Used DAF LF290 Specifications Overview
Powertrain and Transmission
The DAF LF290 is powered by the PACCAR PX-7, a 6.7L inline-six engine delivering 212 kW (290 hp) and 1,100 Nm of torque. Post-2017 models feature recalibrated engine mapping for improved low-end torque and optimized fuel consumption. From late 2022, the engine utilized a Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) block for increased strength and reduced weight. Transmission options include 6- or 9-speed manuals, ZF AS Tronic AMTs (6- or 12-speed), fully automatic Allison transmissions for specialist vocational use, and, from 2022, the ZF PowerLine 8-speed full automatic with hydro-dynamic torque converter and double overdrive. The PowerLine supports rapid, seamless shifting and features "urge-to-move" functionality for precise low-speed maneuvering.
Chassis, Configuration, and Payload
LF290 is available predominantly as a 4x2 rigid in 16t, 18t, and 19t GVW classes, with maximum payloads over 10,000 kg fully bodied. 6x2 rigorously engineered variants (FAP, FAS, FAT, FAG) offer GVMs up to 26,000 kg and rear bogie capacities to 20,000 kg. Wheelbases range from 3.05 m up to 6.90 m, allowing significant flexibility for bodybuilders and maximum body lengths exceeding 9 m. Factory fuel tank options reach 1,240 L. Front suspension uses parabolic leaf springs; rear suspension is typically ECAS with optional steel leaf for severe-duty use. Single-reduction drive axles and selectable diff-locks are available for traction-critical operations.
Cab Design and Ergonomics
The LF290 features a narrow 2,130 mm cab, available in Day, Extended Day, or Sleeper variants. The Sleeper cab fits a single 200 cm bunk and auxiliary night heater. Ergonomic focus includes air-suspended Isringhausen seats, step-access cab, and a digital 5" TFT with Driver Performance Assistant. Exterior updates add chrome grille accents, aerodynamic roof spoilers, and side collars, with an optional lower kerb-view window for enhanced direct vision compliance.
Operational Technology and Safety
LF290 models equipped with rear air suspension include AEBS-3, FCW, ACC, LDWS, and VSC. Maintains a standard exhaust brake for extended brake life. DAF Connect telematics allows real-time fleet management and predictive maintenance. The aftertreatment system supports HVO and GTL fuels without modification, enabling up to 90% CO2 reduction on HVO. Routine service intervals reach 60,000 km; DPF service intervals up to 320,000 km.
