Performance characteristics of the BOXER Driver Training Vehicle
The driving training module provides space in the driver's training cab for the driving instructor and a student driver (or examiner). There is space for two more student drivers at the rear of the driving training module.
The driver training vehicle is equipped with active occupant protection in the cabin.
Driver’s station displays are duplicated at the driving instructor’s station, enabling the instructor to keep an eye on the operating conditions of the vehicle.
The override devices provided allow the driving instructor to intervene in the student’s driving behaviour, or even to counteract his operating forces.
Facts and equipment features of the BOXER Driver Training Vehicle
The driver training vehicle serves as a training aid for obtaining a driver’s licence for the BOXER. It is only used for training purposes in peacetime operations.
The driving behaviour and the total weight of the driver training vehicle are virtually unchanged from the serial production vehicle, so that the trained driver does not need any further acclimation phase when switching to the serial production vehicle.
