List of Daimler AG transmissions

Last updated

Daimler AG (today: Mercedes-Benz Group AG ) is a German car manufacturing company. It manufactures its own automobile transmissions and only purchases from suppliers in individual cases. They may be used in passenger cars and SUVs, or light commercial vehicles such as vans and light trucks.

Basically there are two types of motor vehicle transmissions:

Basically there are two types of engine installation:

Every type of transmission occurs in every type of installation.

Mercedes-Benz Manual Transmissions

For manual transmissions G for gearbox and two digits are used. See G56 6-speed manual as an example. In 2019, Daimler AG discontinued the production of manual transmissions.

Mercedes-Benz Automatic Transmissions

Mercedes-Benz uses the number "720" to currently "725" to identify automatic, dual-clutch (DCT), Continuously variable (CVT), and automated manual transmissions (AMT).

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Automatic transmission</span> Type of motor vehicle transmission that automatically changes gear ratio as the vehicle moves

An automatic transmission is a multi-speed transmission used in motor vehicles that does not require any input from the driver to change forward gears under normal driving conditions. Vehicles with internal combustion engines, unlike electric vehicles, require the engine to operate in a narrow range of rates of rotation, requiring a gearbox, operated manually or automatically, to drive the wheels over a wide range of speeds.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Unimog 425</span> Motor vehicle

The Unimog 425 is the first series production heavy duty Unimog series, made by Daimler-Benz from 1975 to 1988 in the Mercedes-Benz Gaggenau plant, alongside the long-wheelbase model Unimog 435. It was first presented to the public on the 1974 DLG show in Frankfurt, then named Unimog U 120, indicating a power output of 120 PS. However, series production models were equipped with 125 PS or 150 PS engines, and therefore called U 1300 and U 1500. Daimler-Benz made three types of the Unimog 425, and a total number of 3135 were built, making the 425 much rarer compared to the longer wheelbase, but otherwise similar Unimog 435, of which more than 30,000 were built. The 425 was the first Unimog to feature the "edgy cab", which is still used in the Unimog today.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Unimog 405</span> Motor vehicle

The Unimog 405 is a vehicle of the Unimog-series by Mercedes-Benz, made by Daimler Truck Holding AG. Developed in the 1990s, the Unimog 405 has been in production since 2000. Originally, DaimlerChrysler produced the Unimog at Gaggenau; in 2002, production was moved to Wörth am Rhein. The Unimog 405 is the implement carrier version of the Unimog and the successor to most previous Unimogs. Although retaining many characteristics typical of the Unimog, the 405's axle and chassis design concept with control arms instead of torque tubes marks a "paradigmatic change" in Unimog design.
