ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) A new, four-wheel drive utility vehicle with a compression-ignition internal combustion piston engine (diesel) of a cylinder capacity of 720 cm 3 , with a net weight (including fluids) of approximately 630 kg, an unbraked towing capacity of 750 kg and with dimensions of approximately 300 × 160 cm. The vehicle has an open cabin with two seats (including the driver) fitted with a full roll-over protection frame, a cargo bed constructed of a strong steel frame with a sturdy flat-bed tipping body, with a manual tipper and of a capacity of 0,4 m 3 or, approximately, 400 kg. It has a high ground clearance (27 cm) and a wheel base of 198 cm. It is equipped with off-road earth moving tyres, wet-type disc brakes, a coupling device and a front hitch. The vehicle has a limited speed of 25 km/h, and a high brake capacity. The vehicle is designed for off-road use, particularly in very rough terrain. The vehicle is presented to be used for a range of functions, for example, pushing, hauling trailers, moving animals, transporting plants, boxes, water and equipment, carrying munitions and transporting feed for animals.  ( *1 ) See image. 8704 21 91 Classification is determined by general rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8704 , 8704 21 and 8704 21 91 . The vehicle is designed as a multipurpose vehicle that can be used for a range of functions in different environments. It has objective characteristics of motor vehicles for transport of goods of heading 8704 . (See also the Harmonised System Classification Opinions 8704.31/3 and 8704 90/1.) The vehicle is not a dumper designed for off-highway use. It is not sturdily built with a tipping or bottom opening body, designed for the transport of excavated or other materials (see also the Harmonised System Explanatory Notes to heading 8704 , sixth paragraph, point (1)). Classification under subheading 8704 10 is therefore excluded. The product is therefore to be classified under CN code 8704 21 91 as a new motor vehicle for the transport of goods.
