Camion Mercedes-Benz: libri - storia e modelli

Mercedes-Benz Trucks

Originally perceived as a European manufacturer, today, Mercedes-Benz builds trucks in the four corners of the world - from the Americas and Australia, to China and Russia - and all of these entities and the products they build are explored here.
Historical information and material from Mercedes-Benz's official archives is combined with original colour images of working trucks, including the very latest environmentally compliant models, to give the reader an in-depth picture of how the company has grown, both organically and by acquisition, to become the most dominant global truck maker.

Mercedes Actros - La gamme lourde Mercedes, des origines à Euro VI

In 1996, Mercedes reinvented its high-end truck by launching the first Actros. Fifteen years later, the new Actros revealed in 2011 laid the foundations for the heavy-duty technology for the next two decades. Starting with the flagship Actros, Mercedes developed specialized versions for heavy regional tasks with the Axor, then the Antos, and for construction sites with the Arocs.

This book summarises the prestigious Actros ancestry and in particular looks back at the genesis of the Mercedes V engines used since 1969. Then the entire evolution of the Actros from the first prototypes to the Euro 6 ranges is described and analysed. The beautiful images, omnipresent and abundantly captioned, serve all aspects of the subject treated.

20 years later, Werner Oswald published the first edition of this incomparable overview, and it has lost none of its content value to this day. However, the look and design had become outdated, and as with the successfully launched new edition of the brand's passenger cars, the over-complete truck volume is also being reissued: in a larger format and with many new pictures.

Mercedes-Benz LKW - Die legendären Langhauber 1945-1962

When Germany lay in ruins in 1945, every truck, no matter how roadworthy, was worth its weight in gold. The upturn in truck construction also enabled Mercedes-Benz to return to the world market: their bonneted trucks paved the way for the Swabians to become the largest truck manufacturer in the world.

Mercedes PKW und LKW 1935-1945

At first, the Reichswehr had to use commercially available cars, as the construction of military vehicles was prohibited by the victorious powers after losing the First World War. This led to the introduction of so-called off-road cars based on existing models, the "Kübelwagen".
It was only after 1933 that military-grade cars began to be produced, such as the Mercedes-Benz 170 V, which was delivered to the troops in considerable numbers with a Kübelwagen body. This was followed by off-road three-axle Kübelwagen such as the G 1.

Trucks were of particular importance because the First World War had shown the importance of motorized supply transport. In the first few years, the Ordnance Department relied on commercially available models with few extras.
The merger of Daimler and Benz in 1926 created the basis for a completely new commercial vehicle program, including the newly introduced diesel engine, then known as the "crude oil engine." In 1928, series production of the three-axle G 3 truck began, which was fitted with a body for the signal troops in large numbers.
After 1933, truck construction experienced a rapid upswing, with Daimler-Benz holding the market leadership. Special military off-road vehicles were now also developed.

Experience the details in vivid texts and historical photos, which contribute greatly to understanding this multifaceted chapter of the Mercedes-Benz history.

Mercedes-Benz LKW - Die unvergessenen Kurzhauber

From 1959, Mercedes-Benz launched trucks with a new design in which the engine was no longer located completely in front of the driver's cab, but was pushed a little way into it. This design, known as the "Kurzhauber" truck, was a great success worldwide: the heavy short-hood trucks were produced until the early 1980s, and the light and medium-sized trucks even until 1996.
