Isuzu Commercial Truck of America announced the launch of a new body program in collaboration with Aebi Schmidt. The program allows Isuzu dealers to purchase completed trucks equipped with the Advantic body, which was displayed at Work Truck Week in Indianapolis.

The program is designed to streamline the upfit process by providing preconfigured body and chassis combinations on Isuzu N- and F-Series trucks.


Advantic Body Program

The Advantic body features a seamless exterior designed to improve durability and reduce the risk of leaks.

It is constructed with high-tensile glass fiber panels and an aluminum frame intended to provide strength, dent resistance and long-term performance. The body is also designed to be transferable between chassis over its service life.

Advantic bodies will be assembled in Landisville, Pennsylvania, supporting Isuzu’s Northeast markets.

By integrating body and chassis into a single-source solution, the program offers:

  • Pre-engineered body and chassis combinations
  • A four-week lead time
  • Consistent build quality

Jacob Farmer, president of commercial and fleet at Aebi Schmidt Group, said the program reflects continued collaboration between the companies to address commercial vehicle needs.

Shaun Skinner, president of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America, said the program is intended to help dealers simplify ordering and reduce delivery times by providing work-ready trucks through a single invoice process.
