Snadná karosovatelnost díky novým rozvorům odstupňovaných po 200 mm, připraveným průduchům do kabiny, novým předpřípravám pro upevnění karoserie - například předvrtaným nebo specifickým převisům.
For some reason this word only seems to appear in association with Renault trucks, so it is clearly an in-house term.

body fitting/mounting
I'd say they simply mean that it's easy to add a body to the chassis, but just guessing too.
Note from asker:
| I wish I could split the points - I went with Pavel's suggestion as it fitted the context and it was as I suspected - one of these nasty made-up words only used by certain companies! |

Yep - Czech business people like to use strange words that they think sound foreign and professional. Thanks!
