DAF XB series awarded in Czech Republic and Slovakia
The DAF XB distribution range was recognised for its perfect blend of low environmental impact, outstanding efficiency, advanced safety features and superior driving comfort.
 
The DAF XB series for distribution applications is offered with efficient PACCAR PX-5 and PX-7 diesel engines (124 kW/170 hp to 227 kW/310 hp) as well as fully electric drivelines (120 kW/156 hp to 190 kW/250 hp) for zero-emission driving ranges up to 300 kilometres. The vehicle is available with Day, Extended Day, and Sleeper Cab as well as in a dedicated XBC version for construction applications.

‘Class-leading’

The New Generation XB stands out because of its high payload, unsurpassed manoeuvrability and excellent bodybuilder-friendliness, as is once again illustrated by the survey conducted by Transport a Logistika, among owners, drivers and transport professionals in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. In addition, the jury states that the XB series offers class-leading driver comfort and outstanding safety, also thanks to a comprehensive suite of ADAS systems.

‘XB is industry favourite’

Michal Štengl, chairman of the jury and editor-in-chief of the magazine Transport a Logistika, “The XB continues to lead the light truck category. It remains the transport industry’s favourite in the segment of distribution trucks up to 19-tonnes. DAF proves that light medium duty trucks can deliver a remarkably enjoyable driving experience and excellent user-friendliness.”
