Mercedes-Benz Atego – distribution truck since 1998 between 6.5 and 26 tonnes: type number built from weight class and horsepower, four-cylinder OM904 and six-cylinder OM906 engines, 90 to 220 kW
The Atego arrived in 1998 as the mid-range series between the light Vario and the heavy Actros, and has since covered the distribution and municipal-vehicle class from roughly 6.5 to 26 tonnes; facelifts followed in 2004 and 2013 with new cabs and emission stages. The four-digit type number follows Mercedes' factory standard: the first one or two digits give the weight class in tonnes, the last two roughly the output in horsepower divided by ten – a 1224 stands for about 12 t and roughly 240 hp. L marks, under factory naming, the standard chassis, AF four-wheel drive, NR a special-equipment version; the number after the slash (e.g. /42 or /4760) refers to wheelbase or frame length.

The register lists 293 versions with 90 to 220 kW output, displacements of 4,200 to 7,698 cm³ (four-cylinder OM904 and six-cylinder OM906) across 4 to 6 cylinders, unladen weights of 4,250 to 16,554 kg, gross weights of 6,500 to 26,500 kg and lengths of 5,750 to 11,970 mm.
The Atego is the classic distribution truck for city logistics, refrigerated transport, furniture and beverage delivery, and fire-service and municipal bodies; it competes with the MAN TGL/TGM, DAF LF, Volvo FL/FE and Iveco Eurocargo.
On used examples, check rust on the frame and body mounting points, condition of clutch and gearbox (Telligent shift on later models), brake system and ABS/ASR, sealing of the cab mounts, and operating hours on municipal and refrigerated bodies, which often run well ahead of pure mileage.
