Ford Otosan
Ford Otosan unveiled a new tractor F-MAX, which marks an important addition to the range of trucks the company offers. Aiming at a presence in 51 markets, the company announced that the F-MAX benefits from Ford’s principles of comfort, power, efficiency, and technology. Equipped with a 2.5 m long cabin, the F-MAX is claimed to offer superior efficiency and practicality. Featuring an all-new aerodynamic design, with 2160 mm floor to ceiling height and 260 mm of seat adjustment, that offers the driver a bit more space than usual, the F-MAX cab has storage space that is modelled like the ones in aeroplanes. The upper bed is 90-degree foldable. Powered by a 500 PS engine that was designed and tested by 500 Ford Otosan engineers over five years, and across 11 countries using 233 prototype units, the F-MAX was awarded the International Truck of the Year 2019.
The F-Vision Future Truck Ford Otosan showcased is a fully electrically-powered concept truck with level-four automation. The first concept truck from the company, the F-Vision reflected on the company’s vision as far as electric, autonomous, connected, lightweight and zero emission trucks are concerned. Caring about human priorities both inside the cab and on the road, the F-Vision is about load carriage. The etruck concept, with 400 kW, aims to connect with the environment and users according to Ford Otosan sources. Fuel consumption is optimised by six-per cent in comparison to the previous models.
