Plastic fuel tanks are manufactured in-house – from a modern composite material based on polyester resins, fiberglass and carbon fabrics. They have a high degree of reliability and are close to steel in terms of resistance/shock resistance.
! Each fuel tank is tested for leaks after production to ensure that there are no fuel leaks and/or vapours.
The fuel tanks are manufactured in Latvia in full compliance with the technical regulations and norms of the European Union.
