Unimog is off-roader of the year 2020
The #Unimog is always there, where other vehicles have to admit defeat. Time and again that is the view of the readers of "Off Road" magazine, who voted it off-roader of the year in the "Special Vehicles" category for the sixteenth time in a row. The #Unimog was well ahead in first place with 54.7 percent of readers' votes. The extreme off-road #Unimog is highly popular with globetrotters as a basic vehicle for travelling on and off metalled roads, and in its lower-weight version with only 7.49 tonnes GVW it can also be driven with a car driver's licence (grade 3).
"We are delighted with this award even if we could not accept it personally due to the present situation. This is again a show of confidence in our #Unimog from the Off Road readership and we thank them immensely for this. Even after almost 75 years the #Unimog is the ultimate off-road vehicle and presently holds the world record for a wheeled vehicle driving at altitude. Many of its ingenious features such as the three-point mounting system for the living area body make it an ideal vehicle for expeditions beyond tarmacked roads, in difficult terrain or for journeys to altitudes just below 7000 m on the world's highest active volcano, as it recently proved," said Dr. Ralf Forcher, Head of #Unimog Sales and Marketing.
