These vehicles are classified as a ballast truck and a tractor. Mercedes Aktros seat tractors are available in several modifications with different wheel formulas and two chassis options - weighing up to 35 tons (de jure) and up to 60 tons (de facto). Various body options with various attachments are installed on these chassis. In addition, they install various special equipment, dump bodies.
A distinctive feature of any Mercedes Actros is the presence of "Teligent" - electronic system technical control. This system in real time can process information from a large number of sensors installed on various units of the machine. Which monitor the state of real loads and engine wear, the operation of the transmission, as well as the braking system, and this is not the whole list. This improves the efficiency of all truck components. That allows you to increase the runs between services up to 120 thousand kilometers. And since 2008, they became the first who began to install serially on trucks Mercedes cars Actros automated box gears.
Equipment and specifications Mercedes Actros
In general, these tractors have a very good performance and indicators. Depending on the season, as well as wear and tear fuel system, fuel consumption is from 28 to 37 liters per 100 kilometers. IN various modifications volume fuel tank from 450 to 1200 liters. All of them are equipped with 12-speed, 16-speed non-synchronous, manual transmission with a tellijent 1 and 2 switching system. As well as a V-shaped turbodiesel in two variations - 6-cylinder 12 liters (320-440 hp) and 8-cylinder 16 liters (460-600 hp). With all this, these tractors develop a maximum speed of 162 km / h. Interestingly, by general opinion truckers of the CIS countries, these cars have a powerful engine, are very easy and pleasant to drive, but have the disadvantage of a not very strong suspension.
In more detail, as an example, we can take tractor Mercedes Actros 1843 2001 release. This vehicle has the following characteristics:

The lineup Mercedes-Benz Actros- well-known family truck tractors and heavy trucks with a total tonnage of 18 to 41 tons. Cars began to be produced in 1996 and so far have managed to undergo two major upgrades (2005/2008). A large concern today releases several modifications trucks with a wheel formula - 4x2, 6x2, 4x4, 6x4 and two chassis options - 4x2 and 6x2, which are equipped with various options body and specialized attachments.
Trucks Mercedes-Benz series Actros among all truck tractors manufactured by the concern are in the greatest demand due to the reliability of operation and high productivity. Distinctive feature trucks of this model range - the Telligent® electronic system that monitors the technical condition of the machine. In real time, the system, using numerous sensors, monitors all loads and determines critical wear, controls the operation of the engine, transmission, brake system and other units and mechanisms. This increases the efficiency and service life of the vehicle.
General technical data of the Actros range
In general, the technical characteristics of the series trucks Actros models mean good performance and a high level of availability. Depending on the season and degree of wear power unit, tractors consume an average of 27 to 37 liters of fuel per 100 km. In various modifications, the volume of the fuel tank varies from 450 to 1200 liters, which allows the machine to transport goods over long distances.
The characteristics of the model range are based on the following technical parameters:
- V-shaped turbocharged diesel engines in two variations - a 6-cylinder engine with a capacity of 320-440 hp with a displacement of 12 liters. and 8-cylinder units with a volume of 16 liters, delivering power from 440 to 600 hp;

Since 2008, Mercedes has been one of the first to produce serial tractors equipped with an automatic transmission. The 4×2 and 6×2 truck tractor is equipped with air suspension with two air springs, while flatbed trucks They are equipped with air suspension with four air springs.
Tractor models Actros 3341, 1844, 1846 LS – guaranteed quality
Fairly wide the lineup tractors Mercedes-Benz Actros allows you to pick up heavy truck ideal for specific operating conditions. Model Mercedes Actros 3341 attracts attention with high technology with wide choice specialized attachments installed optionally. Due to reinforced axles and springs, the car's carrying capacity reaches 24 tons. Among the main advantages are good cross-country ability and the ability to work in the most difficult conditions operation.
Notable Mercedes models Actros 1841 and Actros 1844 equipped with improved diesel engines with high power. In addition to modernized technical parameters, they provide complete comfort for the tractor driver. The Actros 1846 LS heavy-duty model is considered one of the economical and reliable machines in the series, providing not only comfort for the driver, but also demonstrating excellent performance.
German quality, assembly reliability and well-functioning mechanisms like a Swiss watch, a model range with about 530 variations, a weight category of cars from 18,000 kg. up to 250,000 kg. and the world's lowest fuel consumption. Of course it is mercedes benz Actros.
Launched for sale in 1996. Aktros series of heavy trucks was designed both for efficient transportation of goods over long distances and for a wide range of construction tasks in absolute off-road conditions. The series was well received by the public and soon became one of the most sought after in this market segment. Inspired by success, Mercedes in 2002. updated line. The third "coming" Mercedes Benz Aktros fell at the beginning of 2008, and the fourth happened just 3 years later: in July 2011. The last rebranding of the series was marked by serious improvements and re-equipment of all models in accordance with the requirements of European standards.
For four generations, basic technical mercedes specifications Actros have undergone some pretty major changes. Mercedes-Benz Actros is mainly equipped with two types of engines: OM 501 LA-541 and OM 502 LA-542.
Impressive technical characteristics distinguish Actros trucks from other vehicles
OM 501 is a 11.95-liter diesel six-cylinder engine, with V- figurative arrangement cylinders and power ranging from 310 hp. up to 476 hp at 1800 rpm. The maximum torque of the 501st engine is in the region of 1650-2300 Nm at 1080 rpm.
OM 502 - also a turbocharged diesel, but already a 15.93-liter and eight-cylinder. The power of these motors ranges from 510-598 hp. at a nominal speed of the crankshaft equal to 1800 rpm. Torque range from 2400 Nm to 2800 Nm at 1080 rpm.
The engine management system used on this vehicle is PLD (Pumpe Leitung DUESE), which includes one plug-in pump module for each cylinder that supplies fuel under pressure (up to 1600 bar) from injectors. The MR control unit monitors all engine operating conditions with the help of several sensors and changes the injection pressure in accordance with the current operating conditions.
In line with European regulations acceptable level exhaust toxicity, Mercedes equips engines with a special patented BLUE TEC 5 system based on selective catalytic reduction technology. In a compartment with mufflers of European standard EEV, this feature does trucks Mercedes not only meets Euro 5 and Euro 6 standards, but also significantly reduces it fuel tank. The fuel consumption of Mercedes Actros is the lowest in the world according to the Guinness Book of Records (19.44 per 100 kilometers at maximum load).
Starting from the second generation, the Mercedes Actros truck series is equipped with an electronic sequential gearbox, which has gained worldwide fame under the name "TELLIGENT". It is based on the principle used in some earlier tractors. Mercedes-Benz. The TELLIGENT system uses a computer that reads engine performance data, and also receives signals from the Load-Sensing automatic load detection system on the SSU.
After analyzing the received information, the system automatically selects optimal transmission. For example, if the driver needs to change to overdrive, the computer evaluates the load, the current mode of operation of the engine, and determines the best transmission to reduce engine speed. On the other hand, if downshifting is required, the computer assumes that a significant increase in speed is required to maneuver and selects the best gear for acceleration. Optional installation of an automatic version, which works in the image and likeness of the Tiptronic system in passenger cars Mercedes-Benz vehicles. The fourth generation of Aktros trucks, launched in 2011, offers a 12-speed gearbox exclusively.
The comfortable cabin of the Mercedes Actros deserves the highest praise
The cab of the Mercedes Actros was developed based on the needs of the driver who would have to be behind the wheel for a long time and even sleep in the cockpit. It provides a quiet, smooth and enjoyable ride. The air suspension of both the cab and the vehicle itself makes the ride really smooth, even on the roughest road. The cab with an increased roof height, the so-called "sleeping version" is equipped with two berths (the top one cannot be used while driving, so the seats must be folded).
The top bunk is slightly wider, but all controls (radio, windows, auxiliary heater, etc.) are only accessible from the bottom bunk. However, most of the controls that one would need while resting (auxiliary heater, sunroof, etc.) are duplicated above the driver's head, and the width of the top bunk allows a person to use them without much effort.
The driver's seat is fully adjustable, equipped with air suspension. Steering wheel also available for height and tilt adjustment, in addition allows the driver to control the functions of the on-board computer, as well as the built-in tuner. The cabin has excellent sound insulation and provides almost the same noise level as in a conventional passenger car mobile.
Actros cabs come in three types:
S - designed for daily operation and construction vehicles, such as Mercedes Aktros dump trucks. The construction version of the S-cab has a taller front bumper to prevent collisions with obstacles when driving off-road.
M - most often used for construction Vehicle(for example, Mercedes Actros 3341), has a low roof and is installed on those units where it is more important to increase the length of the body. There is a berth here, although its comfort is much lower than in the L - cabin.
L - cab with a low roof for Mercedes Actros tractors, provides maximum comfortable driving and rest for the driver.
LH "MegaSpace" - analogue previous version but with a high roof. This is installed, for example, on the car of the third Generations of Mercedes Actros 1844. Here the emphasis is on expanding the space for both driver and passenger.
Mercedes Actros set quality standards
To date, the line of cars includes 4 types of Mercedes Actros truck tractors with 4x4, 4x2, 6x4, 6x2 wheelbases and 2 types of truck chassis with 4/6x2 wheelbase, as well as all-wheel drive units with 4x4, 6x6, and 8x8 wheelbases.
Actros are purely business machines that are adapted for everyday work, as well as for a wide range of special tasks. The basic equipment provides free repairs for all Mercedes Aktros cars for one year, as well as an extended warranty for the main components.
Mercedes Actros is one of the most sought after trucks in the world. Two models are most popular in Russia: the Mercedes Benz Actros 1840 tractor and its later version, the Mercedes Actros 1841.
To date Mercedes price Actros 1998-2003 of release varies from 1,000,000 rubles. up to 1,640,000 rubles In comparison, the price of Mercedes Benz Actros 2009-2012 of release starts from 2,500,00 rubles, and for new models from 2013 - from 7,000,000 rubles.

In mid-October, a column of seven brand new Actros tractors latest generation set off on a journey of one and a half thousand kilometers, from Moscow to Anapa. In such an original way, Mercedes-Benz RUS decided to mark the start of sales of the third generation of the flagship of its truck line in Russia.

The latest "reincarnation" of Actros is already the third in a row after being assigned in 1996 by a heavy Mercedes-Benz trucks own name. Following this, each new generation achieved the high title of "Truck of the Year". The newcomer, having barely appeared on the market, was also no exception and received this title at the IAA-2008 exhibition in Hannover. Titles are titles, but what can actually please us with the new Actros?
Let's say right away: there was no revolution in the third generation, in comparison with the second. Mercedes-Benz engineers decided not to “reinvent the wheel”, but to improve the existing one and, by the way, they did the right thing. The design of the new cabin easily shows all the best that was in the previous version. The newcomer has not changed his “registration permit”, he will be made in the same place where all his predecessors, without exception, gathered - on Mercedes-Benz factory in Werth. But still, convenience is created by little things, let's pay attention to them.

The new Actros now breathes "full breasts", that is the impression that is created when you look at the updated grille. Now it does not look like a black spot in the center of the cabin, its partial coloring was offered only as additional option on the second generation. Yes, and its components have changed: now these are wider U-shaped slats (2 or 3
depending on the cabin version), painted in the color of the cabin, between which there are air ducts directed to the radiator. A sun visor is installed on top of the windshield. More precisely, now it is necessary to speak about it in the plural, since it consists of three parts - the central and two side ones.
The latter are regulated independently of each other, separately for the driver and passenger, which should be considered convenient. The design of the tractor bumper has changed slightly. Aerodynamic openings appeared in the underskirt, a la sports car. Block headlights in the bumper got a chrome trim that adds gloss to the car. Still, in front of us, although a cargo, but still a Mercedes! The changes also affected the side deflectors that direct the air flow to the doors. Their shape is now more concise against the general background of the cabin design. Changes from a number of the most practical touched the rear-view mirrors. Now they are united by a common convex body, designed to reduce aerodynamic drag. Along the way, they were provided with an overlay along the outer edge. Many drivers have repeatedly encountered the problem of minor damage to the body of the rear-view mirrors when maneuvering. As often happens in such cases, the mirror itself remains intact, but the body suffers. After that, not many people decide to buy a new mirror assembly. The mirror cap on the new Actros aims to solve this problem. Completes the same general impression from the cabin design of the new Actros, a three-pointed star in the center of the redesigned grille. Of course, it was before, but now, as an option, a backlight is installed on it, giving it an original halo. emblem of Mercedes-Benz. Throughout the run in the parking lot in dark time days, three-beam stars were always “lit” on the machines. They have repeatedly attracted the admiring glances of the surrounding onlookers with their bluish light. In our opinion, this non-standard move by designers is just the very personality-giving zest that every model should have.

IN motor rally participated main tractors with two types of cabin floor heights. The first one is low, when the entrance to the interior of the tractor is preceded by three steps, and a tunnel protrudes from the floor between the passenger and driver seats engine compartment. This performance is most popular in Russia. Car transporters, whose presence on Russian roads large enough, the vast majority use just this version of the cab, and even in addition with a low roof. As for the second cabin configuration - Megaspace, we will dwell on it in more detail. It is related to innovative technical equipment the chassis on which the aforementioned cabin was based, and, accordingly, with a new model that is more interesting when viewed in detail.
Name Megaspace, in principle, speaks for itself - "Megaspace". Everything is quite concise and clear, as is usually the case with pragmatic Germans. But you have to pay for this space with a “daily charge”: to climb into the cabin, you need to climb a ladder of four steps. In addition, the height of such a tractor increases to 3718 mm against 3448 mm for the low-floor version. But all this is forgotten after you find yourself inside the cabin. The cubic shape of the cab, combined with a flat floor, gives inner space the atmosphere of home comfort, carpeting in the center of the cabin is a perfect confirmation of this.

As for the life of a truck driver (we will talk about the conditions of his work later), everything here is at the highest level. The salon is full of drawers, shelves and glove compartments for the most various dimensions. Estimating the volume of all luggage compartments, we catch ourselves thinking that it is simply not possible for one person at a time to carry away the content that can be placed here. All this is complemented by a refrigerator, a towel holder, a shaving mirror - in general, everything that we are used to at home. With equipment bed all in in perfect order, now in standard equipment two orthopedic mattresses are included, for both beds.
For the third Actros install the V-shaped 6- and 8-cylinder engines that have already proven themselves on the previous generation. The power range is quite wide. For example, 6-cylinder engines with a volume of 12 liters develop power from 320 to 476 hp, 16-liter "eight" - from 510 to 598 hp.
Cars equipped with V-shaped “sixes” with a capacity of 408 and 435 hp were provided to participate in the run. Euro standard 3, as well as the "eight" with a return of 510 hp. at 1800 min-1 and a decent torque of 2400 Nm, corresponding environmental regulations Euro 5.
Euro 4 and 5 standards are met on Mercedes-Benz trucks through the use of SCR technology and AdBlue. According to representatives of Mercedes-Benz RUS, this moment when comparing Mercedes-Benz cars Euro5 standard with SCR technology and competitors' cars that ensure the implementation of this standard using EGR technology, the latter lose about 7% in fuel efficiency. The statement is both interesting and controversial. Since the AdBlue reagent “does not lie on the road”, was its cost taken into account in the calculations?

With the gearbox for Actros, everything is more or less clear. The base will offer a robotic automatic 12‑speed transmission Mercedes-Benz PowerShift 2. Thus, Actros has become Mercedes-Benz first truck, which will be standard equipped with an automatic.
On this, perhaps, we will finish with the theory and move on to practice, taking a seat behind the wheel of the new flagship of the Mercedes-Benz line. The comfort of the driver's workplace is at the same high level as the overall interior of the cab. In equipping the interior, new high-quality materials were used, and this can be seen with the naked eye. Sitting in the driver's seat with a high back is comfortable, and its adjustments are able to satisfy the most refined tastes, varying over the widest range. Steering column It is also adjustable - both in inclination and in height of departure. It is securely fixed with a pneumatic lock. The instrument panel wraps around the driver's seat in a semicircle so that all switches are at a distance outstretched hand. The panel goes around the passenger seat, leaving room for his legs.
The instrument cluster, if it did not have a large information board in the middle, could easily take its place in a passenger car. It is done in black and white. color scheme. Scales and pointers pretty graceful. Now their dials are framed with silver rings. Information table also made in black and white, it displays relevant information in Russian.

By turning the ignition key, we start the engine, to which it responds with an even, dull roar, but somewhere deep, under the cabin floor. Then, by rolling the PowerShift joystick, we give a command to the robotic gearbox to move forward.
The PowerShift 2 transmission algorithm is very close to ideal. The start of movement occurs smoothly and simultaneously without undue delay. The automatic transmission accurately selects the gear needed for movement, like an experienced truck driver. Switching occurs smoothly, as if you are dealing with a variator, and not with a complex mechanism. Downshifting is just as flawless. If you listen closely, you can hear how the automation turns off the gear to reset the gas pedal. This is followed by regassing, after which you can hear the connection lower rung. So work automatic transmission good, it allows the driver to pay more attention road conditions. PowerShift 2 greatly facilitates the work of the driver.
The air suspension of the tractor, working in tandem with the cab suspension, easily handles minor road irregularities. Effective brakes, coupled with the Telligent system, effectively stop the car, whether it is a “loner” or a road train loaded to the maximum permitted weight.
Summing up the acquaintance with the new Actros, let's say: the engineers from Stuttgart managed to do a great job of improving their offspring. The newcomer overlaps its predecessor in all respects and becomes an excellent successor. Remains only price issue. The "cheapest" version of the Mercedes Benz Actros 1841 LS Euro 3 truck presented in the rally in basic version slightly falls short of the mark of 100 thousand euros, taking its start from 96,900 euros. On the other hand, maybe it's not so much money for reliable car, which will serve more than one year faithfully.

The first generation of dump trucks link blocked published over the course of seven years. During this time, the car has been subjected to all sorts of changes, alterations and improvements many times. The main task was to create a completely new model that would be fundamentally different from its predecessor Mercedes-Benz SK. As a result, it was decided to remake a large number of components. From the predecessor, the newcomer got only the rear axle.
The second generation was released in 2003 and was produced for five years. Compared to its predecessor, the car has undergone a deeper modernization. The creators completely changed the interior, equipping it with better materials and installing modern equipment. External changes touched on the design of the front optics, which for the first time became fully bi-xenon. At the same time, Mercedes Actros began to install new more powerful motors, which met Euro-3 standards.
In 2004, trucks were re-equipped with more advanced engines, which were completely new development German engineers. These powertrains already met the maximum emission standard Euro 5 and Euro 6.
Since 2012, the production of the next generation of Mercedes Aktros trucks has begun. This time, the creators decided to limit themselves to small changes. The car received additional equipment, which included the Proximity Control Assist system, which was supplemented by the start-stop option. Painstaking work has also been carried out to increase safety, reliability and comfort levels.
A distinctive feature of Mercedes-Benz Actros trucks is the Teligent electronic technical control system. It is capable of real-time processing of information coming from a huge number of sensors installed on different units of the car.
It monitors the actual load on the engine, assesses the degree of wear, regulates the operation of the transmission and brake system. Thus, it significantly improves the efficiency of the truck components, which contributes to an increase in the interval interservice run up to 120,000 km.
Exterior
Outwardly, the Mercedes Actros car looks majestic, elegant and presentable, in general, as it should be for a real "German". New model received a completely different grille with larger transverse slots.
The chrome-plated company logo has migrated to the steel front panel. The air intakes, which are located on the sides of the radiator grille, have undergone significant refinement. Their shape has become slightly beveled. The design of the front bumper has become new. It is now emblazoned aerodynamic kit with three holes.
Also from the novelties, a sun visor was added, which is located above the windshield. It is decorated with a wide chrome insert, which gives the car even more elegance. have been carefully crafted side mirrors. They radically changed their shape and became noticeably larger. In order to improve aerodynamic performance car, the shape of the mirrors was changed.
The glazing area makes a big impression. Windshield just huge. The side windows also provide excellent visibility. Wide doorways, comfortable thresholds with anti-slip coating contribute to comfortable fit to the salon.
Interior
There is more than enough interior space in a Mercedes Actros car. When you open the doors on their backside, the backlight immediately lights up. The quality of finishing materials is at the highest level. The plastic is soft and pleasant to the touch. No gaps, inconsistencies, squeaks or rattles. In a word, the highest German quality.
The driver's seat is equipped big amount adjustments. It itself has an anatomical back with adjustable lumbar support. On the side are located from the key, thanks to which you can control the air bags. There is also a heating key. Above the windshield is a large number of shelves, holders and compartments. There is no motor tunnel, but under the bed there is a comfortable and roomy two-story chest of drawers.
Of particular admiration is the adjustment of the angle of inclination of the sleeping shelf, which is carried out with the help of special inertial belts. They also serve as fall protection.
Cabin Mercedes Actros can be safely called the most spacious. It has an absolutely flat floor, and its internal height is almost two meters. At the height of ergonomics working area. The front panel is located in a semicircle and deployed to the driver. A big plus is that the Mercedes Actros cab is mounted on air suspension, thanks to which even on sharp turns it doesn't wobble from side to side.
The steering wheel is multifunctional, has a comfortable grip and can be adjusted in two planes. Nearby is a gear lever, an on-board computer, the screen of which has been enlarged, and a mass of buttons and control keys. The instrument panel has changed noticeably. It is decorated with completely new dials in a stylish chrome trim.
Specifications
With regard to technical characteristics of Mercedes-Benz Actros, then they are just on top of the car. Under the hood is a V-shaped turbodiesel for 6 or 8 cylinders with a 12 or 16-liter volume. Its power ranges from 320-440 hp, and for the second option this figure is 460-600 hp.
The transmission is not synchronous. It is offered in two versions: 12 and 16 steps. It should be noted that the checkpoint is officially called an automated mechanical one. However, in fact, it was based on the full "automatic" Power Shift. For the convenience of managing it and shifting gears, the shift lever is placed on a folding armrest.
Generally power equipment pleases. Most owners of the new Mercedes Aktros dump truck note the well-coordinated work of the power unit. The gearbox does not cause any trouble, gear shifting is smooth, without delay and thought. The Mercedes Actros engine is almost silent. Even on high revs it works quietly. Here it is worth paying tribute to the excellent soundproofing of the bottom, engine compartment and cab of the Mercedes Actros.
Thanks to the high power and modern design engine, Mercedes Actros boasts decent dynamic performance. The maximum speed that the car can develop is 162 km / h. The impression is made by the carrying capacity of the car, which can be from 9 to 14 tons.
Due to improved aerodynamic qualities, as well as high technology, which were used to create power equipment, managed to reduce the fuel consumption of Mercedes Actros. In mixed mode, it is approximately 23 to 37 liters, of course, depending on the load capacity, seasonality and type of road surface.
At a fairly high level, the Mercedes-Benz Actros tractor has completed brake system. Even without a load, the car brakes confidently, "without nodding." The deceleration is gradual and smooth. Here we must pay tribute to the comfortable, soft and light work brake pedals. It is a pleasure to manage it, since the control itself is presented in the form of a steering column paddle.
Today, the model range includes four types of Mercedes Actros truck tractors with different wheel formulas: 4x2, 4x4, 6x2, 6x4. The manufacturer also offers two types of chassis. Cars are perfectly adapted for everyday work and a large number of different tasks.
The equipment of the Mercedes Aktros car was made at a high level, which included the most modern security systems EBS, ESR, ABA and ART, dual zone climate control, on-board computer, a lot of adjustments of the driver's seat, steering column.
The price of Mercedes-Benz Actros for the basic configuration will be approximately 5,500,000 rubles. Naturally, it will depend on the year of manufacture of the car and its technical condition. For example, Mercedes-Benz Actros trucks manufactured in 1998-2003 will approximately cost from 1,000,000 to 1,800,000 rubles. The price of cars in 2009-2013 starts at 2,500,000 rubles. Well, absolutely new truck Mercedes-Benz Actros can be bought for at least 6,500,000 rubles.
