New Product Information

The RTT Pioneer
High Speed, 5 Tonne, All Terrain Vehicle

• New Design

The Pioneer is a high speed, multi purpose, All Terrain Vehicle designed to fill a gap in the market place between the conventional LandRover type utility vehicle and the larger four wheel drive lorry/Unimog. Originally designed by RTT Design Ltd., it is now in the final stages of development and testing and is being manufactured by Frazier under a licensing agreement with RTT

• Rough Terrain

The chassis is of extremely robust construction to give long life and trouble free service in all types of ground and working conditions. Robust axles are fitted with a heavy duty coil spring suspension system which keeps all four wheels firmly on the ground giving it a rough terrain capability very few comparable machines can match. Gradability is 1 in 2.4 and better depending on load configuration. So whether the work site is a ploughed field, roadway, mountainside, building site or chemical plant the Pioneer will cope without fuss. On top of that the maximum road speed of 104kph (64mph) will get you home quickly and in comfort.

• Multi-Purpose

The Pioneer has a multitude of uses within the construction, civil engineering, industrial, forrestry, public utility and agricultural industries. The 3 tonne carrying capacity allow it to be fitted with a wide range of equipment from aerial work platforms to gritting bodies, snow ploughs, load platforms and crop sprayers to name but a few.

Background

RTT have been manufacturing other models of all terrain access vehicles for many years and have machines working in Scandanavia, Europe, Middle East, Canada and the USA with end users and rental companies. These machines meet and exceed all local regulations for road and site use including German TUEV
