The vehicle is equipped with a powerful and at the same time economical PACCAR MX-13 engine, designed taking into account modern environmental standards and increased energy efficiency requirements. All components of the truck are designed to achieve maximum performance with minimal fuel consumption and CO2 emissions. In particular, the DAF XG 480 is equipped with digital mirrors, a full package of aerodynamic solutions, low-rolling resistance tires, as well as the most advanced active safety system, including a forward collision warning system, which is now standard.
Assembled in Eindhoven, this vehicle belongs to the new-generation DAF truck line, which also includes the XD, XF, XG and XG+ models. It is this series, as the manufacturer's announcement says, that has become a breakthrough in the field of long-distance and large-sized transport, offering a new level of efficiency, comfort and safety for drivers. Its creation was made possible thanks to a combination of innovative engineering, DAF's experience in the production of truck equipment and the systematic implementation of digital technologies.
This event is undoubtedly important for the entire commercial transport industry. It demonstrates that traditional manufacturers, who have been setting the tone for the freight market for decades, are not just maintaining their positions, but are confidently transforming in accordance with modern challenges and expectations.
