Buy or hire the CarGO Connect if...

  • you want one that is rated 2,750kg heavier gross
  • you want one that is 80cm (2.5ft) wider inside

A configurable enclosed cargo trailer for tradespeople, exhibition and event companies and small hauliers who need a lockable, weatherproof load area rather than an open bed. The low bed height is what makes loading practical without a ramp gradient that fights you.

Buy or hire the Venise if...

  • you want one that is 561kg lighter empty

A close match for the Cadix in size and weight, giving buyers another styling option in Lider's camping trailer line-up. Same 205cm length as the Cadix and 10cm narrower, so the choice between them is about what fits your garage rather than what it will carry.
