How reliable are DAF trucks? ›

The most popular DAF truck of the 90's was the 65 and 75 and 85, all of which had a wedge-shaped cabin. These were powered 6.24-litre, 8.65-litre and 11.6-litre engines. There was also the 745, a short-lived model with an ATI driveline. In our experience, DAF trucks are extremely reliable.

Thanks to the successful LF and XD models, DAF received no less than two 'Best Rigid Truck' awards. The LF was named the best rigid in the category up to 12 tons, while the XD was crowned Best Rigid Truck in the segment above 12 tons.

DAF trucks have the most spacious cabins available on the market. Drivers see and experience this space in all elements of the cabin — whether they are working, sleeping or on a stop-off. There is significantly more space in the interior than in any other truck.

DAF is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PACCAR Inc, the global technology leader in the design and manufacturing of premium quality light, medium and heavy-duty commercial vehicles.

Using the 11-litre PACCAR MX-11 engine, the DAF XF posted a consumption of 21.26 litres per 100 kilometres – that works out to 13.29 miles per gallon (imperial) and an AdBlue consumption of only 1.32 l/100 km.

Market-leading fuel efficiency starts with the engine. The DAF XF is powered by multi-torque PACCAR MX-11 and MX-13 engines with new power ratings, including an extra powerful 390 kW/530 hp variant. Many innovations result in even more torque at lower rpm for highest fuel efficiency.

Do DAF make their own engines? ›

For 60 years, DAF has built its own engines, and in that time it has earned a worldwide reputation for highly efficient engines that have as little impact on the environment as possible.

After British Leyland became the Rover Group in 1986, the truck business was spun off and merged with DAF Trucks to form DAF NV, which operated as Leyland DAF in the UK. After DAF NV was placed in administration in 1993, Leyland DAF was purchased in a management buyout and rebranded Leyland Trucks.

Daf has a great reputation for its construction vehicle and the 410 CF will only help to further enhance it. It's a good no-nonsense truck with lots to offer.
