DAF XG Trucks for Sale (2)

With production from the end of 2021, the new top of the range truck from DAF has finally arrived. With a brand new cab design – the first for the XF-type range since the 1990s, the brand new XG range will has set some new standards for cab design. The relaxing of certain length rules means that DAF are the first out with the cab designed to meet these new criteria. That’s what makes the new XG range particularly exciting. DAF are continuing with their XF range, but, as with Scania and their ‘S’, DAF are introducing the premium XG and going one further with the XG+ range. There won’t be many used examples of the XG trucks for sale until towards the end of 2022 – but it will be about 2025 until we see these on the UK’s used truck market in any great numbers. Keep checking back to find any ex demonstrator DAF XG trucks for sale from the DAF dealers.

Dec 2022 – Electric Steered Pusher Axle Introduced

The DAF XG, along with all new generation trucks (XF and XD), is being fitted with an Electric Hydraulic Steering (EHS) system on 6×2 tractor and rigid vehicles with a steered pusher axle. This new steering system replaces a mechanical variant. The two steering arms and the auxiliary drop arm are replaced by an electronically-controlled steering pump unit, which results in 30 kilograms lower weight. Thanks to reduced friction, the new EHS system results in a 0.3% fuel efficiency gain as well. In addition, components of the new system take less space on the chassis, allowing up to 40% larger fuel tanks on the tractor version. The turning circle of the tractor and rigid chassis models has been further reduced by 12%, resulting in optimal manoeuvrability. At speeds of over 45 km/h, the new electric hydraulic steered pusher axle locks itself in the straight-ahead position
