--- title: Vehicle Type Parameter Defaults permalink: /Vehicle_Type_Parameter_Defaults/ --- This page describes the vehicle parameter defaults depending on the vehicle class. If no values are given the values for passenger are used. It uses as default always the values in the first line for each vehicle class. The other values are just as an information (to be used with own vehicle types).
