Anh Tuan, a seasoned truck driver on the Hanoi – Da Nang route, shared, “Spending hours behind the wheel, the truck cab becomes my second home. A comfortable and convenient cab helps me stay alert and focused for safer driving.” Indeed, a truck cab is not just a place to control the vehicle but also an essential workspace and resting area for drivers. So, what makes a truck cab special? Let’s explore with Hanoi Trucks!

Truck Cab: The Heart of Transportation

Introduction

The cab is the front part of the truck, housing the driver’s seat, steering wheel, dashboard, and other equipment that aids in driving. Cab design directly impacts visibility, control, and driver comfort, ultimately affecting transportation efficiency.

Types of Truck Cabs

Based on design and position, truck cabs can be classified into:

• COE (Cabin Over Engine): The engine is located beneath or in front of the cabin, maximizing cargo space. This type is common in light and medium-duty trucks like the Hyundai Porter H150 and Isuzu QKR.
• Conventional: The engine is positioned entirely in front of the cabin, providing a more spacious and safer environment for the driver. Often found in heavy-duty trucks like the Hino 700 series and Hyundai HD320.

Functions of a Truck Cab

• Control Center: Houses driving controls such as the steering wheel, gear shift, brakes, and accelerator.
• Visibility: Offers a wide windshield and comprehensive mirrors for optimal driver vision.
• Safety: Designed with safety features like airbags, seat belts, and a robust frame.
• Comfort: Equipped with comfortable seating, air conditioning, and entertainment systems to reduce driver fatigue during long hauls.
