Paragan Equistar 3 WHY CHOOSE EQUISTAR 3

Equistar 3 is a compact horsebox designed for a prompt transport of two horses and three passengers. It is the lightest version of the Paragan horseboxes, which does not exceed 1210 kg of the payload capacity. Our priority is the passengers and, obviously, horses’ safety. Equistar 3 is also popular for its convenient operational costs, maneuverabilitz and the length not even reaching up to 6 meters which results with additional costs saving, i.e. the cheaper ferry transfers. A spacious storage room above the cabin, accessible from the horse area, can be closed with a net or a door. These can be found in our extensive range of comfort and safety vehicle configuration options.
