The weight of the cab on the front axle is counterbalanced in refuse collection applications by the weight of the compactor hanging off the back. They are going to offer it as a distribution vehicle too.
Great. And how careful do you have to be loading an 18t these days because of front axle overloading, put the body that much further forward and you will have an 18 pallet body on which you can only carry 12 pallets without overloading the front axle. Either that or the body will be mounted so far back to prevent overloading that all the Euro6 goodness gets lost because of the gap between cab and body big enough to park a sprinter in.
