Historical and Technical Description of the Models

The Bedford QL was a British truck series created for the army during World War II. Between 1941 and 1945, over 52,000 units of these robust, versatile trucks were produced. The QLT model was mainly used as an infantry transporter, while the QLD variant served as a general-purpose and cargo vehicle.

Both versions were powered by a 3.5-liter petrol engine with 72 hp, allowing a maximum speed of 61 km/h. Innovative solutions such as four-wheel drive, a two-speed reduction gearbox, and high ground clearance ensured excellent mobility in challenging wartime terrain. The Bedford QL trucks were used in all major campaigns on the Western Front, in Africa, and in the Far East.
