Redefining efficiency.
Economical to the core.
The new Actros – for more efficiency. In addition to its reliable and durable design, efficiency is the second core characteristic of the new Actros, based first and foremost on its particularly low fuel consumption. Low wear and a higher resale value are additional merits contributing to its high overall efficiency.
To this end, numerous innovative technical measures were implemented in the course of developing the Actros. These result in engines with high performance and lower fuel consumption, a powertrain which enables a particularly economical driving style, and an aerodynamic design honed down to the finest details in the interests of fuel efficiency.
All in all, with fuel savings of up to 4% compared to its predecessor, the Actros offers an ideal basis for more profitable operations than ever.
The further advanced Mercedes PowerShift 3 automated gearshift combines an economical driving style with smooth gear changing and a high level of driving comfort. In short, the new Actros offers you a vehicle which is tailored perfectly to the needs of practically any application. Climb aboard!
Long distance
The Actros – for more efficiency.
Along with services which increase vehicle availability even further. From day one. And throughout the entire period of use.
Safety is at the root of our DNA.
Arrive safely – with the support of innovative assistance systems to improve driving safety which actively relieve the strain on the driver and treat the vehicle and the load with sufficient care, thereby contributing to higher efficiency. On every journey.
Trucks that are very safe are not just an important development for all road users. They are also more efficient, because they are less often put out of action by accidents and they relieve the driver’s workload. This is why we have been focusing for over 45 years now on developing innovative assistance systems.
