Mercedes-Benz Actros receives 'Green Truck 2013' award

The Mercedes-Benz Actros 1851 GigaSpace is the most eco-friendly commercial vehicle of 2013. The Euro-VI compliant truck made a direct impact in what was just its first year on the road due to its low fuel consumption, as proven last year in these independent
vehicle tests.

"The award of the title of 'Green Truck 2013' to the Mercedes-Benz Actros 1851 GigaSpace provides conclusive, independent confirmation of the results of the development work we have undertaken with the objective of creating a new, environmentally compatible truck that would comply with the Euro-VI emissions standard. This is further reinforced by the news that two other variants of the Actros are also to be found in the top 10 of this environmental ranking," said Dr. Jorg Zurn, Head of Truck Product Engineering Heavy/Medium-Duty Platform CoE.
