Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks assumes overall responsibility for municipal vehicles
Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks at Demopark 2025 with Unimog, Arocs and eActros
London, May 01, 2025 , (Oilandgaspress) ––––– Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks is presenting more than 20 Unimog implement carriers, a Mercedes-Benz eActros 400 and a Mercedes-Benz Arocs for municipal applications at this year’s Demopark near Eisenach. The focus is on vehicle solutions for year-round use – from green maintenance and winter services to road construction, transportation and irrigation. Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks can be found at stand B 243.
Full variety: over 20 Unimogs with attachments
Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks will be showcasing a wide range of vehicle solutions based on the Unimog at its trade fair appearance: the more than 20 highly specialized Unimog implement carriers will be on display, for example, with mowers, watering technology, chippers, gully cleaners, sweepers and comprehensive winter service equipment with snow ploughs, spreaders or snow blowers from various body manufacturers. A Unimog U 5023 with loading crane and self-recovery winch will be presented from the off-road series. Visitors can experience the vehicles, and their functions live during the presentation in the outdoor area.
“Low loader” – Unimog with reduced loading height
At Demopark, Mercedes-Benz Special Trucks is presenting a Unimog U 219 with a particularly low loading height of less than 1.2 meters. The loading height at the rear is therefore around 20 centimeters lower than the previous loading height of the standard Unimog. This is made possible by lowering the chassis at the factory in combination with the corresponding wheel/tyre combination. A smaller platform intermediate frame is also fitted. This concept makes loading and unloading easier and is particularly suitable for use in building yards and municipal services. The new Unimog U 219 with platform and intermediate platform frame from Eggers Fahrzeugbau GmbH can be seen at Demopark.
Uni-Touch and GSR – new technologies in use
The new Uni-Touch operating system enables more intuitive and convenient handling of attachments. The center console has been extensively redesigned, has a slimmer design and can be moved both lengthways and crossways. The number of controls has been reduced to save space thanks to the individual assignability of various functions and the ability to save recurring sequences. A touchscreen allows users to make the appropriate settings for the job at hand. The screen can be rotated and tilted.
