This isn't based on any particular model but rather is based on a generic large box lorry/truck. Unlike the Box Van, the front uses the cab from a Semi-Tractor instead of a Pickup or Van, while the rear is a much larger non-articulated box. "Non-articulated" means that there are no joints between sections of the vehicle that bend when it turns. | This isn't based on any particular model but rather is based on a generic large box lorry/truck.

A lorry/truck with two axles in the rear would be capable of transporting much heavier loads, but may or may not have a longer box section. Lorries/Trucks larger than that would typically be articulated.

Triferus: In my research, it appears that the front drive wheels are not counted when referring to the axle count on a lorry/truck, only the rear axles. I found far more web search results related to this vehicle by searching for "single-axle box truck" than anything else. Search results for just "single-axle truck" had the correct number of axles but had all sorts of things like dump trucks, tankers, etc. "Two-axle" trucks/lorries have two axles on the rear. "Tandem-axle" trucks/lorries have two or more axles in the rear. "Box" refers to the box on the back. Thus it would probably be more accurate to call this a "One-Axle Box Lorry" or "One-Axle Lorry". | |||
