The Mercedes-Benz Axor is a heavy truck manufactured by Daimler Truck between 1999 and 2016 designed to fill the gap between the premium Actros tractors and the mostly rigid Atego trucks and was targeted at fleet customers. The model was succeeded by the Mercedes-Benz Antos in 2012 in Germany, but is still produced in Brazil, Turkey (at Aksaray), Indonesia (at Wanaherang)[1] and India (by BharatBenz at Oragadam), competitors include Ford Cargo, BMC Professional, Scania G-series, Scania P-series, Renault Midlum, Renault Premium, Renault Kerax, MAN TGM, MAN TGS, Iveco Eurocargo, Iveco Trakker, Iveco Stralis, DAF CF, Volvo FE, Volvo FM and Volvo FMX.

The truck has a relatively simple manual gear-shift, or alternatively, the Electronic Power Shift (EPS), is available, as well as a fully automatic box. The truck is powered by a 12-litre straight 6 engine (OM457LA), or 6.4-litre straight 6 engine (OM906)
