A Unique Piece of Swedish History: Unveiling the ERT Backpack Truck

Discover our latest announcement: the Swedish Backpack Truck by ERT! This remarkable model embodies a unique piece of trucking history, offering a detailed representation of the iconic Backpack trucks that graced the Swedish roads in the 1980s.

Since the 1970s, the long Swedish 24-meter trucks have been a familiar sight on the roads. Yet, few are acquainted with the intriguing Backpack trucks: motor vehicles featuring a short box followed by a coupling plate on which a trailer can be attached. This ingenious design allowed transporters to carry additional cargo for domestic long-distance transport.

The Backpack box has been specifically developed to fit various long chassis from both Scania and Volvo. The adjustable fifth wheel is placed at the rear of the chassis. As a result, the trailer is as tight as possible against the Backpack box, while it can still turn freely.
