With two axles against the toll increase

In future, efficiency will be more important than ever in the haulage industry, as the HGV toll will be increased again in December 2023 and July 2024. However, not every haulier needs the payload of a three-axle trailer: almost 90% of all transport orders can be covered with a two-axle trailer. With the MegaRunner Twin , Fliegl offers a trailer that combines quality, efficiency and a high payload (23,735 kg) - and with which you can save a lot on tolls and diesel.

Compared to the MegaRunner as a three-axle trailer, an articulated lorry with the MegaRunner Twin consumes 3 litres less per 100 kilometres with the same load. This efficiency was certified by Dekra in a driving comparison. With an annual mileage of 120,000 kilometres, fuel savings of 25,200 euros (diesel price 1.75 €/l) can be calculated over 4 years. You can also save on tolls: the twin train costs €2,880 less per year than the three-axle vehicle, i.e. €11,520 over 4 years (Euro VI, best CO2 class). This results in a total saving of 36,720 euros.

The two-axle vehicle offers the same high-quality equipment as a three-axle vehicle. The load floor with longitudinal beams allows a high point load capacity, a 140 mm high crash blocker on the bulkhead ensures safety, as does the Load-Lock profile in the slightly sloping outer frame, into which tension belts can be hooked. The body is Code XL certified, the sliding roof is easy to open, and thanks to the robust Roof non-elastic , the roof rail does not bend even when the stanchions are fully open. Fliegl offers a 15-year warranty against rusting through on the passivated and hot-dip galvanised frame.

When building the trailers(100 % Made in Germany), Fliegl ensures that robustness and ease of maintenance and repair are not mutually exclusive. There are only three different stanchions for all Fliegl trailers, troubleshooting and repairs are quicker thanks to coloured compressed air lines, and many components can be used regardless of the manufacturer, which is why they are available in most workshops. In the rare event of a breakdown, a 24/7 breakdown hotline is available which, in cooperation with the ADAC truck service, will do everything possible to get the vehicle back on the road as quickly as possible. Thanks to a Europe-wide service network with 8000 workshops in 39 countries, Fliegl customers are optimally looked after at all times.
