The DAF XF is a range of trucks produced by the Dutch manufacturer DAF. between 1997 until 2002, it was known as the DAF 95XF. All right hand drive versions of the XF are assembled at Leyland Trucks in the UK. The XF 105 won the International Truck of the Year 2007 award. The truck features the 12.9 litre engine and ZF gearbox in both manual and automatic formats.
Military Variant
The military application of the DAF XF 95 series is called DAF YTZ95.530.
The Canadian Forces Land Force Command uses the XF95 Tropco Tractor for their tank transport platform leased from the Dutch Army.
2013 model
in September 2012, DAF introduced its new flagship Euro 6 XF model at the IAA Commercial Vehicles Show in Hanover, Germany. The new XF will enter production in Spring 2013. DAF's new XF flagship model has an elegant appearance, thanks to its redesigned aerodynamic exterior with a smooth, attractive cab. The grille with modern design accents makes a significant contribution to optimizing air flows for aerodynamics and engine cooling. The bumper, made from galvanized steel to enhance durability, has also been designed contributing to the truck's aerodynamics and engine cooling. There are also new headlight units with LED lighting, standard daytime running lights (LED) and optional cornering lights. All this is great, but DAF XF looks like... some Asian truck.
Building on the excellent reputation for reliability and efficiency, the PACCAR MX 12.9L engine has earned in Europe and North America, DAF has developed a new generation of Euro 6 engines. The PACCAR MX-13 engine features state-of-the-art technologies and proven technical innovations. The use of common rail fuel injection technology, a variable geometry turbo, and efficient exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) ensures excellent fuel economy and vehicle reliability. The advanced exhaust gas after treatment system contains a DeNOx catalytic converter and active soot filter (Diesel Particulate Filter) and was developed to achieve maximum efficiency. Use of passive regeneration is optimized during the engines operating cycle to further improve fuel efficiency.
