Getting you there safely - with the support of innovative assistance systems.
Safety is at the root of our DNA.
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 assist to relieve the driver’s workload. This is why we have been focusing for over 45 years now on developing innovative assistance systems.
Active Brake Assist.
Fitted as a statutory requirement and operating within the system limits, Active Brake Assist can detect obstacles driving ahead of the vehicle, warn the driver of identified dangers and, if necessary, carry out a full brake application to mitigate the severity of a possible accident or its consequences.
Advantages at a glance.
- Electronic brake system with ABS and ASR, Active Brake Assist and hill holder
- Stability Control Assist and daytime running lamps for a higher standard of safety
- High Performance Engine Brake offering up to 280 kW of braking power
- Standard rain and light sensor
Further assistance systems.
High performance engine brake.
The three-stage, wear-free auxiliary brake is optionally available for even greater safety, offering up to 280 kW of braking power depending on the installed engine variant.
Lane Keeping Assist.
Lane Keeping Assist continuously monitors the distance between the sides of the vehicle and the lane markings and can warn the driver when the vehicle is unintentionally drifting out of its lane.
Stability Control Assist.
Stability Control Assist identifies situations such as skidding or swerving and aims to counteract them with braking intervention, as far as is physically possible. This can help prevent dangerous driving situations, thus enhancing safety.
LED technology.
The optionally available LED daytime running lamps help to improve recognition of the vehicle during the daytime for enhanced safety. LED clearance lamps and LED tail lamps are also optionally available.
