19.09.2012 von admin


Technology of tomorrow in a bus of today

The Mercedes‑Benz Travego Edition 1 ushers in a new era for touring coaches. This flagship model from Mercedes-Benz Buses is the first touring coach to meet the coming Euro VI emission standard, which becomes mandatory from the beginning of 2014. The Travego Edition 1 is powered by the new BlueEfficiency Power engine generation and features a new transmission with a new gearshift, a further upgraded, ergonomically optimised cockpit and new safety features. This means that customers with an eye to the future can already become trendsetters in environmental compatibility with the flagship model from Mercedes-Benz.

High-torque Mercedes-Benz engine from the new BlueEfficiency Power generation


The engine of the Travego Edition 1 is a vertically installed in-line six-cylinder from the new OM 471 series. It has a displacement of 12.8 litres and delivers 350 kW (476 hp) at 1 800 rpm. The impressively high maximum torque is 2 300 Nm at 1 100 rpm. This data and the power delivery characteristics of the new engine ensure superior performance on the road.

The engine features the unrivalled common-rail injection system with X-PULSE pressure boosting. This leads to extremely precise fuel injection with cylinder-selective control, high injection pressures of up to 2 100 bar and freely configurable injection. The new engine is a precondition for low fuel consumption, low exhaust emissions and smooth running. In the Travego Edition 1 the engine of tomorrow is already available today.

Additional advantages stem from the effective, three-stage engine brake and the asymmetrical turbocharger. Despite exhaust gas recirculation, this ensures a fast response to the accelerator for agile driving characteristics. The torque curve of the new engine allows unusually low, fuel-saving engine speeds. The responsiveness and enormous pulling power of the new engine are remarkable: the engine already delivers practically all of its 2 300 Nm of torque at 1 000 rpm, and 2 000 Nm of torque at as little as 900 rpm.
