World premiere for the new Actros in Berlin. Just in time for the IAA Commercial Vehicles Show, which is taking place in Hanover, Germany, from 20 to 27 September 2018, Mercedes-Benz is today unveiling the new flagship from Mercedes-Benz Trucks to the world's press at the Premiere Night. A further key assistance system is Sideguard Assist. Manoeuvres involving turning off are part and parcel of the Econic's deployment as a waste collection vehicle in city traffic. Ultimately all roads within a defined area have to be driven down. The driver has to pay attention to traffic lights, signs, oncoming and crossing traffic and at the same time keep an eye out for pedestrians and cyclists at the side of the vehicle.
