A relatively new addition to the Mercedes-Benz line-up, the Atego is a mid-size, medium-duty rigid truck fit for a variety of applications. Whereas the Actros range caters for the 6x2 and 6x4 segments of the market, this unit is tailored towards 4x2 and 4x4 axle configurations. Powering the Atego is a robust six-cylinder engine that makes light work of every obstacle thanks to an enormous level of torque available to drivers. It feels smooth, refined and provides ample accelerating prowess. The latest series includes Mercedes-Benz’s new AMT transmission, which is a fully automated manual with dual pedal operating mode. An integrated engine brake is another welcome addition found in the Atego, offering sizeable stopping power. It is also an upgrade in a reliability sense, with those pesky repair costs set to fall on account of the increased longevity of these brakes. With an impressive suspension setup, overall ride quality is particularly comforting, while an updated cabin will come as a great relief to those who spend most of their time on the roads every day. Most of all, the Mercedes-Benz Atego is a versatile and well-specced rigid that lives up to the high quality of its brand name.
