The eight-cylinder engine of 12,079 cc drives a vehicle with a gross vehicle weight of 22,000 kg and an unladen weight of 18,980 kg, leaving around 3,020 kg for load or bodywork. At 8,400 mm long, 2,600 mm wide and with a short 4,000 mm wheelbase on four wheels, the vehicle is built compact and massive, as needed for work in heavy terrain.
At 22,000 kg the MAC 06 S sits in EU class N3, covering trucks above 12 tonnes; unlike long-haul vehicles of this class, however, it is not built for long road journeys but for work off paved roads. The short wheelbase combined with the wide track improves manoeuvrability and stability on rough ground compared with a long road chassis.
For a used example of such a heavy off-road vehicle, the condition of the axles, differentials and off-road reduction gearing matters, since these components take heavy strain from constant work on unpaved ground. It is also worth checking the frame for cracks, the condition of the off-road tyre tread, and, depending on the body, the condition of any hydraulic components.
