What These Specifications Mean for Buyers
| Recorded Specification | Practical Interpretation | What to Confirm for a Similar Order |
|---|---|---|
| 5,800 mm wheelbase | Defines the recorded axle spacing and strongly affects turning, body support, rear overhang, and axle distribution. | Minimum turning space, cab-to-axle dimension, rear overhang, completed axle loads, and exact chassis code |
| 7,930 × 2,500 × 2,620 mm cargo body | Defines the recorded body envelope, but not necessarily the clear internal loading space. | Whether each value is external or internal, plus clear door openings, lining thickness, floor height, and usable volume |
| 6HK1-TCG61, Euro III, 240 CV | Identifies the recorded engine and emission wording, not destination acceptance or final as-built certification. | Engine data plate, fuel and after-treatment specification, current Costa Rica acceptance, cooling duty, and service support |
| 8F/2R transmission and 295/80R22.5 18PR tyres | Records the gearbox pattern and tyre size relevant to gradeability, road speed, load rating, and replacement supply. | Gearbox model, axle ratios, tyre load and speed indices, spare arrangement, and locally available equivalents |
| Reference overall dimensions of 10,400 × 2,550 × 3,990 mm | Provides a preliminary route envelope only; the source explicitly marks it as reference. | Certified finished dimensions after body installation, legal limits, gate and dock clearance, and route survey results |
| Rear camera, reversing radar, and alloy wheels | Records support equipment without proving final installation or destination compliance. | Component specifications, field of view, alarm coverage, wheel ratings, documentation, and final inspection evidence |
Configuration Suitability and Limitations
This Configuration May Be Suitable For
The recorded 7,930 mm enclosed body may suit high-volume dry cargo, packaged goods, furniture, appliances, or other freight when the verified internal space, payload, floor rating, doors, and route access match the operation. Its fiberglass-reinforced plastic and insulated construction may help separate cargo from ambient conditions, but the project record does not include a refrigeration unit or temperature performance. Rear and side access appear only in the matched media and must be confirmed in the controlled body drawing.
A Different Configuration May Be Needed When
A shorter body or wheelbase may be needed for narrow roads, restricted yards, steep access, or tight turning. Dense cargo may require a higher chassis and axle class rather than the recorded long body. Controlled-temperature, hygienic, fragile, wheeled, or unusually tall cargo may require refrigeration, a different panel system, added restraint, a tail lift, stronger floors, or different doors. The exact chassis family, steering position, emissions equipment, ground clearance, and safety systems must still be selected for the route and current Costa Rica acceptance pathway.
What Is a Box Truck?
A box truck is a rigid commercial vehicle with a separate, enclosed cargo body mounted behind the cab. It may also be called a box van or enclosed cargo truck. Rear or side doors provide access, while the body protects goods from weather and unauthorised access. Unlike a panel van, the cargo enclosure is an independently engineered body installed on a truck chassis. The body therefore changes completed tare, payload, axle distribution, height, length, centre of gravity, and service access. Buyers should approve the chassis sheet, body drawing, mass calculation, floor and restraint ratings, and completed-vehicle documents as one coordinated package.
Recorded Intended Use and Typical Applications
Intended Use Recorded for This Project
Typical Applications of This Vehicle Type
Typical applications include parcels, retail stock, packaged food and drink, furniture, appliances, tools, and industrial components. Each has different volume, mass, point-load, door, restraint, hygiene, moisture, and handling requirements. These examples explain the vehicle type and should not be read as evidence about the Costa Rica buyer's intended use.
Key Specifications Buyers Should Compare
| Decision Factor | Why It Matters | Questions to Ask the Supplier |
|---|---|---|
| Exact chassis identity | The project record includes the engine and wheelbase but no chassis model; the FVR/GIGA media conflict still affects ratings, parts, and documents. | What full model code, VIN-level build record, data plate, model year, and market specification support the recorded configuration? |
| Cargo density and load position | A 7,930 mm body can fill by volume before mass for light cargo, while dense cargo may reach axle or tyre limits with space remaining. | What unit dimensions, masses, positions, and representative load cases were used? |
| Internal, external, and overall dimensions | The project record includes body dimensions and reference overall dimensions, but does not define clear internal space or certify the finished envelope. | What are the controlled body interior, body exterior, door opening, overhang, and certified overall dimensions? |
| Completed mass and axle calculation | Body, doors, driver, fluids, options, and load position determine legal payload. | What are the finished tare, payload, tyre limits, centre-of-gravity assumptions, and front/rear axle results? |
| Insulated composite body and floor | The recorded body material does not define panel thickness, thermal performance, floor strength, or refrigeration. | What panel build-up, insulation, frame, floor, seals, distributed load, point-load rating, and repair method apply? |
| Engine and emissions acceptance | Euro III is recorded wording, not evidence that the completed vehicle is accepted in Costa Rica. | Which engine and emission documents apply, and has the exact configuration been reviewed through the current local process? |
| Route and site geometry | The 10,400 × 2,550 × 3,990 mm reference envelope can conflict with bends, slopes, gates, docks, and overhead clearance. | Has a certified finished vehicle been checked against the complete route survey and operating sites? |
| Maintenance and parts | Chassis and insulated-body uptime require the correct model documentation and repair materials. | Which local engine, drivetrain, tyre, diagnostic, composite-panel, and body-hardware support is available? |
What the Costa Rica importer should confirm before ordering
| Confirmation Item | Why It Matters | Who Should Confirm It |
|---|---|---|
| Customs and first-registration file | Chassis identity, customs evidence, and completed-body characteristics must be consistent. | Importer, customs broker, National Registry specialist, and supplier |
| Euro III engine and technical-inspection route | Euro III is recorded in the project configuration, but the current acceptance path depends on vehicle status, category, engine documentation, and local rules. | MOPT or responsible inspection authority, importer, and qualified local adviser |
| Certified dimensions, masses, and axle limits | The recorded overall dimensions are marked reference, and no completed tare, payload, GVW, or axle calculation was supplied. | Body engineer, transport authority, importer, and supplier |
| Body-conversion and material documentation | The fiberglass-reinforced plastic insulated body changes registered characteristics and requires a controlled construction record. | Body builder, supplier, registration specialist, and authority |
| Terrain, braking, tyres, and support | The 5,800 mm wheelbase, tyre specification, grades, road surfaces, climate, and parts access affect manoeuvrability and uptime. | Fleet operator, supplier, and local service provider |
Common Selection Mistakes
- Calling the order an FVR because the source folder uses that label.
- Calling the order a GIGA because the badge is visible in matched media.
- Treating the media-folder
8 mlabel as a project dimension instead of using the recorded 7,930 mm body length. - Treating the recorded reference overall dimensions as certified finished dimensions.
- Assuming an insulated fiberglass-reinforced plastic body includes refrigeration or guarantees a temperature range.
- Maximising body volume without modelling cargo mass and axle position.
- Treating the recorded engine and Euro III wording as proof of Costa Rica acceptance.
- Quoting payload before the completed body, driver, restraints, options, and axle distribution are calculated.
What Buyers Can Learn From This Project
- A recorded project configuration can establish dimensions and components without resolving a conflicting media model label.
- The 5,800 mm wheelbase and 7,930 mm body must be evaluated with cargo density, route geometry, and completed axle loads.
- Insulated composite body construction does not replace a controlled panel, floor, thermal, and repair specification.
- Chassis identity, body drawing, mass calculations, emission records, and registration documents should use one controlled vehicle identity.
- Costa Rica's current import and inspection path must be confirmed for the exact completed configuration.

What to confirm for a repeat order
The recorded Recorded 5,800 mm wheelbase and 7,930 x 2,500 x 2,620 mm cargo body can be a comparison point, not an automatic specification for another buyer. Recalculate the route, mass, cargo access, Costa Rica acceptance path for the next vehicle.
| Workstream | Inputs to confirm | Record required | Who confirms it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cargo and route | Operating task, route conditions, intended load, work cycle and performance target. | Controlled duty-cycle and performance requirement sheet. | Buyer / fleet operator and vehicle supplier |
| Body and access | Cargo dimensions, clear door openings, internal layout, lining, restraint and optional equipment. | Controlled cargo drawing and signed option list with installation locations. | Buyer, vehicle supplier and body or fit-out provider |
| Mass and range | Target payload or rated capacity, full model codes, completed tare, axle loads and tyre limits. | Controlled technical sheet plus completed mass and axle-load calculation. | Vehicle supplier, body engineer and buyer |
| Costa Rica documents | Steering position, service plan and current Costa Rica import and registration checklist. | Document-responsibility list and written importer confirmation. | Importer, licensed electrician, supplier and competent local authority |
Who confirms what before the next import
KEEYAK coordinates the comparison and open-item review. The vehicle supplier owns product records; the buyer owns the duty cycle; the Costa Rica importer and competent local parties own local acceptance and filing decisions.
| Owner | Responsibility | When |
|---|---|---|
| Buyer / fleet operator | Define the box truck task, cargo, route, payload target, stop pattern and service expectations. | Before configuration selection |
| Vehicle supplier / manufacturer | Confirm the exact model and major component codes, controlled technical data, ratings, warranty and product records. | Before quotation and production release |
| Body or fit-out provider | Confirm cargo dimensions, door openings, installed options, restraint, finished mass and axle-load effects. | Before fit-out approval |
| Costa Rica importer / customs broker | Obtain the current customs, import and filing checklist for the exact completed vehicle. | Before shipment commitment |
| Competent local authority / adviser | Decide vehicle acceptance, registration and road-use requirements. | Before import and registration |
| KEEYAK project team | Compare the buyer inputs with the recorded configuration and identify items that still require supplier or local confirmation. | During configuration review |
Costa Rica ISUZU SCS5180XLC3 project FAQ
Where and when was this ISUZU box truck shipped?
The reviewed customs and bill-of-lading chain records shipment to Puerto Caldera, Costa Rica, in March 2025. Customer identity, document numbers, VIN, amount, payment terms, and vessel details are intentionally omitted from the public case.
Is the chassis an ISUZU FVR or an ISUZU GIGA?
Neither is confirmed. The recorded project configuration identifies ISUZU, a 5,800 mm wheelbase, and a 6HK1-TCG61 engine, but does not name the chassis model. FVR appears only in the media-folder label, while GIGA badges are visible in separate matched photographs. Resolve the conflict with the chassis data plate, VIN-level build record, and controlled project ledger before using either model name.
What dimensions are recorded in this project configuration?
The project configuration records a 5,800 mm wheelbase and cargo-body dimensions of 7,930 × 2,500 × 2,620 mm. It also lists 10,400 × 2,550 × 3,990 mm as reference overall dimensions. The separate media folder's 8 m label is not a project specification. A controlled drawing must still identify internal versus external body dimensions, door openings, rear overhang, and certified finished dimensions.
Which engine and transmission are recorded?
The recorded configuration includes a 6HK1-TCG61 engine, Euro III wording, 240 CV maximum power, and an 8-forward/2-reverse transmission. These are project values, not proof of the final data plate, as-built vehicle, or Costa Rica acceptance. Confirm the engine serial and model data, gearbox model, axle ratios, emission documents, and completed-vehicle inspection records.
Does the insulated body mean this is a refrigerated truck?
No. The project configuration records fiberglass-reinforced plastic with thermal insulation, but it does not include a refrigeration unit or temperature-performance target. Confirm panel construction, insulation thickness, floor and door thermal bridges, heat-load assumptions, refrigeration capacity if needed, test conditions, and the required cargo temperature range before treating the body as temperature controlled.
Why are only four photographs shown?
Two source images contain visible people: one at the cab and one at the edge of the cargo interior. They were excluded pending privacy and rights review.
What Costa Rica requirements remain open?
The project file still needs the applicable customs and first-registration route, vehicle origin status, technical inspection, acceptance of the quoted Euro III configuration, certified dimensions, legal masses and axle limits, body-conversion documentation, steering position, markings, and document legalisation requirements. These should be confirmed for the exact completed vehicle by the importer and responsible Costa Rican authorities.
What should be sent with a request for a similar truck?
Send the cargo matrix, unit masses and dimensions, route survey, required internal space, doors, floor loading, insulation or temperature requirement, handling equipment, payload, preferred chassis, steering position, emissions requirement, terrain, and optional equipment. Ask the supplier to return a controlled chassis sheet, body drawing, mass and axle model, thermal specification where relevant, compliance matrix, and responsibility schedule.
Evidence and public boundaries
The review covered the project PI, customs release, bill of lading, KEEYAK media manifest, and four public-safe configuration images. Customer identity, document numbers, VIN, amount, payment details, vessel information, and contacts are not published. Two images containing people remain excluded. The PI supports the listed configuration, while the customs and carrier records support final model identity, sea shipment, port, and month. They do not prove every manufacturing inspection, body test, arrival, import eligibility, or registration outcome. The media folder's FVR and 8 m labels and the visible GIGA badges remain separate media evidence.
