Global Vehicle Trust (GVT) was established to provide simple, affordable, and versatile transport for rural areas in developing countries.
This has been done with the support of grants from Innovate UK and Advanced Propulsion Centre.
[1] Designed as an innovative flat-pack product (so as to be transported more efficiently as six will fit in a standard shipping container), the truck is a high capacity and designed for use on the poorly maintained and unpaved roads often found in rural areas of emerging markets.
The structure is made of Engineered Laminated Panels bonded to a steel frame.
