7.5 tonne rigid-truck dimensions and cargo examples
Inspect a compact rigid-truck reference with a separate cargo payload and door opening.
Interior 570 × 220 × 230 cm; door 180 × 210 cm. The examples below use this exact application profile.
Plan a load in this vehicleDimensions and planning limits
- Internal length × width × height
- 570 × 220 × 230 cm
- Door width × height
- 180 × 210 cm
- Rectangular internal volume
- 28.84 m³
- Application planning payload
- 2,300 kg
The gross vehicle class is not the mass available for freight. Compare the stored cargo payload with your real shipment mass.
This example’s opening can be more restrictive than the interior, so inspect entry orientation before planning tall or wide packages.
Pallet floor-grid examples
Single floor layer with bare pallet dimensions, zero clearances and unknown mass. Compare the uniform grid with a validated floor example that may combine two orientations. Neither result proves the global optimum or practical loaded-pallet capacity.
| Pallet footprint | Length × width × height (cm) | One floor layer | Validated floor example |
|---|---|---|---|
| EUR pallets · 120 × 80 cm | 120 × 80 × 14.4 | 8 | 11 |
| Industrial pallets · 120 × 100 cm | 120 × 100 × 15 | 8 | 9 |
| US pallets · 48 × 40 in | 121.92 × 101.6 × 15 | 8 | 8 |
Stackable carton-grid examples
Each row uses one box size throughout the vehicle, horizontal rotation and permitted stacking. A different cargo mix, handling gap or stacking restriction can change the result.
| Uniform box | Length × width × height (cm) | Stackable grid count | Outside box volume (m³) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 60 × 40 × 40 cm cartons | 60 × 40 × 40 | 225 | 21.6 |
| 40 × 30 × 30 cm cartons | 40 × 30 × 30 | 686 | 24.696 |
| 50 × 40 × 40 cm cartons | 50 × 40 × 40 | 280 | 22.4 |
| 120 × 80 × 100 cm crates | 120 × 80 × 100 | 16 | 15.36 |
Outside box volume sums the illustrated boxes. It does not establish freight charge, packing efficiency or mass compliance.
Profile sources and assumptions
Example reference profile; actual equipment can differ. Catalogue sources checked .
- GPS Logistics · Fleet (catalogue check: )
Values and examples use the same catalogue profile as the planner. Planning payload is an application limit, not a route-specific permitted payload. Confirm the actual equipment and carrier requirements.
How the static examples are calculated
One vehicle, one uniform item size per example, horizontal rotation, and the stored door opening. Pallets use one floor layer; box examples permit stacking. Item mass is unknown, so payload, axle load, top-load and securing checks are not evaluated.
Wall, ceiling and door clearances are 0 cm, 0 cm and 0 cm; the profile gap is 0 cm. Uniform examples compare rectangular grids. The additional pallet floor example also tests two longitudinal lanes with different orientations and validates every position. Neither construction proves the best possible arrangement. The model is capped at 2,500 units; a reached cap is labelled in the table.
Questions about this calculation
Is the vehicle class the payload?
No. Gross vehicle class and usable cargo payload are separate. Use the planning value shown here only as an initial profile, then confirm the vehicle’s actual allowance.
Can the grid represent my carrier’s entire fleet?
No. It is an example reference. Different bodywork, tail lifts and equipment can change the dimensions and available payload.
