New Mercedes-Benz Actros in the Guinness Book of Records: the world's most economical series-production truck

New Mercedes-Benz Actros in the Guinness Book of Records: the world's most economical series-production truck
Stuttgart/Nardo, May 30, 2008 - The 40-tonne Mercedes-Benz Actros trailer/tractor combination consumes exactly 19,44 litres of diesel per 100 km or the equivalent less than 0,8 litres per hundred tonne-kilometres (tkm) – that is the outcome of a test drive 12 728,94 kilometres. A record-breaking feat that the Guinness World Records observers recognised with a world record entry in "The most fuel-efficient 40 ton truck" category.
