Fuel Economy
Lightweight Bodies:
Save Fuel, Carry More, and Reduce Costs
Choosing a lightweight truck body offers extensive advantages, particularly for diesel-powered fleets. By significantly reducing the weight of your truck body, you save on fuel costs, enhance vehicle performance, and minimise wear and tear on critical components like tyres, brakes, and suspension systems. This extends the lifespan of these parts and lowers ongoing maintenance expenses.
Switching to a lightweight body could reduce this weight by sometimes hundreds of kilograms, allowing for increased payload capacity while improving fuel efficiency. With more room for goods and reduced operational costs, lightweight truck bodies deliver measurable value to your business.
Maximise profitability and efficiency with lightweight bodies—designed to help your fleet advance, carry more, and save big.
Further Range
Lightweight Bodies:
More Range, More Payload for Electric Trucks
Choosing a lightweight truck body offers extensive advantages, enhancing fuel efficiency, performance, and even the lifespan of critical vehicle components. By reducing weight, you save on fuel costs and minimize wear and tear on tyres, brakes, and other vital parts, extending their lifespan and lowering maintenance expenses.
For example, an average 10-pallet body typically weighs 1000kg. Imagine the savings in fuel and upkeep as you lighten this load. Less weight means extended range for electric trucks—making lightweight bodies ideal for maximising efficiency and travel distance.
ENHANCING EFFICIENCies
Key Advantages of Lightweight Truck Bodies

Major corporations are shifting towards electric vehicles (EVs), creating a strong demand for lightweight truck bodies. These bodies are crucial in boosting sustainability and efficiency, as they reduce vehicle weight while maintaining strength and durability, a key factor in maximizing EV efficiency. This trend in the market is something that businesses need to be aware of.
Companies like IKEA and Amazon are leading the way in this trend, adopting lightweight bodies for their EV fleets. Their success stories highlight the enhanced sustainability and significant cost savings, with running costs reduced by up to 70%. This shift towards EVs with lightweight bodies signals a broader move towards greener, cost-effective corporate transportation.
Liderkit Body Kits stand at the forefront of the truck body manufacturing industry, and they are distinguished by their meticulous precision and exceptional quality. Central to their acclaim is integrating advanced automation in their production processes.
