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:
