Actros. Chassis

All chassis components are finely attuned and collaborate safely and reliably. With plus points such as the 2-bellows air suspension or the integral rear (semitrailer tractors only), the Actros is perfectly equipped for the challenge.
Frame
The Actros frame is weight-optimised, robust, ideal for mounting bodies and packed with innovative ideas. And if your profitability depends more on load space than on payload, the Actros Lowliner could be just what you’re looking for.

Integral rear
On air-sprung semitrailer tractors, this frame concept offers the crucial advantage of an almost completely free area for attaching additional components on the left-hand side behind the cab.

Suspension
Steel, steel/air or air. With these three variants, the Actros meets all requirements of a cutting-edge suspension system: excellent roll resistance and ride stability, precision roadholding and maximum traction.

2- and 4-bellows air suspension
On two- and three-axle semitrailer tractors, this suspension concept significantly improves handling and body roll, brings weight savings and allows the height of the frame to be reduced

Stabiliser link
The stabiliser link on the Actros has two important functions: axle location and stabilising body roll. It also helps reduce weight.

Steering
The precise response of the Actros’s power steering ensures precision roadholding. And when it comes to steering response you’ll be pushed to tell the difference between an empty and fully laden truck.

Brakes
If there’s one word that sums up the Telligent® brake system, it’s ‘exemplary’, as demonstrated by the particularly short stopping distances. Active safety is further enhanced by the new assistance system Active Brake Assist..
