What is the difference between a Type 1 2 and 3 ambulance?

What is a type 1 ambulance?

Type 1 tends to be installed on the chassis of heavy trucks, whether it is a large pickup (3500-5500) chassis or a semi-chassis. The cab looks like a small truck. Type 1 ambulances can be used in f-series Ford, Dodge or Chevrolet. The passage connecting the patient compartment and the driver's cabin of the Type 1 ambulance is very small, like a window.

What is a Type 3 ambulance?

If you want the advantages of Type-1, with extra space for movement, work, and storage, the Type 3 ambulance is housed on a heavy-duty vehicle chassis. Type 3 ambulance chassis includes e-series Ford or g-series Chevrolet. On Type 3 ambulances, the appearance of the passages between the driver’s cabin and the patient’s cabin may be different, but they look more like a door than a window. In this way, one of them can be isolated, and it is also more convenient to transmit things. This is the advantage of Type 3.

What is a type 2 ambulance?

If I am completely honest, the Type 2 ambulance is more suitable as a vehicle for emergency rescue of patients. They are usually commercial vehicles with large internal headroom, such as Ford's Transit, Mercedes-Benz Vito, Spint, etc. You can move from the back to the front relatively easily. But the space from side to side is not large, but on the other hand, most patients do not need a lot of space to take care of.
