Method and arrangement for providing a modular tractor assembly including a driver compartment having a rearward connecting edge configured to slidably receive a complementary forward connecting edge of one of a day compartment module, a sleeper compartment module, or an inter-modular fairing connector assembly. A portion of the rearward connecting edge of the driver compartment has a flange portion disposed at an acute angle relative to a long axis of the tractor for complementarity receiving a forward connecting edge of one of the day compartment module, the sleeper compartment module and the inter-modular fairing connector assembly. The interface between the driver compartment and the day compartment module, a sleeper compartment module, or an inter-modular fairing connector assembly is substantially hidden by the doors of the vehicle to provide an aesthetically pleasing appearance.

Une partie du bord d~accouplement situé à l~arrière de la cabine du conducteur comprend une partie en bride disposée selon un angle aigu par rapport à un axe longitudinal du tracteur pour recevoir de manière complémentaire un bord d~accouplement situé à l~avant du module à compartiment de jour, du module à compartiment couchette ou de l~ensemble d~accouplement à carénage intermodulaire. La jonction entre la cabine du conducteur et le module à compartiment de jour, un module à compartiment couchette ou un ensemble d~accouplement à carénage intermodulaire est pour l~essentiel masquée par les portes du véhicule afin de produire un aspect esthétique élégant.
