New generation DAF XG
The new benchmark in long haul applications
Intuitive human machine interface
Primary driving functions are operated from the steering wheel or column stalks, with controls logically positioned at the driver’s fingertips.
Secondary driving functions are operated from physical switches and a touchscreen on the ergonomically laid out dashboard.
Exceptional aerodynamics
The DAF flagships are more than eye-catchingly stylish—they
have been reimagined from the ground up to deliver exceptional
aerodynamic performance.
A series of exterior design innovations direct airflow around the truck, creating extremely low air drag. The potential to reduce fuel usage and drive bottom line gains, quickly became evident over the
five million kilometre Australian validation program.
Travelling normal routes, carrying usual loads, all participating customers reported significant improvements in fuel economy.
