Actros F
Ready to deliver.
Functional and with a focus on the essentials: if you opt for the Actros F, you are opting for cost efficiency – and for a powerful truck without unnecessary accessories. And if you want something a little more, you can choose from optional additional features – and in so doing adapt your Actros F to your needs.
Highlights
Your entry into the world of Mercedes‑Benz Trucks.
Getting in is easy: just three steps and you’re in the cab, which is very spacious despite the 120 mm high engine tunnel. You also get functional equipment and proven technology – your Actros F has everything it needs to perform well.
- Very spacious
- Functional equipment
- Simply drive better
In the StreamSpace cab – optionally also BigSpace – you have plenty of space. The Actros F is available in 17 different models and therefore meets all your needs and requirements.
With the Classic Cockpit and the standard mirrors, in the Actros F, an efficient interior with proven quality awaits you. Want to see more? There are a wide range of optional features such as the climate-controlled suspension seat and the Multimedia Cockpit, interactive.
Integrated driving modes, wear-free brakes and anticipatory detection of the course of the road: Predictive Powertrain Control can reduce your fuel consumption by up to 5 percent1. On the motorway as well as on country roads.
Cost effectiveness
Economical to the core
Stingy with fuel consumption.
Less consumption pays off for you. And the Actros F certainly helps you save! Of course, in the end it depends on how you drive. But the Actros F will support you with a drivetrain that is geared to your application: from the economical Euro VI engine – for example the 3rd generation OM 471 – to the rear axle with a suitable ratio.
Smart drive programs
Even smarter on the road.
If you opt for the Actros F, you will receive smart drive programs as standard. In long-haul transport, the “economy” program increases efficiency and saves fuel. However, if you need the maximum output of your Actros F on uphill gradients, for example, you can use the “power” drive program.
Predictive Powertrain Control
Consuming less with foresight.
Whether uphill, downhill or on a straight road: with Predictive Powertrain Control, you can drive even more efficiently. This is made possible by the satellite-based system and precise 3D maps. The assistance system can recognise the route you are currently on and adapts the shift sequence to the upcoming driving situation. This means you’ll use up to 5 percent1 less fuel.
The OM 471
Saving while driving.
Good is now even better: Thanks to the interaction between the PowerShift Advanced transmission control and the 3rd generation OM 471 engine, your truck is dynamic when moving off and sensitive when manoeuvring. Internal engine improvements also ensure that you save fuel with your truck on your trips – and saving fuel means saving money.
Exterior
Uncompromising classic
Design and functionality combined: with long-lasting LED tail lights, two cab variants – suitable for long-distance haulage or heavy-duty distribution haulage – as well as roof spoilers and side deflectors that efficiently guide the air for lower consumption.
Comfort
Street-life balance.
Switch off after work so that you can start your next journey rested: The cabs of the Actros F combine what you need in a compact space. Whether you’re driving or taking a break.
One button for central functions: In addition to the light check, you can use the convenience key to open, close, unlock and lock the driver’s and co-driver's door, the side windows and the tilting/sliding roof.
Simply press the start/stop button and the engine starts or stops as long as you carry the key no more than two metres away from the start/stop button. Get in and drive off, even if the key is still in your pocket.
Moving off and securing the truck made easy: When you switch off the engine, the electronic parking brake of your Actros F is there for you. If you shift the transmission to position “D” or “R”, it releases automatically when you accelerate. If you depress the brake pedal more firmly at the traffic light, it activates the HOLD function.
Interior
Compact yet spacious:
While on the move, your truck is a logistics hub. And when the work is done, the Actros F offers you your personal space with numerous stowage compartments and drawers, of which you can have even more if you wish. Above all, the comfort bed offers you a large lying surface with a length of 2.20 metres for recharging your batteries after the journey.
Rest and relax on 2.20-metre-long 7‑zone cold foam mattresses: making your nights and breaks particularly relaxing – so you're ready to go on your next trip! And if you want to feel even more comfortable, you can choose the optional PremiumComfort multi-zone mattress.
Your Actros F comes as standard with all kinds of well thought-out stowage compartments and drawers – with up to 247 litres of stowage space above the windscreen alone. Depending on your needs, stowage space under the bed or a 26-litre refrigerator can also be included.
When the journey is over, it’s time to live. In your Actros F, the workplace and living space are clearly separated from each other, so that you can focus entirely on your leisure time. Among other things, the interior lighting concept with its pleasant illumination creates a homely atmosphere. So you can start your next journey feeling relaxed.
Do your thing.
The most important functions come as standard with the Actros F. And with a wide range of optional features, you can meet your exact needs. Whether it’s an infotainment system, an additional bed or a comfortable suspension seat: the Actros F offers you a wide range of options.
Do your thing.
Climatised suspension seat
For StreamSpace or BigSpace cabs for long-haul transport, you can customise your workplace in the Actros F with ergonomic settings, including seat heating and armrests. The active ventilation system in the seat cushion and backrest ensures a good seat climate even on long journeys.
Multimedia Cockpit, interactive
A better overview of everything that's going on at your workplace: The 12.3-inch instrument cluster and the infotainment system with 10.2-inch multi-touch display can be easily operated via the multifunction steering wheel with Touch Control buttons. The two MirrorCam displays on the A‑pillars complete the digital cockpit.
Automatic air conditioning and auxiliary air conditioning system
Smartly regulate the climate in your truck: The automatic climate control system automatically adjusts the temperature, airflow and air distribution to the ambient conditions. If you also opt for the auxiliary air conditioning system, you can air-condition the cab for up to eight hours without idling: quietly and economically.
Safety
Attentive helpers on board.
A variety of safety assistance systems are at your side on your trips. Innovative systems can support you on motorways and highways, for example with improved object detection as well as warning and braking reactions.
Safety on both sides as standard: The latest generation of Active Sideguard Assist provides even better support when changing lanes, overtaking and turning in complex situations.
Real-time support: Traffic Sign Assist 2 not only detects speed limits, but also overtaking restrictions and warning signs. It compares your current speed with the permissible vehicle speed. If you drive too fast, it warns you acoustically and visually. This means that Traffic Sign Assist 2 can protect you not only from fines, but also from accidents.
Actros F plus
The premium entry-level model.
The Actros F plus delivers functionality and modernity in an extra class. It is just as reliable as the Actros F, but equipped with many premium features in terms of driver’s workplace and safety: such as the MirrorCam for a better overall view and more comfortable manoeuvring, the standard LED light signature of the daytime running lights and turn signals as well as the Multimedia Cockpit, interactive.
