NEW on the French market: The Schmitz Cargobull S.BO PACE dry-freighter box body semi-trailer

  • For use in the package and dry freight segment
  • Produced for the European market in a new production plant in Zaragoza, Spain    


November 2023 – The new S.BO PACE dry-freighter box body will make its French market debut at Solutrans 2023. The vehicle is primarily geared towards transport companies in the package and dry freight sectors.

Back at the end of 2021, Schmitz Cargobull presented the new, lightweight S.BO PACE for dry freight and CEP transport operations from the British plant for Great Britain and Ireland. Featuring a fully modular design, the dry freight box body is equipped with TrailerConnect® trailer telematics as standard. The body is made from innovative STRUKTOPLAST panels. Thanks to the light, honeycomb-shaped panels, each trailer weighs around 700 kg less than comparable vehicles in this segment.    

Tough. Resilient. More playload.

The vehicle offers a wide range of load securing options, such as load securing rails, a translucent roof, a tail lift and two different rear options: an aluminium roller shutter or aluminium doors. The vehicle can be equipped with a number of load securing components to secure packages, such as package safety tarpaulins, lashing belts, etc. The floor load capacity is 5.4 t as standard or there is the option to increase it to 7.1 t or 8.0 t for transporting heavier loads.

Schmitz Cargobull’s standard TrailerConnect® telematics system delivers intelligent connectivity and supports swift diagnostics and the rapid processing of data collected from all components.

In addition to the new S.BO PACE, Schmitz Cargobull offers other trailers in this segment, such as the proven S.BO EXPRESS with FERROPLAST panels or the robust steel box body S.BO Steel.
