The low seating position enhances the driver's visibility of pedestrians and cyclists, significantly reducing blind spots. This design prioritizes the safety of vulnerable road users, especially in urban environments.
Intuitively designed controls allow drivers to focus on the road, minimizing distractions. Their ergonomic layout reduces strain and enhances operational efficiency, promoting safer journeys.
The recessed outer seat improves cab access, reducing the risk of trips or falls when entering or exiting. It ensures a safer workspace for crew members during frequent stops
Soft ambient lighting reduces glare, enhancing visibility within the cab during low-light conditions. This feature supports safer nighttime operations by minimizing eye strain for drivers.
LARGE REAR WINDOWS
Generously sized rear windows provide enhanced visibility of the surroundings, ensuring safer maneuvering in tight spaces. They support accident prevention by offering a clearer view of the working area behind the vehicle.
The electric parking brake automatically engages when the vehicle is stationary, preventing accidental rollaways. It provides peace of mind for drivers and crew, even on uneven surfaces.
The DE 5 Camera System provides comprehensive 360-degree visibility, eliminating blind spots around the vehicle. This advanced technology helps prevent accidents by allowing the driver to monitor their surroundings in real time.
An optional 6th camera can be added for even greater coverage, tailored to specific operational needs. This additional viewpoint enhances situational awareness in complex environments.
The DE Reverse Radar detects obstacles behind the vehicle, providing audible and visual warnings to the driver. This system enhances safety during reversing maneuvers, especially in congested or high-risk areas
The DE Reverse Autobraking Radar automatically applies the brakes if an obstacle is detected while reversing. This feature significantly reduces the risk of collisions, protecting both the crew and surrounding road users.
Bright work/scene lights illuminate the vehicle's immediate surroundings, ensuring safe operations in low-light conditions. They enhance visibility for the crew during loading, unloading, or maintenance activities at any time of day.
