Supporting the Atego’s flexibility and minimising operational cost: the Atego powertrain.

The Atego is equipped with a strong and robust 4.2 litres, 4-cylinder or a 6.3 litres, 6-cylinder Mercedes-Benz engine, ensuring excellent performance and low fuel consumption. The large gear-spread ensures a high flexibility regarding various applications. 

Featuring reliable, high-torque 4 and 6-cylinder engines as well as gearshift systems, transmissions and axles aligned with each application, the Atego delivers particularly economical operation. Three high-performance, weight-optimised and perfectly configured 6-speed transmission systems (optionally available with the Telligent automated gearshift) enable engine power to be transferred to the road without incurring loss due to friction The low-noise, low-maintenance drive axles have a positive effect on fuel consumption. And boasting a large number of different ratios, they deliver optimum drive configurations to handle virtually all applications.

Brake system

To minimise stopping distances, we have fitted the Atego with a pneumatically actuated braking system with internally ventilated discs all round and ABS as standard. Not to mention a constant pressure system operating at 10 bar. The brakes respond faster, leaving more valuable time for the actual braking process. Even after the brakes are used repeatedly in quick succession, there is no fade or delayed response. An engine brake and constantly open throttle valve are available as standard.

Atego cabs

Two cabs for a wide range of applications. The S-cabs is ideal for short-radius operations – compact on the outside and spacious on the inside. Long cab with crew seat/bunk combination.Compact on the outside and spacious on the inside: the standard-specification S-cab is the perfect choice for city distribution.
