The new Trakker in brief:
The quarry and construction vehicle market is extremely complex, because of the many applications: vehicles with 2, 3 or 4 axles with or without all-wheel drive; a wide range of power; trucks and tractors; light or oversized models; and special variants for special outfits.
Trakker is a work tool designed to meet every kind of extreme off-road mission on wheels ranging from 18 to 72 ton.
The real innovation with new Trakker is mainly the new Stralis-based cabin, resulting from the work carried out with great determination, in collaboration with the dealers and customers who took part in the design, to improve its driving comfort and the life onboard - which is now widely acknowledged as being vitally important to productivity and safety.
New Trakker is designed from the outset to meet customers’ needs and expectations, primarily in terms of strength and reliability. New Trakker represents a perfect blend of strength, reliability, and the comfort of new Stralis AD and AT cabs.
The new Trakker range is wider than ever. It boasts a product range, in both left and right hand drive, which allows customers to tailor the product to their specific mission. The range includes 2 engines (Cursor 8 and Cursor 13) and 2 cabins (Active Day and Active Time).
Rigid truck versions are available in 4x2, 4x4, 6x4, 6x6 and 8x8 configurations with power ratings from 310 to 500hp. Tractor versions are available in 4x2, 4x4, 6x4 and 6x6 configurations with power ratings from 360 to 500hp.
New Trakker reduces maintenance costs minimizing downtime with prolonged engine oil change intervals (once per year) and through a quick and accurate diagnostics onboard. As for engines, a feature of new Trakker is the Cursor engine range, a reference point in terms of torque, life, maintenance and operating costs: they consume – in accordance with the various missions - 2 to 5% less compared to the already economic Euro 3 versions.
Whether it is required to operate under the most extreme off-road conditions or cover most of its life on-road with occasional off-road excursions, new Trakker can be specified to optimise payload and fuel consumption.
The new Trakker – like the Stralis - was designed to demonstrate Iveco fundamental values towards excellence: Commitment, Reliability, Performance, Team Spirit and Power.
The values of the new Trakker:
In addition to the four Iveco values – Commitment, Reliability, Performance, Team Spirit – Trakker inherits the Stralis’ product value too, Power, to reaffirm one of the strong points which distinguish the excellence of Iveco engineering solutions.
Power:
For Trakker, Power means offering the extremely modern Cursor Euro 4 and 5 SCR engines with a swept volume from 8 to 13 liters, power from 310 to 500 HP and maximum torque from 1,300 to 2,300 Nm. Efficient, reliable engines, with optimized power and torque delivery over a wide range of engine speeds to ensure maximum power availability in arduous conditions.
Commitment:
Trakker Commitment is the sense of responsibility for the customer’s business without forgetting the comfort and safety of driver who spends most of his time in a truck. The close family relationship between Trakker and Stralis is clearly evident: highly ergonomic cabins, enhanced driver comfort comparable with road vehicles.
Reliability:
For Trakker it means keeping promises: product reliability, durability and high safety standards in every situation. Reliability for Trakker means also flexibility for body builder intervention supported by a wide range of transmission, direct engine-driven expandable PTOs, easily dependable body builder electric connections, and more.
Performance:
Trakker Performance is supporting the customer’s business value. It means raising productivity and reducing running costs. Trakker assets are optimized bodybuilder intervention, servicing downtime, and consumption. Trakker’s new chassis electrical system improves flexibility for body builder intervention and periodic servicing. Periodic maintenance time is minimized in order that the vehicle spends as much time as possible working hard. Always a vital consideration is fuel cost. Trakker’s Euro 4/5 Cursor engines return excellent fuel consumption.
Team Spirit:
It means working alongside the customer for the whole vehicle life: during the product development, through the work of 2,500 skilled designers and numerous R&D centers which involves the Customer in the design stage; during the purchase, with the support of skilled dealers and financing solutions to meet all company needs; during the vehicle operation, through the daily work of a 24/7 call centre and an efficient and widespread service network (more than 3,000 service points in over 100 countries).
Through the supply of such World-class High-end Technology Products and best-in-class after sales support IECC is committed to be an important player in Oman’s Infrastructure development.
