Advantages at a glance.
- Short frame overhangs: Large ramp, approach and departure angles. Effect: Effortless tackling of obstacles, hilltops, hillsides or slopes
- Fording capability: On top for a water depth of up 1.20 m – thanks to torque tube technology, air intake pipe at cab roof level and water-proofed major assemblies
- Single tyres: Large tyre contact areas ensure high traction with low rolling resistance. And: You get the right tyres for every type of terrain
- TireControl tyre pressure control system: Reducing pressure at the push of a button – comfortably from the driver's seat during the journey. This means that you sink less, e.g. into soft ground. It also improves traction and propulsion
