The front of the new Actros dispenses almost entirely with straight lines and flat surfaces. Curves along with contrasting concave and convex lines give the vehicle an independent and unique character. A typical feature is the absence of fashionable elements in the design language. Given the large number of cab variants, the new Actros features a modular design. Regardless of the parameters — whether 2.5 or 2.3 metres wide, whether the cab has an engine tunnel or not, and whether a flat roof, an extra high roof, or any roof variant in between — the appearance is clear and well-defined in any case, with the proportions just right.
Statement by the Jury
The Actros impressed the jury with its new approach to designing the cab. Despite its modular design, it offers in integrated appearance, with a unique self-contained presence.
