Unimog 405

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The Unimog 405 is the implement carrier version of the Mercedes-Benz Unimog series, made by Daimler Truck Holding AG. Developed in the 1990s, it has been in production since 2000, first at Gaggenau and, from 2002, at Wörth am Rhein. It succeeded most earlier Unimogs, and its axle and chassis concept with control arms instead of torque tubes marked a paradigmatic change in Unimog design. It can be classed legally as a 7.5-tonne lorry, a 40-tonne lorry or an agricultural tractor. Three major variants were built, UGN, LUG and UGE, in 22 types in total, and two of those types were sold in North America as the Freightliner Unimog U 500.
