Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

a lighter, more manoeuvrable alternative to the more established and bigger 7.5-tonners on offer in this sector, many truck makers are seeking to complement their more robust 7.5-tonners with a smaller vehicle offering better payload. Iveco is no exception and the 6.5-tonne GVW Daily plugs the gap in the [tam truck maker's line-up below the Eurocargo.

The Daily is powered by an impressive 3.0-litre Sohm diesel engine, giving a choice of 134 or 164hp power options that convert to excellent on-road performance, particularly from the 164hp version. The gearshift. while improved from early Daily vans, remains its major weakness and we await the full availability of an automated transmission to rescue the situation.

We tested a van version of the 65C in 2005, though there are, of course, chassis cab versions available. giving a wide variety of body types. Cab comfort is a strength of the Daily and till interior should wear well and be sufficiently robust to withstand the rigours of daily life.
