Volkswagen Constellation

Trucks and Commercial Road Vehicles

The Volkswagen Constellation is the flagship heavy truck of Volkswagen Truck and Bus, made at Resende in Brazil since 2005 and sold mainly in South America. The cab-over-engine truck was released in September 2005 after being designed at the Volkswagen Group design studio in Wolfsburg and engineered in Brazil, South Africa and Europe through a seven million kilometre test programme. It covers the 13 to 57 tonne combination mass range in daycab and sleeper layouts, with MWM and Cummins diesel engines and, from 2007, the Volkswagen NGD 370 turbodiesel, paired with ZF transmissions. Renato Martins won the 2006 Brazilian Formula Truck title in a Constellation.
