DFSK introduced what it describes as the ‘Ultimate Staff and Equipment Transport’, to its current range in South Africa that so far consisted of a panel van and a bakkie.
What is it?
This innovative design combines the proven DFSK C35 Panel Van with an additional row of seats for crew members, allowing businesses to transport both staff and tools without compromise. Most important is the sliding doors on both sides.
Safe transport for staff:
For generations, many South African businesses have transported staff in the back of a bakkie, often sharing space with tools, exposed to the elements, and without proper safety measures. Businesses were forced to prioritise load capacity over the safety and comfort of their workers.
Design:
Designed with people in mind, the Crew Bus safely seats up to four passengers while still providing ample cargo space for tools and equipment. Whether you run a team of painters, caterers, gardeners, or technicians, the Crew Bus allows you to transport both your crew and their equipment.
Specs:
Not every crew is a work crew. With features like ABS, air-conditioning, and a top speed of 140 km/h, the DFSK Crew Bus is just as capable for weekend adventures as it is for the worksite.
Whether you’re loading golf clubs for a four-ball, packing bikes and luggage for a family trip, or heading out with friends for a weekend getaway, the Crew Bus has the flexibility to handle it all, DFSK claims.
Engine:
Powered by a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated engine of the DFSK Crew Bus produces 85kW of power and 148Nm of torque.
