Steyr – other truck models: the second collective page of series outside the named types, from light 4x2 to heavy 8x4 and 6x6 chassis, 110 to 191 kW, 5.3 to 12.0 litres displacement
This page gathers Steyr trucks the register could not assign to a named series – from the light two-axle chassis to the heavy three-axle tipper and all-wheel-drive vehicle. Steyr, the commercial-vehicle plant of Steyr-Daimler-Puch in the Upper Austrian town of Steyr, built trucks from the 1920s and was known above all for off-road, all-wheel-drive vehicles with the 4x4, 6x6 and 8x4 drive formulas for construction, forestry and the military; the truck division was absorbed into the MAN group in the 1990s. The type designations in the register follow a number-and-letter scheme: a power or weight class before the slash, a letter code for chassis and cab after it, and the drive formula at the end – for example 19S24/K38/4X4 or 27S42/P50/6X2 – supplemented by special versions such as the Steyr 680 and the 1291 series for heavy transport.

The register lists here 60 versions with four- to eight-cylinder engines, displacements of 5,320 to 11,964 cm³, unladen weights of 4,040 to 16,870 kg, gross weights of 4,870 to 35,000 kg, lengths of 4,710 to 9,870 mm and widths of 2,200 to 2,570 mm; a few outputs of 110 to 191 kW are also recorded.
Steyr trucks shaped Austrian and Alpine construction-site traffic and the armed forces of several countries for decades, where the all-wheel-drive models were valued for their climbing ability and ruggedness; individual type designations in this set recognisably come from Finnish vehicle registers.
On used examples, on the all-wheel-drive chassis the condition of the transfer case and axles, rust on the frame and load beds, on the tippers the hydraulic cylinders and side boards, and on older model years the availability of spare parts through specialist Steyr and MAN dealers all count.

What to check before buying
- Check the hour meter against the service records — a replaced instrument is the most common gap.
- Compare the data plate and chassis number with the papers.
- Check the weights in the papers against the figures here — attachments change them.
- Ask about parts availability for this build year — the running costs hang on it.
