What are the length, width, and height of a 9.6-meter cargo compartment?
2 Answers
9.6-meter truck cargo compartment dimensions are as follows: 1. The chassis height of a 9.6-meter single-axle box truck is generally around 1.3-1.5 meters. 2. The internal width of the cargo compartment is approximately 2.3-2.4 meters. 3. The internal loading height of the compartment is about 2.5-2.7 meters. 4. The cargo compartment can hold approximately 50-55 cubic meters of goods. 5. The effective loading length is around 9.5 meters. 6. The total height from the ground to the top is less than or equal to 4 meters. 7. The load capacity comes in three models: 12 tons, 18 tons, and 23 tons. Note: If over-height loading is required, the truck's maximum height limit is 4.7 meters, which needs to be negotiated with the owner.
I've been a freight driver for over a decade and have driven many 9.6-meter trucks. The standard dimensions are a length of 9.6 meters, a width of about 2.4 meters, and an external height of around 2.5 meters, with an internal clearance height possibly reaching 2.4 meters. This size makes them quite maneuverable on city main roads, and turning isn't too difficult. However, you need to be careful about the height when loading to avoid hitting overhead barriers, which could lead to accidents. For daily hauling of bulk goods like luggage or construction materials, the volume is roughly around 57 cubic meters. Choosing this size of truck has saved me a lot of time and fuel, especially since it's quite stable on highways. I think it's a great choice for new drivers—versatile and practical.
