This latest generation of Mercedes Benz Actros vehicles premiered available in Spring 2003. Regularly transport heavy lots over long distances, these models change from their predecessors primarily as to security, running expenses and driver comfort. The most significant developments can be found in the drive cab interior (built to satisfy even the most demanding truckers), the ever-more powerful engines and the technical improvements designed to the drive axle. Externally, the latest Actros trucks are characterised by the radiator grill, which may have the fins set more widely apart to improve ventilation and new lights with super-clear casings and variable-focus reflectors. All Actros machines are associated with the brand new V-type Series 500: the V8 engine installed regarding 1854 LS version provides from 503 to 578 HP.
