    Hello
    I am planning to buy a new tow truck with a GVW of up to 3.5t. Is there any model with a load capacity of 1800-1900 kg? Which one has the most?

    I have a Kaczka 2.4D with a load capacity of 1,800 kg :)
    If everything goes well with the purchase of the (unknown) frame, I will sell the Kaczka.

    The advantage is that in the ID card there is a foldable car, a new VIN number was assigned by diagnosticians some time ago, there is a special vehicle, roadside assistance and load capacity of 1800 and a towbar is stuck in the ID card, so the receipts are great, the only thing better would be receipts for SAM. ;)
    technically, everything is functional, it's also nice because it has a low ramp (directly on its frame), there isn't much rust because everything is reinforced with angle brackets, I transported the Sharan and it didn't bother me, except that the cruising speed is a maximum of 80 km/h without tiring the engine, maybe it would be better with box 5. Surprisingly, the lack of assistance is not as bothersome as in the Żuk

    Unfortunately, as I wrote, I am interested in new tow trucks, so the T4 or the duck is out of the question :)

    Read about the regulations first because I don't know if you'll find this type of load.
    The problem is that the car itself weighs quite a lot and its load capacity decreases, which is logical with a GVM of 3.5T.

    So look, the regulations have changed - if you buy one powered by alternative fuel, the permissible weight increases to 4150kg.
    Helpful post? Buy me a coffee.

    Among the new ones, you also have a VW Transporter with a GVW of 3,500 and a load capacity of 1,800, also a diesel.

    But what exactly should I find in the regulations?

    @kuba9449 Look, I didn't know that, generally it was forced by the EU a long time ago and they were supposed to finally implement it, but as always they had to fix everything...

    the transporter is a bit short and narrow for a trailer... and the rear is on wishbones and springs, not a rigid axle on springs... not very good

    A lot of people make tow trucks on Masters because they are light and strong

    Unfortunately, there are no tow trucks with such a capacity.

    Why don't you buy something for C if you want to carry 2 tons? This has always surprised me. PJ C is not a problem.

    Then it must have a tachograph - and this is not always desirable ;)

    It's like DPF and crocodiles that like to look for magnets. Some reverse logic sometimes prevails on the topic. Viatol and B will catch you if you exceed 3.5t. The fees for a special vehicle are not outrageous.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the search for new tow truck models with a Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of up to 3.5 tons and a load capacity between 1800-1900 kg. Users mention the Volkswagen T4 2.5 TDI and VW Transporter as potential options, both offering a load capacity of 1800 kg. However, concerns are raised regarding the weight of the vehicles themselves, which can limit the effective load capacity. Additionally, regulations regarding permissible weights for vehicles powered by alternative fuels are noted, which could allow for higher capacities. Some users suggest considering larger vehicles or different licensing categories to accommodate heavier loads, while others express skepticism about finding suitable models within the specified parameters.
