Mercedes-Benz Axor

The Mercedes-Benz Axor is a truck manufactured by Mercedes-Benz designed to fill the gap between the premium Actros tractors and the mostly rigid Atego trucks and was targeted at fleet customers. The model was succeeded by the Mercedes-Benz Antos in 2012 in Germany, but is still produced in Brazil.

The truck has a relatively simple manual gear-shift, or alternatively, the Electronic Power Shift(EPS), is available, as well as a fully automatic box. The truck is powered by a 12-litre straight 6 engine.

2005 facelift

Originally the Axor was only available as a tractor but with the 2005 facelift, former Atego models over 18t were made part of the Axor Range.
