Risk reduction systemapplied to new trucks
December 1st 2007 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: |
