ABCDOverhang angle
The values shown indicate the maximum incline of an embankment, up which
the vehicle can drive at a slow speed without collision of the bumper or under-
body.
The values listed correspond to the maximum axle load, front or back.
Ramp angle
The angle indication determines the angle at which you can drive the vehicle
over a ramp, at a slow speed, without the under body of the vehicle touching
the ramp edge.
Pitch angle / climbing ability
The specification to which the vehicle can drive up a slope on its own (depend-
ing inter alia on the road surface and engine power).
The height gained over a distance of 100 m (slope) is specified in percent or degrees.EngineTransmissionFront overhang angle (°)Rear overhang angle (°)Ramp angle (°)Slope angle (°) / climbing ability (%)
