Light trucks: van bodies, refrigerators and bodies

The COND plant makes and fits bodies on all popular light trucks in Kazakhstan: GAZelle Next and Business, KIA Bongo, Hyundai Porter, FAW and JAC N35. On a category B light truck we fit an insulated van, refrigerator, dry-freight body, curtain-side, bread van or ice-cream van — the body is designed for the specific chassis with the factory warranty preserved. Installation in Almaty, delivery across Kazakhstan.

A mini-truck for a van body: which chassis fit

A light truck (mini-truck, light goods vehicle) is a commercial vehicle with a payload of up to about 1.5 tonnes, for which a category B licence is enough. Such vehicles are chosen for economy, city manoeuvrability and a low loading height. COND fits bodies on the whole class — a chassis comparison for the body is below:

Exact specs depend on configuration and batch. Check the chassis price with dealers and the body price with a COND manager.

Which body to fit on a light truck

The body type depends on the cargo. On a light truck we fit any of the bodies:

A small goods vehicle for transporting food

A light truck is most often used for food delivery around the city. For chilled goods (dairy, vegetables, drinks) an insulated body with a 50–80 mm panel is enough — it holds temperature for 6–8 hours without a unit. For meat, fish and freezing you need a refrigerator: an 80–100 mm insulated body plus a Carrier, Elinzh or Kaida unit for the −18…−20 °C mode. For ice cream — a eutectic van that holds deep cold with the engine off. A detailed breakdown is in the article 'How to choose a 1.5-tonne truck'.

A light truck: category B and economy

The main advantage of a light truck is a category B licence: no category C driver is needed, so hiring staff is easier and cheaper. Low fuel consumption and affordable servicing in any Kazakh city lower the cost per kilometre. Compact dimensions allow working on narrow streets and entering yards where a heavy truck won't fit. And COND bodies are designed for the Kazakh +40 °C summer — the unit reaches its mode and holds cold rather than running itself into the ground.

A turnkey light-truck refrigerator

COND builds a light-truck refrigerator entirely: we select the chassis (or fit it on yours), design an insulated body for the volume and mode, install the refrigeration unit, charge it and handle the vehicle-passport entry. All in one place, with a warranty on the body and equipment. Calculate the volume and pallet capacity in the van configurator, and you can compare chassis with each other in the comparison section.

Ready flatbed light trucks Shineray T30 and T50

Need a ready flatbed vehicle rather than a body on your own chassis? We stock light flatbed Shineray trucks with a metal three-side drop-down platform — both models require only a category B licence. COND also builds an insulated or refrigerated body turnkey on the same chassis.

FAQ about light trucks

Which light trucks are suitable for a van body and refrigerator?
All popular light trucks of the up-to-1.5-tonne category B class suit a COND body: GAZelle Next and Business, KIA Bongo K2500, Hyundai Porter (H100), FAW 1027 (T80) and JAC N35. On any of them we fit an insulated van, refrigerator, dry-freight body, curtain-side or bread van — the body is designed for the specific chassis.
What is the advantage of a light truck over a medium one?
A light truck is more economical on fuel and servicing, more manoeuvrable in the city, and above all a category B licence is enough — no category C driver needed. The low loading height is convenient for manual loading without a ramp. It's the optimal choice for urban food distribution, delivery and mobile trade.
How many pallets fit in a light truck's body?
A standard 3.2 m body (GAZelle, Porter, FAW) holds 4 europallets 1200×800 in one tier, an extended 4.2 m one (GAZelle Next A21R33) up to 6. The exact number depends on body width and panel thickness — calculate it in the van configurator on our site.
Can a refrigerator be made on a small truck?
Yes. A light truck gets an insulated body of 50–100 mm sandwich panels plus a refrigeration unit (Carrier, Elinzh or Kaida) for the required mode — from 0…+5 °C cooling to −18…−20 °C freezing. The result is a compact turnkey refrigerator for city food delivery.
Is the chassis warranty preserved after a body is fitted?
Yes. COND is an official body installer: installation follows the manufacturer's guidelines, the factory chassis warranty is preserved, and the vehicle-passport entry is changed officially. We give a separate warranty on the body and equipment.
Are ready flatbed light trucks available?
Yes, we stock Shineray T30 (payload 1 300 kg) and T50 (1 865 kg) flatbed trucks with a metal three-side drop-down platform — both on a category B licence. COND also builds an insulated or refrigerated body turnkey on the same chassis. Check availability and price with a manager.
