The Axor is a heavy truck that Daimler built from 2001 to fill the gap between the premium Actros tractors and the mostly rigid Atego trucks, and it was aimed at fleet customers. It combined the heavy Actros chassis with the long Atego cab, and it grew out of the heavy-duty Atego weight class of 18 to 40 tonnes. At first it was offered only as a tractor, but the 2005 facelift made the former Atego models above 18 tonnes part of the Axor range. It has a 12 litre straight six engine, or a 6.4 litre straight six. The Antos and Arocs succeeded it in 2013 and it stayed on, and in 2013 an Indian-built BharatBenz version was sold as the Fuso FJ, FO and FZ.
