According to Spartan, using this type of construction allows for a number of operational benefits, including larger compartments, greater water carrying capacity, and a lower center of gravity for improved vehicle stability.
Spartan Chassis said the PolyBilt body’s strength and flexibility is designed to reduce shock transferred through the vehicle’s body during a high-speed collision. The vehicle’s body is also heat resistant and the body is less likely to rust, corrode, crack, chip, or peel.
