Ambulances can be classified according to different models:
1. Van-type ambulances, such as the Ford Transit series, are modified by ordinary commercial vehicles, so the height of the body is basically the same as that of unmodified ones.
2. Pickup truck type ambulance, this type of ambulance drags a medical cabin like a box behind, the height of the medical cabin will be higher than the ambulance chassis itself, such as Ford F and E series.
3. The ambulance of the bus series. This type of ambulance is not used as an emergency medical vehicle, but is used for the rescue and treatment of 2 or more patients, or is manufactured as a model for physical examination. So this model is also the height of the bus itself.
4. 4WD ambulance model, this is mainly for military use, or in areas with poor road conditions, four-wheel drive ambulance. This can be an integral model, or it can be modified into a medical cabin at the back.
