Iveco AS260SY – the Stralis tractor unit with Active Space cab: Cursor 13 engine, 338 to 419 kW, 26 to 37-tonne gross vehicle weight
The Iveco AS260SY belongs to the Stralis range, which Iveco built from 2002 to 2019 as a heavy long-haul vehicle before it was replaced by the S-Way. In Iveco's chassis code, AS denotes the Active Space cab, the tallest and roomiest cab version in the range; 260 states the type-approval class as a tractor unit, SY the suspension version. The range is powered by the Iveco Cursor 13 straight-six engine of up to 12.9 litres. Iveco was formed in 1975 from the merger of the commercial vehicle divisions of Fiat, OM, Lancia and Unic; the name Stralis derives from the Latin word for flash, meant to underline the brand's modernisation.

The register lists 12 versions here with 338 to 419 kW from six-cylinder engines of 11,120 to 12,937 cc, kerb weights of 10,075 to 19,605 kg, gross vehicle weights of 26,000 to 37,000 kg, lengths of 8,950 to 11,971 mm and widths of 2,550 to 2,600 mm.
As a long-haul tractor unit, the Stralis AS260 competed with the Volvo FH, the Scania R-series and the Mercedes-Benz Actros, and was one of the best-selling heavy tractor units in Europe during its decade. Over its production run the Stralis passed through several emissions stages from Euro 3 to Euro 6, meaning used AS260SY examples carry different exhaust aftertreatment systems.
On a used Stralis tractor in this power class, key points are mileage and the service history of the Cursor 13 engine, the condition of the AdBlue system and exhaust aftertreatment, wear on the clutch and fifth wheel, and corrosion on the frame and mounted equipment; parts are readily available through Iveco's dense dealer network.
