In conclusion of the 25th anniversary celebration of the Mercedes-Benz Actros in South Africa and to recognise the significant role loyal customers played in the success of the product locally, Mercedes-Benz Trucks launched a limited number of 25th Limited Edition Mercedes-Benz Actros trucks to the market.
The trucks are now available at Mercedes-Benz Truck dealerships nationally, while stock lasts. These special units are offered across three model variants namely, the Mercedes-Benz Actros 2652LS/33 RE, Mercedes-Benz Actros 2654LS/33 RE and the Mercedes-Benz Actros 2663LS/33 Euro 5.
What sets the 25th Limited Edition trucks apart from the normal model variants is the inclusion of traditional flagship equipment, previously exclusive to the flagship model the Mercedes-Benz Actros 2663LS/33, including aesthetics, diver comfort and safety features.
Driver comfort
To improve the driver's experience, the seating comfort was taken to new heights by replacing the standard Fold-Up, Co Fold-Up Passenger's Seat with a Comfort Passenger's Suspension Seat, featuring ergonomically favourable sitting posture armrests. In addition the 12.7 cm (Thin Film Transistor) TFT display instrument cluster was replaced with the stunning 12.3-inch Interactive Multimedia Cockpit. This multi-touch display brings driving and vehicle information to the driver's fingertips in a clear, graphic format, enabling them to stay connected and effortlessly in control.
Safety
Safety is paramount to Mercedes-Benz Trucks, and to ensure greater passenger safety, the 25th Limited Edition trucks are equipped with a seat occupancy detection sensor on the co-driver's side. For long-haul journeys, such as the route between Cape Town and Johannesburg, where an ideal sleeping climate is essential, the units are equipped with the Premium Comfort Mattress.
