Ideal cross-over: XD and XF Extra Robust Entirely new are the ‘XD Extra Robust’ and ‘XF Extra Robust’. The series combines the robust cabs of the XDC and XFC with an on-road chassis. This is the perfect solution for operators in the construction and municipal segments who value the lowest vulnerability but do not need full off-road capabilities. The robust front execution with its prominent high-mounted bumper is always combined with a neatly integrated front under-run protection beam and is available on all XD and XF rigid and tractor configurations.

Single Drive

The New Generation DAF trucks programme has been extended to include a full series of 4 axle variants with single drive for on-road applications. These chassis versions, with steered pusher axle and/or (non-)steered trailing axles, are ideal for applications such as heavy container transport, sewer cleaning and heavy waste collection.

Highly efficient drivelines

The outstanding fuel efficiency performance – resulting in the lowest emissions – is the result of amongst others a highly aerodynamic design and application of the latest PACCAR MX-11 and MX-13 drivelines with TraXon gearbox. This automated transmission features, upon request, dedicated off-road software and ‘ASR-off’ as well as ‘Rock-Free’ functionalities for moving off in slippery conditions and to facilitate fast rocking to help extricate the vehicle in extremely tough circumstances.

The Right Pto For Every Application

Obviously, DAF offers a wide range of power take-offs (PTOs) to perfectly meet the wide variety of customer requirements in the construction and vocational segment. The program includes engine PTO’s positioned at 1 o’clock for heavy applications and a version at 11 o’clock for lighter applications, and indirect PTO options that can be mounted at the front of the engine for hook loading systems or tippers. A full range of gearbox PTOs is also available. DAF’s close collaboration with leading European bodybuilders results in industry-leading bodybuilder-friendliness, including predefined ‘Plug and Play’ options. Furthermore, software integration enables simplified data sharing and communication between vehicle and superstructure allowing a perfect integration of controls, signals and warnings.

The New Standard In Safety And Driver Comfort

All new versions for construction, municipal and other vocational applications benefit from the new safety and driver comfort standard introduced by the New Generation XD, XF, XG and XG+.

All trucks feature a large windscreen and ultra-low belt lines for exceptional direct and indirect view, which is supported by the optional kerb view window and state-of-theart technologies such as the DAF Digital Vision System and the unique DAF Corner View. A wide suite of driver assistance systems as well as class-leading ergonomics also contribute to best-in-class safety. In addition, the New Generation DAF trucks offer a perfect accessibility, an unmatched interior space and the best possible working and living environment for outstanding driver comfort. DAF completes its successful New Generation XD, XF, XG and XG+ range with a full range of 2, 3 and 4 axle tractors and rigids for construction, municipal and other vocational applications, all requiring tailor-made solutions for highest efficiency, optimal safety and unprecedented driver comfort. DAF offers the best truck for every transport task.
