Actros Overall Winner of Fleet Test

Seven semitrailer tractors of the major brands in Europe were put into service three years ago by Fehrenkötter in order to compare their qualities in everyday haulage work over a lengthier period: DAF XF, Iveco Stralis, MAN TGA, Mercedes-Benz Actros II, Renault Premium, Scania R and Volvo FH. During this time the trucks hauled farm machinery, tractors, trailers and vans all across Europe.

In three years the Mercedes-Benz Actros covered exactly 400,984 kilometres; despite its big Megaspace cab it took third place in fuel consumption among the seven competitors with 33.5l/100 km.

 

1st place for the Mercedes-Benz Actros in Total Performance

2nd place in operating cost accounting

Not a day of downtime in three years and 400,984 kilometres

Reliability and service are as important as low cost
