AROCS Truck 1.0
Arocs is the name for a truck series from the Mercedes-Benz brand from Daimler Truck AG. The Arocs series includes all trucks and tractor units for on- and off-road operations in the construction sector.
It was presented to the press in January 2013 as the successor to the construction site vehicles from the Mercedes-Benz Axor and Mercedes-Benz Actros series; the public premiere was at the bauma 2013 in Munich.
Like the Actros for long-distance transport and the Antos for distribution transport, the Arocs series was developed from the outset for its intended area of application, instead of deriving variants for different purposes from one series. The front design is based on the Antos, but with a radiator grille design that is also used on Mercedes-Benz SUVs.
Mercedes has redeveloped all engines for the Euro VI standard since 2015. The new in-line engines cover a power range from 240 kW (326 hp) to 460 kW (625 hp).
