AMBULANCE medicalized 4x4 (HZJ78) diesel RHD

Medicalised ambulance based on an MSF standard vehicle type HZJ78.

The essential part of the conversion consists of the integration of a cell giving space to a functional arrangement and the separation of the steering cabine. The concept and composition of it all allows for a proper cleaning and desinfection of the cell.

The cell or ambulance unit is exclusively intended for medical use.

Capacity of the medical unit:

• Transport of a patient lying on a stretcher.
• Two seats, one for a medical staff member and another for an eventual accompanying passenger.

Capacity in the steering cabin:

• seats for the driver + 2 places

Different levels of medical equipment are defined to allow the stabilisation of the patient, if needed.

Following the example of a standard vehicle, the ambulance incorporates the standard preparation of a vehicle by your technical department, such as the roof, spare wheel(s), hi-lift jack, etc.
