The new Actros L with ProCabin
Next level efficiency.
Design that pays off: The Actros L with ProCabin combines fuel-saving aerodynamics, comfort and safety – for even more efficiency on the road.
Highlights
Working and living under one roof.
Because every litre of fuel counts on long journeys: With its innovative cab design, the Actros L ensures even better aerodynamics. It is only sparing in terms of consumption – not in terms of safety and comfort. Numerous assistance systems give you that good feeling of being on the road safely. And because relaxed driving also includes relaxing breaks, the interior with its many comfort functions ensures rest and relaxation.
- Aerodynamics with style
- Comfort with significance
- Safety as a system
Simply efficient: the striking aerodynamic design of the ProCabin cab. It reduces the consumption of the Actros L by up to 3% compared to its predecessor1. Good looks that pay off – every kilometre of the way.
Simple to use: the Multimedia Cockpit Interactive 2 with voice control and digital features. 2 Simply relaxing: assisted driving at a high level with comfortable cab equipment.
Simply safer on the road: new and improved assistance systems such as Active Brake Assist 6, Active Sideguard Assist 2 and Active Drive Assist 3. They can detect people, vehicles and objects and help you to react quickly and appropriately.
Cost effectiveness
Efficient at first glance.
The 80 mm longer front end enables a completely new, even more aerodynamic design. Every detail of the ProCabin has been designed to divert the front air flow with as little drag as possible. The result: an efficiency increase of up to 3%1 compared to its predecessor. In combination with the economical 3rd generation OM 471 engine, this is the right choice for greater efficiency on long journeys. In this process, the engine generates plenty of output. Thanks to Top Torque, a further 200 Nm is available at the touch of a button – helpful on hills and when accelerating, e.g. when approaching the motorway.
Exterior
Good lighting. Better view.
The most important sensors at the wheel are your eyes. That’s why the Actros L makes no compromises when it comes to lighting. All lighting functions feature LED technology. Matrix LED headlamps are available as an option for even better lighting performance. This gives you a clear view from behind the wheel – and everyone else an impressive sight.
Comfort
Everything at a glance: Multimedia Cockpit Interactive 22
The secondary display in the Multimedia Cockpit Interactive 2 ensures an even better overview. You can use the touchscreen or switch panel to quickly and intuitively manage climate control, navigation, telephony, infotainment and more. You can also keep your eyes on the road and relay settings and commands via voice control.
Full power. Intelligently put on the road.
Comfort meets efficiency: Predictive Powertrain Control is continuously supplied with information about the route by the navigation system. At the touch of a button on the steering wheel, the system knows where you want to go. It can release the throttle, accelerate and select the optimum gear in conjunction with PowerShift Advanced.
Almost like in a motorhome: SoloStar Concept.
It’s best to drive relaxed. The optionally available SoloStar cab concept impresses with its genuine living space character: with a seating corner providing ample legroom, a table with a cutlery compartment, alternative seat covers and much more. Because your truck becomes your second home, especially on long journeys.
If you work hard, you should sleep softly.
A good bed is the best sleeping aid. And these facts are sure to get you a good night’s sleep: the bed in the Actros L is 750 mm wide, up to 2,200 mm long and has a fully fledged slatted frame – with a one-piece, 110 mm thick, 7-zone cold foam mattress as standard. The 45 mm thick mattress topper is added on top. With this level of comfort in the Actros L, it’s quite right to say “good night”.
Even more comfort on request.
With the right equipment, your cab feels like your second home. The optional 150 mm thick ExtraPremiumComfort mattress including topper, a second refrigerator, ambient lighting or a 230 V socket ensure even more comfort. And it pays off. After all, those who live and work in the truck day and night like you have to recover well during breaks.
Safety
Uncompromising safety: the assistance systems.
Safety is on board. The Actros L doesn't leave you alone at the wheel. Numerous safety assistance systems are there to help you. After all, you’re on the road in a truck from Mercedes‑Benz Trucks – it goes without saying that you feel safe behind the wheel.
Anticipatory driving style: the latest version of Active Brake Assist can now detect obstacles and critical situations even better and then react with appropriate measures – from clear warning signals to automatic emergency braking.
Safety on both sides as standard: with the latest generation of Active Sideguard Assist, the Actros L provides even better support when changing lanes, overtaking and turning in complex situations.
Keeping an eye on everything: the Actros L's Front Guard Assist monitors the area in front of the vehicle and supports the driver with warning signals in the event of possible hazards – for starting off, manoeuvring and turning more safely.
