Designed for the most demanding off-road wor k, EUROC ARGO
4x4 incor por ates a specific ser ies of solutions for protecting
its str ucture: steel bumpers, retr actable access steps and a
specific radiator gua rd. Available with a shor t or long cab
with low roof, it has a gross vehicle weight of 11.5 or 15 tonnes
and a r ange of wheelbases measur ing from 3,240 to 4,150 mm.
EUROC ARGO 4x4 utilises a 6-cylinder Tector engine in 240 HP.
The ZF six-speed manual gearboxes are fitted with a servoshift
system for easy gear-changing even in the most demanding
wor k conditions.

Per manent four-wheel dr ive is provided by a longitudinal

differential, which distr i butes torque between the front and rear
axles. Whats more , yo u can select a fast or slow distr ibutor
r atio, according to conditions (on / off road). All the differentials
are equipped with a manually oper ated locking system to
ensure tr action even in especially adver se , low-gr ip conditions.
EUROC ARGO 4x4 is fitted with a double-reduction rear axle
and is available in ver sions with sing le or twin wheels.
Br aking comes cour tes y of simplex dr um br akes on the rear
axle and duplex dr ums up front, while you can specify either
par abolic or semi-elliptical leaf spr ing suspension.

EUROC ARGO 4x4 is at home anywhere . The outstandingly low

emissions of the engines and the excellent steer ing angle (from
40 to 48 depending on tyres) enable you to use it on urban
constr uction sites too.

 C O M F O R t & ergonomics

For IVECO, human-centred design means offer ing productivity,

ergonomics, practicality a nd comfort in a sing le
packa ge . Climb into a EUROC ARGO cab, and youll see that
ever ything is clear, simple and in easy reach. The layout of the
functions is simple and intuitive , with all the instruments
directly in front of the driver, all the controls in the
steer ing wheel area, and the most frequently used buttons
grouped together on the dashboard in the most accessible
positions.

The gear stick is built into the compact, linear dashboard, making
it quicker and easier to cross from one side of the cab to the
other (essential for urb an wor k).

The stor age compar tments are made of soft-touch mater ials
and located in easily accessible positions in var ious areas of the
vehicle . The inter ior door panels, meanwhile , have lar ge stor age
pockets.

The power take-offs are managed by an ECU (Expansion Module),

which is oper ated by the dr iver by means of a dash-mounted
switch. This too helps optimise productivity, reliability and safety.

The ca b componentry a nd ergonomics are designed to

ensure the ideal dr iving position. You can oper ate the steer ing
column combination-switch controls without taking your hands
off the steer ing wheel, and theyre grouped together on just
two lever s, which incor por ate the automated tr ansmission gear
selector. The seats a nd steering wheel a re easy to
adjust.

The buttons controlling the electr ic windows and mir ror s are
located in the ar m-rests built into the door panels. The optional
sat-nav system is house d in the middle of the dashboard.
On the instr ument panel, you can keep a constant eye on all key
vehicle and route par ameter s, such as fuel level, tyre pressure ,
fuel consumption, maintenance deadlines, tr avelling times and
aver age speed.

C O M F O R t & ergonomics
For maximum quality of life on boa rd on every job,
EUROC ARGO is available with 3 different types of cab;
+ short (MLC) for distr ibution and shor t-haul wor k or when
body length is a pr ior ity,
+ long, with low or high roof (MLL) for long-haul wor k
and jobs involving over night stops.

Ever y cab can be fitted with air conditioning and a progr ammable
heater, so that you can quickly get the cab temper ature you want,
with optimum air distr ibution.

The inter ior lighting is ver y pr actical, thanks to the two ceiling-
mounted spot-lights.

Euroca rgos seats, upholstered in either cloth, or

PVC, ensure the highest levels of strength and pr acticality.

The long-cab ver sion is equipped with 1 or 2 bunks (an extr a-

size single bunk is available as an option) and can be fitted with
a fr idge or insulated cool-box.

On the ver sion with double passenger seat, the centr al back-rest
can be folded complete ly flat.

The sleeping area features an angle-adjustable lamp and a bed

module, for controlling the lighting and air conditioning, and
opening and closing the door s, windows and skylight.

High-quality mater ials and finishes give the EUROC ARGO cab an
eleg a ntly practical look. And the excellent sound insulation
makes it an ideal environment for wor king and relaxing.

The secret of EUROCARGOs Tector engines lies in

their flexibility: with consistently high levels of torque across
a wide rev r ange , they ensure fluid progress, fewer gear shifting,
less engine wear and higher ener gy-efficiency.

EUROC ARGOs diesel engines are turbochar ged, common r ail

units with waste-gate , available in one displacement 5.9-litre
with 6 cylinder s and four power r atings (from 180 to 280 HP,
with maximum torque r anging from 570 to 930 Nm).

All EUROCARGO engines meet EURO 3 STANDARDS.

the answer in the for m of highly flexible engines, which minimise
the need to change gear.

Allison a utomatic tra nsmission with torque conver ter

is available on the 18 -tonne vehicles. These gearboxes offer
unbeatable comfor t for city use , where stop & go wor k is
par for the cour se: since urban wor k involves about 1,200 gear
changes a day, you can see how much stress and ener gy an auto
box saves for the dr iver.

The ZF ma nual tra nsmissions (with 6 and 9 speeds)

are lighter and have an innovative calibr ated synchronisation
system, for outstanding ease of gear selection and longer life of
mechanical components.

As well as a wide r ange of tr ansmissions, EUROC ARGO offer s a

wide r ange of rear axle r atios to suit ever y mission: the long
r atios are ideal for out-of-town wor k at high speeds, and the
shor t r atios are ideal when you need high levels of tr action,
such as on compactor s.

To ensure long, trouble-free service-life , EUROC ARGO

uses an outsta nding ly strong fra me , with the mechanical qualities
youd expect from a heavy vehicle , but lower tare weight.

Thanks to its H-structure in special steel it can readily withstand

the stresses gener ated by an unbalanced load or sudden change of
tr ajector y.

EUROC ARGO is available with pa ra bolic or semi-elliptical

suspension, or a ir suspension (with 4 bellows for the 18-tonne
ver sions) with ECAS system (Electronically Controlled Air
Suspension). EC AS ensures high levels of comfor t at the wheel, and
constant suspension geometr y regardless of speed, load and type of
road surface . It also acts on br aking pressure , which is modulated
according to the load on the axles.
Developed on the strength of IVECOs long exper ience in heavy
haulage , quar r y and constr uction vehicles, the front a nd rea r
axles a nd bra king system ensure high relia bility and
consistent perfor mance over time .

A technologically advanced br aking system ensures the safety of

the vehicles occupants and car go alike .

The bra king system is hydro-pneumatic on the 9- to

10-tonne r ange and fully pneumatic on the 12- to 18-tonne
r ange . With the availab ility of a wide r ange of options, vehicle
configur ations can be tailored to your specific applications and
most frequently used routes, thus ensur ing safety and comfor t in
all surface conditions.

The whole EUROC ARGO r ange is equipped with a standard
