ARI 458 Pickup with tarpaulin and water tank at Blumen Dietz in Mönchengladbach

The ARI 458 is very often purchased for use in cemeteries and green spaces. And in Mönchengladbach, too, an ARI 458 Pickup with tarpaulin has recently been on the road in the municipal cemeteries to take care of the graves and green spaces on behalf of "Blumen Dietz". For owner Uwe Dietz, the ARI Motors electric transporter is ideal, as it is small and light enough for the sometimes narrow paths of the cemetery, but at the same time offers enough loading volume for all the equipment.


The ARI in Mönchengladbach is a very individually designed vehicle. The size L Pickup is fitted with a tarpaulin body to protect the load, which also divides the loading area into different compartments. This makes it easier to stow and remove flower boxes and tools. In addition, the vehicle was delivered with a permanently installed 300 liter water tank including an electric water pump to ensure the irrigation of the cemetery planting. The water pump is powered entirely by the vehicle battery and can also be operated directly from the driver's seat if required. The icing on the cake is a solar panel on the roof of the ARI 458 flatbed with tarpaulin, which provides up to 30 kilometers more range when the sun is shining and also supplies the water pump with power.


In the first few weeks, the ARI 458 Pickup with tarpaulin has already driven around 500 kilometers in the city's cemeteries. According to Uwe Dietz, the ARI 458 has generated a lot of positive reactions during this time, with many people asking him about the ARI's origins in a friendly manner. The vehicle may not have a nickname, but it has a "friendly character", says Dietz. And so the ARI 458 Pickup with tarpaulin body will also act as an advertising space for the company in future. Because a friendly face like that of the ARI is the best advertisement.
