Introduction of the New Truck Generation - The New Arocs (Model 964)
"power" transmission mode (G0V)
The "power" transmission mode (G0V) familiar from
the new Actros and Antos is standard equipment in
the Arocs with automated manual transmission. In
"power" mode the shift operations are performed at
an engine speed that is 100 rpm higher than in
EcoRoll mode. However, the shift rpm is only
increased if a corresponding torque is demanded.
"offroad" transmission mode (G0W)
The "offroad" transmission mode (G0W) is standard
in all AWD vehicles and optional in the vehicles
without all-wheel drive. In "offroad" mode the shift
operations are performed at an engine speed that is
100 rpm higher, regardless of the torque
demanded. This enables power-oriented, dynamic
driving at higher engine speeds and better utiliza-
tion of the engine braking effect.
In addition to the "power" and "offroad" modes, the
following new transmission modes are available for
the new Arocs:
•
"fire-service" (G0X):
Special equipment for
fire-fighting vehicles
•
"heavy" (G0Y):
Standard in vehicles with turbo
retarder coupling (G3Y) and preinstallation for
heavy-duty trucks (V9A)
•
"municipal" (G0S):
Special equipment for
municipal vehicles
