Good for the climate, good for the balance sheet.
You have to accept high diesel prices, but you do not have to accept high fuel consumption. The best proof: the LL self-steering axle from BPW, which is clearly superior to a rigid 3-axle trailer – particularly in delivery and distribution traffic. The optimal steering and better handling when cornering and when manoeuvring can reduce fuel costs by up to 10,000 Euros, based on 1 million kilometres**. Another benefit: thanks to the patented self-steering system, the tyres are able to achieve a much higher mileage and undergo more even wear. And, clearly, that means the trailer will need fewer tyre changes. All in all, these results in quality and cost benefits which no fleet can afford to pass up nowadays.
