The Comet 4 CNG – our natural gas solution in the field of baggage
transportation and cargo movement – indoors and on the airport
apron. Our innovative CNG drive concept provides a powerful
alternative to common Diesel drives with the possibility of
operating the towing tractor inside hangars and baggage terminals
as well as on the airport apron. With its additional loading
platform for materials, tools or single pieces of baggage the
Comet 4 CNG is a very effective vehicle for ground support.
MULAG-Quality makes an impact
Fully developed technology and more than 45 years of experience
with the production of airport vehicles combined
with the latest technical know-how are complemented by
the highest manufacturing quality, certified by DIN EN ISO
9001:2000. Thus we can guarantee high cost effectiveness with
the use of our products:
high availability and reliabilty
low cost of maintenance
MULAG double cabin tractor Comet 4DK CNG
Our double-cab tractor helps you saving: With an additional
second row of seats it is possible to transport up
to 5 operators along with materials, tools or single pieces
of baggage on the integrated loading platform.
The design of our airport vehicles was based on an independent
chassis especially developed for that purpose: Thus we achieve
optimal load balance and outstanding dynamical characteristics,
as well as quick and easy access to all important service
points and components.
