DAF FTS – the collective page of tractor units outside the named ranges, from the 95 series through CF85 to the XF105 and XF530, 340 to 375 kW, gross weights from 25 to 28 tonnes

This page gathers DAF tractor units carrying the FTS designation outside the named ranges. FTS, like FTG, denotes a tractor-unit version at DAF; the model list runs from the 95 series (95.360 to 95.480S) through the CF85 to the stronger XF variants XF105.510 and XF530Z. The type numbers roughly give the engine output in hp, S and Z mark equipment or chassis variants of the respective range.

The register lists here 18 versions with 340 to 375 kW, throughout six-cylinders of 12,580 to 12,902 cm³, unladen weights from 8,415 to 22,729 kg, gross weights from 25,000 to 28,000 kg, lengths from 6,550 to 7,700 mm and widths from 2,500 to 2,550 mm.

Like the FTG ranges, the FTS tractor units belong to the heavy long-haul segment in which DAF, alongside Volvo, Scania, Mercedes-Benz and MAN, ranks among the established brands; the stronger XF variants on this page cover the upper power range up to 375 kW and are used chiefly in international long-haul work with high annual mileage, where fuel consumption and driver comfort decide economic viability.

On the XF models, operating hours and the AdBlue system count, on all FTS tractor units clutch and gearbox condition, rust on the frame and fifth wheel, and brakes and air suspension, plus the service history of the turbocharger and injection system; parts run through the DAF dealer network.

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.
