Telligent® systems New Actros
The new Actros offers a range of cabs and specification for every task and budget. Innovative technology provides an economical transport solution, long-distance or short-haul. In addition, the Actros boasts hard-wearing good looks and of course, exemplary Mercedes-Benz standards of safety.
For the third year running, Actros has been awarded International Truck of the Year thanks to its superb specification and design. Features like Telligent Lane Assist, a larger and more comfortable bed with adjustable head section, and the innovative PowerShift 2 gearbox all add up to a truck that’s safer, more comfortable and easier to drive than ever before.

Telligent® systems
Telligent® is a complete package of systems covering all aspects of operation in the new Actros. Intelligent systems monitor and regulate the vehicle functions, giving drivers a safer, smoother ride and prolonging the life of the vehicle and parts.
Proximity control
Keeping your distance is perhaps one of the most important rules of safety, yet one that is becoming harder and harder to obey. That’s why Telligent® proximity control is available as an option in conjunction with a retarder. This driver assistance system permits a more relaxed style of driving by scanning the traffic situation up to 150 metres in front of the vehicle, monitoring the distance to the vehicle in front and the speed at which it is travelling and analysing any changes. As a result, the speed of the new Actros and its distance from the vehicle in front are automatically adjusted to the changing traffic situation.
Braking system
The standard-specification Telligent® brake system comprises a dual-circuit brake system, internally ventilated disc brakes all round, ABS, ASR and auxiliary brakes such as the engine brake or retarder. The system relays each brake signal at lightning speed – much quicker than any mechanical system could. It also allows brake power to be metered as sensitively as in a passenger car.
The braking force is optimally distributed between tractor and trailer according to the load. The Telligent® brake system also ensures that the brake pads on the different axles do not wear at significantly different rates.
Brake Assist instantly recognises a critical situation by the speed with which the driver steps on the brake and acts at lightning speed, activating the full force of the brakes.
The integral retarder function ensures that when the service brake is applied, the engine brake (constantly-open throttle and brake valve) and, where fitted, the retarder are automatically activated.
Automated Gearshift
The Telligent® automated gearshift is optional for construction vehicles. It lightens the driver’s workload without any loss of control or sensitivity from the ergonomic hand-held gearshift.
Gear changes can be made without the driver having to operate the clutch, though the driver is still free to take control of gear selection at any time.
Lane Assist
The optional Telligent® Lane Assist lane recognition system is always on call in case the vehicle unintentionally strays too close to the edge of a lane.
A small camera located behind the windscreen monitors road-markings and relays the information to an on-board computer. If the lateral distance between the vehicle and the lane markings changes, the system emits an audible signal via the stereo speakers, alerting the driver to correct the course of the vehicle before any problems arise.
Stability control
Telligent® stability control is available as special equipment for 4×2 and 6×2 Actros semi-trailer tractors.
It recognises potentially dangerous situations like skidding or swerving, and acts to redress the balance by adjusting the vehicle’s power supply and braking. Through systematic adjustment of the engine torque, precisely metered tractor braking and trailer braking control combine to help drivers avoid dangerous situations.
Combined with an alert and careful driving style, Telligent® stability control can make a significant difference to security for both vehicle and personnel.
