DAF's New Generation Truck Range
Posted: 08-Oct-2026 |
DAF Trucks Australia has the most significant overhaul of its product line in over 30 years. The New Generation DAF range is a complete ground-up redesign that comprises of four distinct models: the compact XB for urban distribution, the versatile XD for regional work, the hardworking XF for long-haul freight, and the premium Australian-made XG for high-productivity linehaul.
Starting with the entry point, the New Generation DAF XB is purpose-built for metropolitan environments. Powered by the PACCAR PX-7 engine delivering 290hp and 1,090Nm of torque, this nimble performer excels in city distribution, local government contracts, construction, and refuse operations where manoeuvrability counts.
The XD is where versatility meets capability. Equipped with the PACCAR MX-11 engine producing up to 450hp and 2,500Nm of torque, this mid-range workhorse adapts seamlessly across distribution, construction, tanker, and tipper applications. It's available in multiple rigid and prime mover configurations to suit virtually any vocational requirement.
Built for Australia's demanding long-haul routes, the New Generation XF pairs the PACCAR MX-13 engine (530hp, 2,700Nm) with exceptional fuel economy and comfort features that make extended stints behind the wheel genuinely bearable. With Day Cab, Sleeper Cab, and Sleeper High Cab options, the XF keeps your operators fresh and productive across every kilometre.
The flagship XG, developed and manufactured right here in Australia at PACCAR's Bayswater facility, represents the pinnacle of long-haul transport technology. Its 15-litre PACCAR PX-15 engine produces a hefty 660hp and 3,200Nm of torque, delivering the ultimate combination of efficiency, comfort, and performance for high-productivity linehaul operations.
The New Generation DAF range represents a genuine step forward in transport efficiency and driver satisfaction. Whether your operation demands the agility of the XB, the versatility of the XD, the proven reliability of the XF, or the premium performance of the Australian-made XG, DAF now has a purpose-built solution ready to work harder for your business.
As PACCAR Australia's Andrew Molnar puts it: the New Generation DAF cab proven in the XG is now shared across the XD and XF, so the same driver comfort, visibility, and fuel efficiency that's impressed XG operators now extends across the entire rangeāa significant advantage for Australian fleets.Contact your nearest DAF dealer to learn how the New Generation range can power your business success.
