Super Sonic

Super Sonic 01 Super Sonic 02 Super Sonic 03

The Super Sonic horsebox allows horse owners the opportunity to drive their horses, large or small in a compact yet economical and powerful horsebox.

With a gross maximum weight of the Super Sonic being 4000kg, it has a carrying capacity of 1500Kg and can be driven on a standard car licence.

The horses travel rear facing between the axels giving the lowest possible centre of gravity for a safe and comfortable ride. The fully adjustable partition provides two stalls and the low wide ramp with safety loading doors helps encourage your horse to load and travel happily.

The Sonic has the added benefit of a tack/changing room which is totally separate from the horses and incorporates a cooking area with gas hob and sink, seat storage and two coat hooks. There is additional storage for rugs etc over the cab.

The Super Sonic is built on a brand new Peugeot 3500kg chassis fitted with the latest 3.0HDi diesel engine which conforms to the most recent Euro 4 anti-pollution standards producing 157bhp and 400Nm of torque. This super smooth engine together with 6-speed gearbox is extremely economical, effortless to drive and makes easy work of town traffic, hills and the open road.
