Comfort reinvented.
Work better, drive better, live better –
the new Actros shows how it’s done.
Comfort. The new Actros lends concepts such as freedom of movement and
atmosphere a whole new meaning without losing sight of drivers’ everyday work. To
promote drivers’ productivity and counteract fatigue, we have redefined comfort
once again. From the new workplace designed for intuitive use with Multimedia
Cockpit and MirrorCam through cutting-edge connectivity and networking to the
broad range of driving and assistance systems, such as Active Drive Assist1), which
is optionally available for certain Actros models – everything serves to offer the
driver an outstanding environment for work and relaxation that makes breaks equally
as comfortable as the time spent at the wheel. We call this a new dimension
of comfort.

Euro VI exhaust emissions technology.
 Thanks to the cooled exhaust-gas recirculation system, less nitrogen oxide and fewer particulates are
 produced during combustion.
 Particulate emissions are almost entirely prevented by the closed diesel particulate filter. An optimised
 volume control unit injects AdBlue® into the exhaust gas flow without air.
