Production Vehicles
Complete vehicle fleet for your Mexican production.
Production vehicles include the trucks, vans, trailers, and support vehicles that keep a film crew operational on location. Equipment trucks, wardrobe trailers, cast motorhomes, and catering vehicles form the mobile infrastructure that supports every department throughout a shooting schedule.
We source and coordinate production vehicle packages from local fleet providers, matching vehicle types and quantities to your production's scale. Our team handles permits, parking arrangements, and scheduling logistics so your vehicle fleet supports smooth daily operations at every location.

On Location
Toyota, Ford, Chevrolet and Mercedes Sprinter fleets across CDMX, Yucatán and Sonoran terrain
Here is how this works in practice. Standard Mexican production fleet runs Toyota Hilux + Land Cruiser 70-series for Sonoran, Chihuahua, and Baja California border-northern-state work, Ford F-150 + Transit cargo and crew vans, Chevrolet Silverado for camera-truck and grip-truck conversions, Nissan NP300 (Mexican-built at Nissan Aguascalientes plant) for cost-conscious crew transport, Mercedes Sprinter and Volkswagen Crafter for talent and gear shuttles. Plus Hyundai H1 and Mitsubishi L200 for low-budget productions.
On the ground, Star trailers (talent dressing-rooms), wardrobe trailers, hair-and-makeup trailers, production-office trailers, and honey-wagons (portable toilets) pull from CDMX-based providers serving Estudios Churubusco, Lemon Studios, Argos Comunicación, and Televisa San Ángel base-camp setups. Process trailers and insert cars for Sicario, Narcos: Mexico, and Quantum of Solace style driving sequences typically combine local Mexican grip-truck conversions with cross-border Russian Arm Filmworks and Ultimate Arm chase-vehicle stock from LA via Tijuana 12-minute commercial border crossing under ATA carnet processed through SAT/Aduanas. The USMCA framework eases crew and gear movement. But ATA carnet remains standard for high-value camera-car rigs.
Here is the short of it. Mexican terrain shapes vehicle specs more than urban-fleet inventory descriptions capture. CDMX altitude (2,240m) reduces naturally-aspirated engine output by ~20% — turbo-charged Ford Transit and Mercedes Sprinter handle the elevation better than older naturally-aspirated Nissan NP300 and Chevrolet Silverado. Sonoran and Chihuahua desert sets need 4WD Toyota Land Cruiser 70-series and Hilux with raised suspension and dust-rated air filtration for productions echoing the Sicario / Sicario 2 Sonora workflow and The Magnificent Seven Durango Western terrain.
On the ground, Yucatán and Quintana Roo Mayan Riviera coastal humidity (70-95% RH) accelerates corrosion on door hinges and undercarriage — we rotate fleet between coastal and inland deployments to extend service life. Helicopter operators Helicópteros Servicios Especiales, Sky Helicopters Mexico, Aerodynamics Helicopters, and Aeroservicios provide Astar B2/B3 and Bell 407 sites with Shotover F1 + Cineflex V14HD gyro-stabilised heads, cleared through DGAC / AFAC aerial-flight authorisation. Cargo airports MEX (Mexico City), CUN (Cancún), TIJ (Tijuana), MTY (Monterrey), and GDL (Guadalajara) handle Aeroméxico Cargo and Volaris Cargo same-day gear movement between cities. Working-week practice is Monday-Friday + Saturday optional, IMSS payroll, 16% IVA, ISR bracket-based, MXN ~17-18:1 USD.
