Emergency vehicle procurement is not simply a choice between light and heavy towing capacity. Importers and recovery operators must also decide whether to purchase upper equipment, a detachable towing system, or a ready-to-deploy used vehicle. Each route affects capital cost, chassis compatibility, shipping, installation, and long-term service planning.

Equipment for New Vehicle Builds

For distributors assembling vehicles locally, the flatbed wrecker body offers 3, 5, 8, and 10-ton configurations. It is intended for road assistance and vehicle recovery applications, with color customization and onsite installation support available. Before ordering, buyers should confirm chassis dimensions, axle ratings, hydraulic requirements, and local certification rules.

Heavy commercial recovery requires a different approach. The heavy-duty DTU is a detachable fifth-wheel towing unit designed for tractor-based operation. The available specification indicates 35-ton towing and loading capacity, with twin winch options ranging from 10 to 20 tons. This format can be attractive when operators want to use a compatible tractor rather than dedicate a complete heavy wrecker to every assignment.

A Used Option for Road Service

Buyers seeking a lower-entry-cost vehicle can consider the used KV100 wrecker. This 4×2 diesel truck has a manual transmission, 3,800 mm wheelbase, single cab, and 5-ton rear axle. Listed units are from the 2017–2018 model years with approximately 50,000–80,000 km, although condition and availability should be verified before purchase.

The right selection depends on target vehicles, operating terrain, workshop capability, and import regulations. Explore our tow truck range, then send your required capacity, preferred chassis, destination market, and purchasing schedule for a focused quotation.
