Areas of Application

Light-duty distribution haulage

Specialist tasks are the norm for the Econic and it is the perfect municipal lorry for inner city distribution. With its Direct Vision cab, low-entry for ease of entry and exit and its quiet engine, the Mercedes-Benz Econic is perfect for short-distance distribution in crowded city streets.

Features include:​​

• Cab - The Econic is perfect for frequent stops as the cab is specifically designed with a low-entry concept. Both practical and safe, the walk-through cab enables the driver to conveniently enter and exit the cab from the traffic-free side of the road, and controls for the body can also be integrated with ease into the cockpit for ultimate convenience.

• Direct view - The DirectVision cab gives a wider field of vision, meaning the greatest possible view. The low positioning of the driver’s seat means that it is at eye level with other road users such as pedestrians and cyclists and the glazed folding door means there is a clear view of pavements, a particular advantage in busy cities. All these features have contributed to the Mercedes-Benz Econic achieving a 5* Direct Vision Standard rating in London.

​

Fire and rescue

Every second counts when it comes to fire and rescue, and the Econic wastes no time. Agile manoeuvrability in traffic and low-entry and wide opening doors make for rapid entry and exit.

Features include:​

• Low Entry Concept - Even when carrying heavy equipment, low-entry concept in the Mercedes-Benz Econic makes for safe and speedy access.

• Bodybuilder-Friendly Frame - The bodybuilder-friendly low frame concept means there is comprehensive scope of essential operations such as water tenders, turntable ladders and aerial rescue platforms.

Construction site transport

Already meeting tomorrow’s safety standards today, the Econic is an efficient and safe vehicle for a construction site.

Direct Vision:

The panoramic wind-screen means that there is a direct view of traffic and the construction site, minimising the possibility of accidents, an excellent feature for transporting materials during inner-city routes. The Econic truck is just as diverse as the building trade itself.

Airport

Seamlessly fitting into the ground support team, the Econic can fit under most aircraft wings from the Boeing 737 to the Airbus A380, and thanks to the standard automatic transmission the driver can concentrate on their surroundings. From aeroplanes to vehicles and employees, the panoramic glazing and reversing camera display means the driver can keep everything in sight.

Public Service Sector

The Econic truck has been designed for complete ease with the driver and the town in mind. The modern cockpit and cab floor means moving around in the Econic is comfortable and safe, with enough room for up to four people easily. Panoramic glazing and intelligent safety assistant systems such as a reversing camera display built into the dash means the Econic is a safe option even during rush hour and manoeuvring in tight streets. With just one step to enter and exit the cab, fast unloading of bins and containers has never been easier.
