Mercedes-Benz has delivered a couple of Econic wastetrucks to customers in Australia with two steering wheels in the cab. The Australian Mercedes-representative says: ”Dual control allows drivers to control the vehicle from the side of the cab closest to the kerb and enables a better view when picking up bins using the side loader system.”
The truck is sold in Europe with a single steering wheel for use by the waste industry, but Australian operators prefer to go down the dual control route. The Econic for the Australian customers shares all the benefits we know from ‘regular’ Econics, such as a Euro VI engine, stability control and of course the low entry cab.
