You can expect more from the Atego.
Ticks a lot of boxes.
Ride comfort.
The Atego imparts a very good, self-assured feeling behind the wheel. This stems from Stability Control Assist, the cab mountings, the steering, the rear axle guide and the suspension, all of which work together in exemplary fashion.
Precision steering.
The Atego’s sensitive steering provides for simple, and exact handling during maneuvering; while at high speeds it ensures reliable straight-line and high directional stability along with a correspondingly reduced need for corrective steering.
Advantages at a glance.
- Ergonomically designed workplace with clearly legible instrument cluster and multifunction steering wheel
- Comprehensive storage concept
- Comfortable beds in ClassicSpace and BigSpace L-Cab
- Optimised rear axle guide and direct, responsive steering
- Application specific suspension variants for high ride comfort and gentle transportation of loads
- Excellent body connections and integration
Suspension variants.
The Atego is equipped with weight-optimised single- or multi-leaf parabolic springs. For enhanced ride comfort, it is also available with rear-air suspension. Ategos rated at 12 t or over are also optionally available with full pneumatic suspension.
Cab suspension system, reinforced at rear.
The optionally available cab suspension system with reinforced rear coil springs enhances suspension comfort for steel-sprung cabs when the cab is fitted out with a seat/bunk combination.
Axles.
Rear axle guide.
For advanced handling, all models are fitted with a rear-axle guide that reduces roll understeer.
Stabiliser, rear axle.
The robust stabiliser reduces vehicle roll and thus offers greater safety and comfort. It is situated under the frame at the rear axle.
Air-suspended front axle.
An air-sprung front axle (which is available for the Atego rated at 12 t and over) enhances ride comfort, as the vehicle is levelled automatically when carrying an uneven load. It is also adjustable to assist loading/unloading.
Good body-mounting capability.
The optimised layout of all components on the frame, a variety of PTOs and numerous factory-fitted pre-installations help streamline the bodybuilding process. Additionally, the body-mounting ability is improved by the parameterisable special module which simplifies connection options, integration and operation of the body substantially.
