ORIGINAL SIROCCO II FAN INSIDE !
CHASSIS
The Pioneer Verve features a custom hot-dipped-galvanised chassis and uniquely tuned Trakmaster Trak-Two independent trailing arm coil suspension with twin shocks . Mr Waldron makes a strong point about the durability of hot-dipped galvanised chassis ; he says it is the “ gold standard of corrosion protection ” and features a “ 393 per cent increase in protection , when compared to DuraGal ” and similar alternatives .
The suspension also takes into account the overall dimensions of the body , including height , and is tuned to reduce instances of sway during long corners or moments of wind buffeting .
“ By managing these factors at the design stage , we can ensure that the Pioneer Verve will tow superbly behind 4WDs that are appropriately specified ,” Mr Waldron said .
