Unimog Other models

The register lists 21 versions with four- and six-cylinder engines from 1,700 to 2,404 cm³, kerb weights from 1,780 to 3,370 kg, gross vehicle weights from 2,323 to 3,500 kg and widths from 1,620 to 2,150 mm; length is recorded at around 3,400 mm.

These early Unimog ranges served agriculture, forestry, the Bundeswehr and municipalities alike, establishing the Unimog's reputation as a versatile implement carrier that persists to this day. The S404 and S1404 variants, with reinforced chassis and higher payload, were additionally aimed at the military and at export markets demanding strong off-road ability.

Buying one of these classic Unimogs used, what matters is the condition and sealing of the portal axles, the function of the power take-offs and inter-axle differential locks, and corrosion on the chassis frame. On the 404's six-cylinder petrol engine, a compression check is worthwhile; on the diesel, check the injection pump; wear and attachment parts are available through the Mercedes-Benz parts network and specialist Unimog workshops.
