The WAS Innovation Centre
Innovative concepts for ambulances and patient transport ambulances
Always there for the emergency services: With our innovative concepts for ambulance vehicles and patient transport ambulances, we use technical progress to provide rescue services with ever safer, more efficient and more user-friendly rescue vehicles. We evaluate technical innovations in terms of their usefulness for rescue services and take them into account when developing new ambulance concepts. This is how new special-purpose vehicles are constantly being created that support emergency services and make rescue services more sustainable.
The trend towards lightweight box bodies is revolutionising patient transport. These modern vehicles not only offer lower procurement costs, but also the option of reusing the box body on a new chassis. With a gross weight of under 3.5 tonnes, they offer a spacious patient compartment and optimised storage space for equipment. The internal dimensions of 1960 mm width, 3200 mm length and 1900 mm height ensure manoeuvrability and efficiency, while medical equipment such as scoop stretchers and CombiCarriers can be conveniently stored in the external storage compartment.
The WAS 100-E combines a proven vehicle concept with a sustainable electric drive based on the Mercedes-Benz eVito and thus offers a modern platform for alternative drive technologies in the emergency services. With optimum space utilisation, a high focus on safety and an impressive payload of 610 kg, the vehicle meets all current standards for emergency ambulances and offers various individually adaptable cabinet modules.
The electrically powered WAS 500 E-ambulance sets new standards in the rescue service thanks to its climate neutrality, flexibility and outstanding driving characteristics. With a gross vehicle weight of 5.5 tonnes, it is ideally equipped for operations. An impressive 1,235 successful missions were completed during the test phase, demonstrating the potential of this e-ambulance.
The WAS 300 emergency ambulance Mercedes-Benz Sprinter panel van ALS/BLS 3.5 T has been specially developed for extreme operating conditions and offers the highest levels of safety, ergonomics and efficiency. Equipped with special chassis, reinforced air conditioning and heating systems, it is optimally equipped for a wide range of environmental conditions worldwide.
Ergonomic and back-friendly working has only recently become increasingly important in the emergency services. We have taken this welcome development as an opportunity to fundamentally revise our ambulance table and offer a further table variant.
