More space, comfort and convenience for drivers all the time

Croner’s cabin has been designed to be the perfect ‘office’ for drivers, with a pleasant overall appearance, logical control scheme and numerous features for driver comfort and convenience.

Excellent ergonomics

The Croner’s cabin features a modern, more open and ergonomic design with driver well-being and efficiency at the forefront. This means more comfort, less fatigue and higher productivity for the driver. Ergonomically designed seats with a wide range of adjustment, plus a steering column with adjustable length and angle, to suit a wide range of drivers and give the best driving position. Optional air suspension driver’s seat delivers even better comfort. Ample overhead storage bins and clear interior lighting with optional large fluorescent lamp.

I’ve been working as a driver at Nanon for about eight years now. I drive a Croner with an automatic gearbox. It’s comfortable and very easy to drive; the steering is light and responsive. The roomy cabin of Croner makes for a comfortable and enjoyable driving experience. I really like driving UD trucks. If one day I were to become a business owner myself, I would choose Croner for its fuel economy, safety, durability and power.

Easy to drive

Automatic transmission available for all models for improved ease of use, safety and less driver workload. It quickly and automatically chooses the right gear position at all times and the high torque engines make Croner a pleasure to drive.

“I have always wanted to be a truck driver since I was little. My father was a driver and my brother and all my family are professional drivers,” he says. “I’ve been driving for 12 years and for me UD makes nice trucks.” The rough conditions of the farm roads he tackles mean Croner is going to feel right at home, because it’s designed for emerging countries where conditions can be tough.

Instrument cluster

Croner has an easy-to-read instrument cluster that provides real time coaching using 5 driver-performance ratings. Its updated clear-cut design allows for more comfortability, efficiency and safety for drivers.

“Croner is very powerful.The brakes are great, when you put your foot on the pedal you know the truck is going to stop. And the steering is very soft. The cab is high and offers good vision and comfortable seating. This truck made me feel safe.”

- Piet Baloyi Fleet supervisor Vital Distribution Solution

Sleeper cab for the long haul

Rested drivers deliver better. A sleeper cab configuration is also available, with a single bunk bed for long-haul operations.

“This truck, and UD trucks in general, handle the extreme conditions here very well. The weather is extremely hot, yet we never had any issue with the engine over-heating. During the testing, this truck proved very helpful for our business. Croner consumes less fuel and also emits less harmful emissions. Our driver is very happy with the performance of the A/C. Croner is safe, reliable, and always offers a smooth drive – we are definitely planning on buying Croner or similar UD models in the future.”
