English   Mercedes-Benz Citaro with new Euro VI engines
01.10.2012 von admin


The cockpit contains large, clearly defined round dials for road speed and engine speed. Between the instruments is a colour monitor for a wide range of additional displays. The monitor is operated from a control pad located in the steering wheel.

Logical layout of switches and buttons

The placement of the switches and buttons in the cockpit draws on the latest ergonomics research findings. For example, the bottom right row of controls consists solely of the buttons operating the doors, which are constantly in use. The less frequently used automatic transmission controls are placed in a horizontal row further to the front. The light switches are placed on the left, in a clearly separated position, well to the front.


The redesign process has included a new-look left windowsill, so that the controls located here are now within the driver’s immediate reach and view. Here, too, the stowage compartments have been reworked. The driver workstation is now lit with LED lamps.

Efficient cab ventilation

The electrically opened window panel is placed at the front, so the driver can summon up a refreshing flow of cool air when required. There are also two large air vents in the instrument panel.

Behind the large air inlet grille beside and behind the driver’s seat, there is space to fit a bulky pollen filter. The air discharge behind the driver’s seat delivers a high air flow rate through the cab. The front box for ventilating and heating the driver station provides more uniform demisting of the whole of the electrically heated windscreen.
