The vehicle will be locally fitted with a Cummins ISL Euro V engine and an Allison 3000 series transmission. It will be available in a variety of power ratings and configurations including 4x2, 6x4 and 8x4 configurations and as a dual control option these has been developed to meet the unique demands of the residential side loader market."

The Elite 2 is designed from the ground up to meet the special needs of the refuse industry with a true low cab entry with step arrangement that significantly reduces the effort that are associated with entering and exiting the cab - a feature that can truly make a quantifiable difference in operator efficiency, comfort and safety. In addition the spacious cab is equipped with large glass areas and tailored mirrors for superior all around visibility and plenty of room for crew and all of their gear.
