C1 2-horse truck 3,650 kg & 4,000 kg – More payload, the same luxury
What exactly is a C1 2-horse truck? The familiar appearance and driving comfort of a 2-horse truck, but with significantly more payload and attractive tax advantages. At Hulshof Horsetrucks, we are introducing our new generation of C1 2-horse trucks with a maximum authorised mass of 3,650 kg or 4,000 kg.
These vehicles are comparable in appearance, dimensions, comfort and handling to the familiar 2-horse trucks driven on a category B licence. The main difference is the maximum authorised mass. While a standard 2-horse truck is limited to 3,500 kg, our new versions offer additional capacity for safely transporting horses, passengers and equipment.
Familiar driving comfort, with more possibilities
If you are used to a compact 2-horse truck, you will feel immediately at home in our 3,650 kg and 4,000 kg versions. These vehicles retain the same luxurious appearance, practical layout and manoeuvrability that make our horse trucks so popular.
So you are not suddenly driving a large lorry, but a compact and comfortable horse truck that feels like the familiar category B licence models.
The key advantage is the higher payload. Particularly for luxuriously equipped horse trucks, where the weight of the bodywork and optional extras plays an important role, a higher maximum authorised mass offers considerably more possibilities. This provides more capacity for two horses, saddles, other equipment and passengers, without reaching the maximum load so quickly.
Attractive tax advantages: exempt from BPM and no standard vehicle benefit-in-kind charge
In addition to the extra payload, our 3,650 kg and 4,000 kg horse trucks can also offer particularly attractive tax advantages. When the vehicle qualifies as a lorry for tax purposes, no BPM (Dutch vehicle registration tax) is generally payable upon registration in the Netherlands. In addition, such a lorry is not subject to the standard flat-rate taxable benefit for private use that applies to passenger cars and vans. This makes these versions particularly attractive to entrepreneurs and business riders who want to purchase a luxury horse truck while also considering the tax implications of their investment.
Compact horse truck for the C1 driving licence
Although our 3,650 kg and 4,000 kg horse trucks hardly differ from a standard 3,500 kg version in appearance and driving experience, their higher maximum authorised mass puts them outside the scope of a standard category B driving licence. These vehicles require a category C1 or C driving licence. A C1 driving licence allows you to drive vehicles with a maximum authorised mass of more than 3,500 kg and up to 7,500 kg inclusive. These models therefore offer an attractive solution for anyone wanting more payload without switching to a large traditional horse truck.
C1 2-horse trucks available on various vehicle brands
Our 2-horse trucks with a maximum authorised mass of 3,650 kg or 4,000 kg can be built on various brands and chassis. These include the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter, Renault Master, MAN TGE, Volkswagen Crafter, Fiat Ducato and Iveco Daily. Depending on the chosen brand, model and technical specifications, we assess the options for a version with a higher permitted gross weight. This lets you enjoy the familiar appearance, luxury and driving comfort of a compact 2-horse truck, combined with extra payload and potential tax advantages. At Hulshof Horsetrucks, we are happy to advise you on the possibilities and which version best suits your requirements.
