FREIGHTLINER’S STAND-UP M2
Freightliner has just announced stand-up right-hand drive (SURHD) as a factory-warranted option on Business Class M2 106 and 106V trucks. Designed for refuse, recycling and other specialized medium-duty applications requiring curbside entry and exit, the option comes with a two-year, unlimited-mileage warranty.
The right side of the cab is replaced by an upright unit containing a steering wheel, gauges, and fuel and brake pedals, allowing the driver to operate the vehicle from a standing position. The seated, left-hand portion of the cab is maintained for longer commutes.
SURHD is currently offered through Freightliner Trucks dealers as a conversion and is executed by third-party body builders.
