary licence to drive a light utility  as well as the weights and dimensions of this one; the width of these vehicles should not exceed 2.55 meters (2.60 meters for the refrigerated vehicles) and the length, 12 meters. The total weight authorized in load is the total of the weight of the vehicle to the stop and in functioning order and of the weight of the loading, including the weight of the driver. The payload is the maximum weight of goods declared acceptable by the proper authority of the country of registration.

Commercial Car
A commercial car, or company vehicle, are commercial vehicles. The vehicle should comprise only 2 places without back places. The automobile license must comprise the mention:  "commercial vehicle".  VAT on the purchase is deductible.  VAT on the repair and maintenance costs is deductible.  Damping of the vehicle is not limited. There is no tax on the commercial cars.

Dump/Tipper Commercial Vehicle
It is a vehicle intended to transport goods of the type:  sand, gravel, rock, powder, ground, dechets...  It can be on several possible configurations according to the devolution field and the maximun capacity in load.  Such a vehicle is used for all work of roadway system, which the equipment vary according to are use and the competence domain. An utility Dump/Tipper can be equipped with a simple Dump/Tipper (back), 2 way tipper or 3 way tipper (back dump, left side dump and right and left side dump).

Industrial vehicles.
The progressive development of industrial vehicles, from the beginning of the XXth century, remodelled the organization of the ground transport of goods and travelers. For such a long time considered as competitors of railroads, industrial vehicles showed themselves additional. *

A big variety. 
We find first all vans which exceed the lower limit of definition of heavy goods vehicles (vehicles weighing more than 3 500 kg in load, which for the driving a special licence is required, and the minibuses of a dozen places, from which the driving requires a "public transports" licence. We have beyond a vast range of buses, trucks with or without trailer, of tractors and more heavy semi-trailers, up to the vehicles of maximal weight authorized, according to the standards which they impose, each, on their works of infrastructure.

French and European standards. 
In France, the standards of 1974 limit at 19 T the gross weight of two axles vehicles, 26 T that of the three axles vehicles, 38 T that of the articulated vehicles. Transport of persons in trailers is then forbidden, except an infringement authorizing the utilisation, in France, of articulated urban buses, convey which were already used in the other countries of Europe. The standards of the various countries of Western Europe show themselves compatible, what allows to create international road transports rules. A unified European normalization is at present for the study.

Particular constructions and special equipments. 
Light vans construction recover from the classic car manufacturing. They are generally delivered ready for used. On the other hand, buses and heavy trucks recover from particular technical construction, aiming to obtain exceptional life cycles, which allow only to to pay off their very high cost (they are realized only in small series). Some trucks and bus as well as road tractors of semi-trailers are definitively delivered ready for used with the aim of classic service. But some customers, who aim at particular applications, order autonomous frames which they make equiped by other specialized body builders. It can be the case of the buses of big tourism possessing specific equipments: tilting seats, bathroom, powerful air conditioning for use in the warm countries, etc. But it is much more often the case of the trucks which frequently deviate from the standard model, made up of a fixed plate with racks, possibly covered. Let us quote, for example, trucks with dump truck, or a removable tipper truck (which one can deposit individually, with its equipment, a built-in machine of handling), container trucks, generally deprived of incorporated handling machines, refuse collector trucks, intended for the domestic garbage collection (equipped with hoisting and handling equipment adapted to the type of conditioning with the refuse retained in each city), tank trucks for transport of various liquids (petroleum products, liquid food), jetting machine trucks, equipped with a capacity of aspiration per vacuum setting, powder tank trucks, equipped with a pneumatic handling system, multistage platform trucks for cars transport, platform trucks for machines transport or public works who don't have the right to move on road because of their too slow own speed, breakdown vans, freezer trucks having an autonomous refrigeration unit, generally adapted to transport, around - 17 °C, for the frozen products, etc.

Robust vehicles.
In all the cases, the frames are designed to resist tiredness during prolonged use on several hundreds of thousands of kilometers.  All the machine parts are also designed for exceptional longevities, between revisions.  The brakes, hydraulically-operated attended (and not with direct action, as on the majority of the cars) or pneumatic control, are largely dimensioned.  They often have devices of help prohibiting a general failure, and they are relieved, at the time of the prolonged descents, by the use of speed reducers.  Almost all the trucks are equipped with a cabin over engine, above the engine, whose access is often facilitated by the possibility of rocking the whole of the cabin forwards.  The comfort of these cabins is now very thorough:  ventilation, heating, air-conditioning, radio operator equipment, possibly berths allowing control continue by two drivers, etc. The steerings are always powered, and gearboxes use, which can have a lot of ratios, often is operated by computer, even automated.
