The 36 month project will carry out research and develop a completely new chassis system concept for a 7.5 - 12t [G.V.W.] truck. A light weight future truck chassis concept will deliver at least 30% weight saving compared with the current Best in Class truck chassis. The aim of this project is to prove out the feasibility of this concept, so it can be incorporated into future truck chassis designs created at Leyland Trucks. Its design will allow the installation of all the planned next generation of Low Carbon vehicle driveline technologies, from full EV through hybrid vehicles and refined diesel vehicles. Significant weight saving will be achieved by the use of various Aluminium alloys deployed by using diverse manufacturing methods, i.e. extrusions, cast nodes and brackets. The project includes a number of innovations to deliver the weight saving and integrate truck chassis and body under structure.

这个为期36个月的项目将为7.5 - 12吨[G.V.W.]卡车与目前同类最佳卡车底盘相比，未来轻型卡车底盘概念将至少减轻30%的重量。该项目的目的是证明这一概念的可行性，以便将其纳入莱兰卡车未来的卡车底盘设计中。它的设计将允许安装所有计划中的下一代低碳汽车传动系统技术，从全电动汽车到混合动力汽车和精制柴油汽车。通过使用不同的制造方法，即挤压、铸造节点和支架，使用各种铝合金将实现显著的重量减轻。该项目包括一系列创新，以减轻重量并将卡车底盘和车身集成在结构下。
