It’s been featured in the Guinness Book of World Records as the ‘most fuel efficient truck’. From offering optimized returns to customers to packaging itself in an emotive and practical design,the third generation Mercedes-Benz Actros 4841K is out in the market. One of the largest selling truck model worldwide,the Actros comes in an eye-catching improvement starting with the three-millimeter-thick,pressure-tight guard plate for the radiator and engine. This stainless steel component reduces damage in the region of the radiator and engine,while accentuating the powerful styling of the new mining Actros. Also,thanks to the additional protective parts,operators can avoid expensive repairs and at the same time reduce downtimes of their trucks.

Ergonomically designed seats and cockpit with multifunction steering wheel,and the Telligent gearshift are just some of the features designed to ease the strain of work in the mining industry. In terms of safety,the Actros is equipped with Telligent braking system with ABS and ASR improving the handling and driving safety. Now,Actros drivers can enjoy multifunction steering wheel and the Driver Information System too! Meanwhile,the Telligent Engine System uniquely combines economy with ecology by enabling the optimum fuel injection to make the combustion cleaner,more efficient and capable of delivering increased power.
