WELL-BALANCED. OPTIMUM DISTRIBUTION.

CARTHAGO PAYLOAD & WEIGHT AND BALANCE

ADDITIONAL SAFETY AND COMFORT DUE TO OPTIMUM WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION

No fear of the scales: a Carthago has reserves, even for large luggage items! Heavy payload can be found in the specification whenever a new Carthago is constructed. Because this forms the basis for outstanding comfort, independence and safety when you are travelling. It is a natural constituent of the Carthago Premium DNA. A harmonious weight balance is a matter of course for a Carthago. The basis is formed by a load-bearing chassis with two or even three axles, which provide an individual solution for the respective requirement.

Clever wheelbases ensure that the weight distribution is favourable, utilise the maximum axle loads and lead to a safe and confident driving style at the same time. Intelligent lightweight construction technology reduces the weight of the vehicle. Carthago also means not having to forego anything with regard to payload, since holidaymakers do not have to restrict themselves, even on long trips: you can simply take your favourite things from clothing to Pedelecs with you in the huge storage compartments. And the reserves in the Carthago are always sufficient for your holiday souvenirs.

MAXIMUM PAYLOAD RESERVES - WITH THE BEST POSSIBLE BALANCING*

(on the example of a chic c-line I 4.9 LE)

 * Payload reserves per axle depending on the vehicle configuration

BALANCED WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION

Large storage compartments and sufficient payload alone are not enough. Carthago uses wheelbases which are coordinated in a model-specific way. The result is an optimum weight balance between the front and rear axles – the prerequisite for practical use of the storage space.

THE CARTHAGO DOUBLE FLOOR

Together with the high-stability self-supporting main body construction, it contributes to providing a high degree of stability and torsional rigidity, and is extremely lightweight at the same time. A “special light” AL-KO low frame is used exclusively for the lightweight models. Result: minimal vehicle weight – maximum payload.

YOUR ADDED VALUE

Travel comfort - no restrictions as far as holiday luggage is concerned, and optimum utilisation of the potentially recordbreaking storage compartments in the Carthago motorhome

Weight and balance – weight optimisation - Additional payload due to balanced weight distribution between front and rear axle

Many individual weight variants - Result in individual reserves for each model and each configuration

Maximum safety on the road - No risk due to overloading and over-stressed components, safe driving style

Note: The permissible gross vehicle weight is a value defined by the manufacturer which the vehicle must not exceed, even when loaded. It therefore has an influence on the approvable number of seats, the possibilities for selecting special equipment and the remaining additional load capacity. Detailed information about weights can be found here.
