Emphasis on safer handling January 1st 2008 Nissan is putting the emphasis
firmly on safe materials handling by
applying a Risk Reduction System
to every area of a truck's function.
The concept is applied
individually to each new truck and
combines design elements for
increased visibility and
manoeuvrability with a range of
physical features to maximise
stability, control and handling.
A key development has been the
introduction of Cushioned Stability
Control on the company's latest
BX, four wheel electric model. A
flexible damping system between
the truck's rear axle and frame
provides a high level of lateral
stability for both the truck and its
load, allowing safer cornering at
speed and reducing the possibility
of the truck overturning.
Nissan's Cushion Stability
Control is always engaged and
maintenance-free.
Fuzzy logic on electric models
provides safe, smooth acceleration,
while Nissan Syncro steering
assists manoeuvrability in restricted
areas. More articles from Nissan Motor (GB) Limited: |
