Outstanding driveability

Thanks to high torque at low revs, the PACCAR MX-11 and MX-13 engines deliver superb driveability. In addition, the latest generation of TraXon automated gearboxes makes manoeuvring much easier.

Smoother than ever

The increased cab length takes advantage of a new front chassis design with high torsional stiffness and low weight, contributing to exceptional driver comfort. This is also supported by the new cab suspension with a new damper design, as well by a rear axle suspension with a new geometry. The New Generation DAF trucks offer superior ride and handling.

Quiet, very quiet

Significantly contributing to the unique comfort of the New Generation trucks are the extremely low levels of interior noise, vibrations and harshness. Also in this area the XF, XG and XG+ set a new industry standard.
