There is a 360-degree camera on the truck to eliminate blind spots and a pneumatically raised and lowered spray suppression system.
Lawrence David will also be displaying a new concept home delivery van body that features a bonded box body with better aerodynamics. There is also a rear camera for greater visibility in urban environments.
New innovations on display will include a modular hybrid second deck that includes a pre-galvanised steel frame with non-slip open-grid floor as well as yellow gratings that improve visibility and highlight a deck that is being loaded at height.
Lawrence David said the design means it is easier to replace individual damaged components.
