A comfortable driver is a better driver. That’s why the interior is such an important part of the DAF LF. The moment the driver steps into the cab, they enjoy the highest standard of comfort, user-friendliness and safety. The newly styled dashboard is both attractive and comprehensively equipped, offering maximum ease of use, and enhanced clarity. The Driver Information Panel provides more information to increase driver comfort and efficiency. The DAF LF interior is the perfect combination of quality and comfort.
Driveline
The PACCAR PX-7 295 hp Euro 6 engine, available in the DAF LF 290, features advanced software and optimised heat and air management systems to comply with the latest emission requirements. These improvements also increase maximum torque that transfers to a ZF AS Tronic 6 speed automated gearbox fitted as standard equipment. Optional ZF Ecolite 6 speed manual, ZF Ecomid 9 speed manual, ZF AS Tronic 12 speed automated and Allison 5 speed automatic gearboxes are also available. Together with new, faster rear axle ratios the result is lower engine speeds and increased fuel savings.
Chassis
The chassis of the DAF LF 290 is designed for optimal bodybuilder friendliness by positioning various components on the inside of the chassis. As a result, the chassis is completely flat. Moreover, electrical and body interface is optimised for easy installation. The DAF LF also provides numerous efficient PTO options to support a variety of applications such as pumper, vacuum, tipper and cranes.
