Full suite of improvements to strengthen DAF XD, XF, XG and XG⁺

All New Era DAF vans profit from good aerodynamics, extremely environment friendly drivelines and a variety of superior driver help programs, leading to a formidable gasoline effectivity enchancment of as much as 10%. Now, an extra 3% acquire might be realized by way of driveline and aerodynamic enhancements.

The ability of effectivity

Optimized driveline effectivity is achieved by way of new engine valve timing, a twin drive coolant pump and a 2-cylinder clutched air compressor. Turbo and EGR programs have additionally been up to date. New gasoline injectors help glorious effectivity, reliability and sturdiness.

Improvements to DAF’s common SR1344 rear axle program embrace a brand new pinion design which affords enhanced power and sturdiness and likewise permits the best PACCAR MX-13 energy ranking (390 kW/530 hp) to optimally profit from DAF’s down rushing philosophy. A brand new shifting technique of the transmission and the engine optimizations lead to 7% decrease rpm at cruising pace (950 as an alternative of 1,030), relying on the configuration.

Because of their glorious gasoline effectivity and low CO₂ emissions, a number of fashions of the New Era DAF meet the Maut Class 3 requirements, doubtlessly saving 1000’s of euros yearly in German highway tax.

To optimize the effectivity of the New Era DAF fashions, the DAF Digital Imaginative and prescient digital camera system (changing the standard mirrors), Predictive Cruise Management and low resistance tires grow to be normal on 4×2 and 6×2 variations* to supply one other 6% gasoline effectivity acquire. For patrons who didn’t order these options earlier than, complete gasoline consumption and CO₂ profit will probably be as much as 9%. In every day follow, the gasoline effectivity acquire may very well be even be bigger, as additionally the aerodynamic package deal is normal.

All New Era DAF vans include a 10-year PACCAR Join subscription. This new on-line fleet administration platform supplies real-time data on the efficiency of your complete fleet, particular person autos in addition to drivers to optimize effectivity and returns. The platform additionally allows environment friendly over-the-air car updates. A significant good thing about PACCAR Join is the simple integration with present logistic functions from so referred to as ‘third events’, setting a brand new normal in fleet administration programs.

The ability of security

All New Era DAF vans are main the best way in security, due to a complete full vary of Superior Driver Assistant Programs (ADAS) that are delivered ex-factory. These embrace Superior Emergency Braking System, Drive-off Help, DAF Facet & Flip Help, Lane Departure Warning and Velocity Restrict Recognition. And to boost security efficiency, the Occasion Information Recorder data photos and information when the AEBS brake warning is activated, whereas the brand new DAF Drowsiness Detection assesses the driving force’s state of alertness.

The ability of consolation

The driveline updates lead to even decrease noise ranges at cruising circumstances. The brand new shifting technique of the transmission enhances drivability due to a fair smoother shifting efficiency.

The brand new PACCAR Join on-line fleet administration platform options Linked Truck Navigation. This enables the house base to ship full route planning immediately onto the secondary display screen within the truck for highest driver consolation.

A full suite of improvements additional strengthens the trade main place of the DAF XD, XF, XG and XG⁺ fashions, setting new requirements in effectivity, security and driver consolation. Gross sales will begin on the IAA exhibition in Hanover.

DAF demonstrates environmental management

On the IAA Transportation 2024, DAF is demonstrating environmental management by displaying its full vary of state-of-the-art XB, XD and XF Electrical autos for metropolis, regional and lengthy haul functions. These progressive vans characteristic extremely environment friendly drivelines and modular battery packs for ‘zero emission’ ranges as much as 500 kilometers on a single cost. All DAF Electrical vans use LFP batteries (Lithium Ferro Phosphate) with a excessive power density which are very advantageous when it comes to thermal security, battery lifetime and the variety of charging cycles.

Along with a sequence of first-class electrical autos, the whole service providing makes DAF the right companion within the power transition. This consists of devoted consulting providers, in addition to excellent charging stations from PACCAR Energy Options, which additionally affords power storage programs.

On show on the IAA Transportation 2024 is an summary of present and future sustainable driveline options. The environment friendly and dependable PACCAR MX engines are totally ready to function on HVO biodiesel, which reduces CO₂ emissions by over 90% ‘well-to-wheel’. Variations that run on B100 Fame biodiesel will grow to be accessible early subsequent 12 months.

DAF is main the best way in hydrogen know-how, as DAF is at present creating a hydrogen combustion engine, which is predicted to be prepared for market launch within the coming years.

On show on the IAA DAF stand can also be an e-Axle, which is below improvement and illustrates the corporate’s steady pursuit of a full suite of extremely environment friendly powertrain options.

With a full vary of battery electrical autos backed by a complete devoted service providing, on the IAA Transportation 2024, PACCAR and DAF are demonstrating their management in supporting prospects of their power transition.

‘Prepared for the Future’

“The most effective vans in the marketplace have grow to be even higher”, acknowledged Harald Seidel, DAF Vehicles’ president. “Because of a sequence of improvements, the New Era DAF XD, XF, XG and XG⁺ fashions are setting new requirements once more in effectivity, security and driver consolation. Moreover, we’re providing a full vary of battery electrical autos with ranges as much as 500 kilometers. Within the meantime, we proceed to discover and develop various, sustainable highway transport applied sciences. Our presence on the IAA Transportation 2024 illustrates that DAF is prepared for the longer term.”
