Travelling with your team? Meet the AKX Double Cabin

Equestrian life rarely happens alone. A training day, competition weekend or early morning on the road often involves more than a rider and two horses. There is a groom coming along. A partner or family member helping for the day. Or a team that needs to get from the stable to the showground together. And once more people travel with you, what you need from your horsetruck changes.

The AKX Renault Master Double Cabin is designed around exactly that reality. It combines seating for up to five people with transport for two horses and dedicated space for your tack and equipment, all within a practical 3.5T horsetruck.

More room for your team

The biggest difference is right where you notice it first: the cabin. With seating for up to five people, the AKX Double Cabin gives you room to bring more of your team with you. Instead of organising who drives separately or how everyone gets to the showground, rider, groom and support can travel together. It is a simple change that can make the logistics around busy equestrian days considerably more straightforward.

• Early morning departure? Everyone leaves together.
• Moving between the stable and showground? Your team is already with you.
• Heading away for a full competition weekend? The people you rely on can be part of the same journey.
• One vehicle. More room for the people behind the horses.

More seats, without giving up the horse space

One of the first questions when considering a Double Cabin is a logical one: Does the extra cabin space come at the expense of the horses? With the AKX Renault Master Double Cabin, you still have space for two horses. The current configuration combines its five-person Double Cabin with a horse area featuring an adjustable partition and stallion layout.

The horse area also includes an electrical air extractor, skylight and lateral windows, rubber flooring and fastening chains. LED lighting supports practical use around the horses, while the layout is designed to keep loading, unloading and daily handling straightforward. So the idea behind the Double Cabin is not to replace horse space with passenger space. It is to create a configuration that accommodates both.

And your tack still has its place

More people usually means more equipment, not less. That is why tack storage matters just as much as the extra seats. Behind the horse area, the Double Cabin includes a dedicated tackroom with storage for saddles and bridles. AKX describes the rear tackroom as a spacious area designed to keep equipment organised and easily accessible throughout busy competition days. You are not choosing between five seats or a practical tack area. The configuration brings the additional passenger capacity together with dedicated equipment storage.

A 3.5T format built around everyday use

Despite its additional seating capacity, the current AKX Renault Master Double Cabin remains a 3.5T configuration. That makes the concept particularly relevant for riders who want the practicality of a 2 Horse vehicle but frequently travel with more support.

Training days. Lessons. Vet appointments. A day at another stable. Or simply the many miles between one show and the next.The Double Cabin is designed around those journeys as much as around the big ones.

What do you actually get with the Double Cabin?

In practical terms, the AKX Renault Master brings together:

• Double Cabin with seating for up to 5 people
• Space for 2 horses
• 3.5T configuration
• 170 HP / 2.0L Renault Master
• Adjustable partition and stallion layout
• Dedicated tackroom with saddle and bridle storage
• Camera and parking radar
• Electrical air extractor
• Skylight and lateral windows
• Rubber flooring in the horse area
• Trailer hitch with 2,500 kg specified capacity

Rather than adding features for the sake of having more, the AKX philosophy is about functionality and focusing on what matters in everyday equestrian transport.

Single Cabin or Double Cabin?

Ultimately, the choice comes down to how you travel. If you usually travel alone or with a smaller team, the AKX Opel Movano Single Cabin offers seating for up to three people in a compact configuration. The Renault Master Double Cabin extends the seating capacity to five. The question is therefore not simply which truck is bigger or better. Ask yourself:

Who normally travels with me? Do we regularly need to organise additional transport for the groom, partner or team? Do I want everyone, the horses and our equipment together in one vehicle?

If the answer to those questions points towards more passenger space, the Double Cabin becomes a very logical configuration.
