Mercedes-Benz Atego named top construction truck07 December 2016

The Mercedes-Benz Atego has been named Best Civil Engineering and Construction Truck 2016 by Commercial Fleet magazine.

Stephen Briers, the magazine’s editor-in-chief, says: “The Mercedes-Benz Atego offers operators an established, trustworthy and robust chassis platform to which a multitude of body applications can be attached. With a high level of safety and sound whole-life costs, the Atego is a fleet favourite and the backbone of countless operations.”

The range offers chassis solutions from 6.5 to 16 tonnes gvw, with power from four- and six-cylinder Euro 6 engines which drive through standard-fit Mercedes PowerShift 3 automated gearboxes.

The awards were held in Birmingham and hosted by writer and actress Sally Phillips, with entertainment from the star of BBC TV’s Mock the Week, Milton Jones.
