Mercedes-Benz Unimog: made for tough terrain.
Wherever optimum driving characteristics are required for firefighting in difficult terrain, the extremely agile off-road Unimog is in its element. This applies to water tenders fighting forest fires and logistics vehicles dealing with floods. And in addition, there is a wide variety of equipment variants and bodies that make the compact, robust Unimog a fully-fledged operational vehicle.

Tough.
Fighting forest fires on the Mediterranean, flood alarm on the Danube and Elbe, hurricanes and fierce autumn storms all over Europe, plus hail or earthquakes: the number of natural disasters is on the rise worldwide – accompanied by an increasing need for large-scale operations and special deployments by fire brigades and emergency services. Emergency forces are faced with greater and greater challenges – and so are their vehicles.
Drinking water Unimog transports mobile water purifying unit in hard-to-reach terrain.
No other vehicle is able to approach its performance potential under the worst imaginable conditions as the Unimog can: transporting crews, materials, tools and implements. Different power take-offs also allow the outfitting and operation of fire-fighting centrifugal pumps, winches, generators, hydraulic tippers or loading cranes. This makes the Unimog the best vehicle for fire-fighting.
