Greater safety
Arrive 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 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.

Further Assistance systems.
Trailer Stability Assist2.
This system enhances driving safety by performing preventive braking of the vehicle and trailer in exceptional driving situations, thereby stabilising the truck and trailer combination.
High Performance Engine Brake.
The three-stage, wear-free auxiliary brake is optionally available for even greater safety, offering up to 300 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 warns 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 counteracts them as far as physically possible. This can 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.
