Productivity

Need for greater payload

Maximizing your resources equates to ensuring productivity and efficiency on every transport assignment. Every truck in your fleet should operate at its capacity. Quester's optimized tare weight and driveline have significantly reduced the truck’s weight, allowing you to transport more on every trip.

Optimized tare weight

Transport more with Quester. When combined with a powerful driveline, lighter tare weight offers the possibility to transport more cargo on longer distances.

Optimized driveline and robust manual transmission

The 8-liter and 11-liter engines are powered by UD Trucks’ advanced technology and combine reliability with top class performance. Delivering high torque from low revs with flat torque curves.

Quester models come with a choice of reliable and durable, 6-speed, 9-speed and 12-speed manual transmission, that are able to cope with the toughest demands in various operation conditions.

ESCOT - automated manual transmission

With key components made of aluminium, ESCOT automated manual transmission contributes to Quester's low weight for higher payload. By choosing the right gear, ESCOT delivers efficient, productive driving with high average speeds and low operating costs.

The PWR+ mode on ESCOT makes construction assignments productive with increased power and high running performance in tough conditions. It features a rock loose mode for quick escape when stuck in slippery and muddy conditions.

Allison – automatic transmission

Whether servicing city distribution, waste management or out on the construction site, Quester featuring Allison is a perfect solution for all start-stop operations, with its torque converter. Drivers at all levels experience less fatigue, and can focus on the road at all times and during any maneuver. No clutch also means lower maintenance costs.

Available on Quester:
Allison 3000/3200 for GH8E
Allison 4000 for GH11E

Flexible cab layout

The largest cab in UD Trucks' history is perfect for long haul. Walk-through with bunk beds and plenty of storage, the largest in class high roof cab also features a clear instrument panel where everything is within easy reach. More productive assignments are the result.

More ratios with new axle

Additional ratios on the new single reduction axles allow better flexibility in optimizing the driveline for your application.

Body Builder Module (BBM)

BBM offers access to various vehicle signals and functions that are needed by the superstructure control systems for some specialized applications.

Class-leading axle loads

Quester tops the class in terms of front and rear
axle loads. Both axles are built extra tough to enable high loads.

Transmission retarder

This helps Quester improve productivity by making journeys faster. The retarder is coordinated with UD Trucks’ Extra Engine Brake and maintains a steady speed while travelling downhill without using service brakes.
