DAF ATe edition

With a view to lowering fuel consumption as far as possible, measures were firstly taken to optimise aerodynamics. One of these is the addition of a complete package of roof spoilers and side fenders, combined with side skirts, which will be supplied on the CF85 and XF105 ATe edition as standard.

Tyres

Tyres that have a low rolling resistance are supplied as standard. These come in size 315/70R22.5, and their purpose is to lower the height of the truck and to further reduce air resistance.

Direct drive driveline

The ATe models have a direct drive driveline with a 2.69:1 reduction in order to achieve optimum fuel efficiency. A version with 2.53:1 reduction is available as an option for lighter use and applications.

ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control)

Adaptive Cruise Control, which ensures that the truck automatically remains at a safe distance from the vehicle in front, is fitted as standard. The MX Engine Brake is used as a retarder to keep fuel consumption as low as possible and to improve load capacity by tens of kilos.

DAF EcoDrive Training

All CF85 and XF105 ATe edition models come with DAF EcoDrive driver training*, which permanently reduces actual fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions by 3 to 5% on average.  

EEV (Enhanced environmentally friendly vehicles)

The new CF85 ATe edition is fitted with a 12.9-litre PACCAR MX engine with 340 kW/460 hp in the ultra-clean EEV model. EEV engines (Enhanced environmentally friendly vehicles) produce 33% fewer soot particles than DAF Euro 5 engines, which are already very clean. What is more, EEV emission values are achieved without a soot filter, which means a weight advantage of around 30 kilograms, as well as more free space on the chassis.
