Iveco Stralis 480 Used Trucks - Current Offers for Sale

Powertrain and Emissions Architecture

The Iveco STRALIS 480 is defined by its use of FPT Cursor engines, transitioning from the robust 12.9L Cursor 13 (Euro 5) with mechanical unit injectors to the advanced 11.1L Cursor 11 (Euro 6) with electronic high-pressure Common Rail. The latter delivers 480 hp and 2300 Nm, achieving peak torque at 970 rpm. Iveco's HI-eSCR emissions system—a pure SCR solution—eliminates forced DPF regeneration, supporting class-leading 150,000 km oil change intervals. XP variants introduced "Smart EGR," circulating 8% exhaust gas not for NOx control, but to advance injection timing for enhanced fuel efficiency, maintaining minimal soot and optimal SCR operation.

Transmission and Driveline Innovations

Early STRALIS 480 models featured ZF EuroTronic AMT in 12- or 16-speed; Hi-Way and XP switched to the Hi-Tronix 12-speed AMT, based on ZF TraXon, offering 10% faster shifts, creeping mode, and predictive HI-CRUISE with topographical data, eco-roll, and preemptive downshifting. An ultra-long 2.47:1 Meritor rear axle and low rolling resistance tires drove substantial reductions in fuel consumption. The X-WAY introduced the HI-TRACTION hydraulic front-drive system for temporary AWD, seamlessly engaging up to 25 km/h on unstable terrain while minimizing weight and drag.

Cab, Chassis, and Configuration Flexibility

Cab options include the AS Hi-Way (2500 mm wide, 1989 mm internal height, orthopedic HI-COMFORT bed, 50L fridge), AT Hi-Road (2300 mm, high/low roof), and AD Hi-Street (2300 mm, day cab). The chassis features double-bottleneck C-section rails in 6.7 mm (standard) or 7.7 mm (X-WAY/off-road), with wheelbases from 3800–6700 mm. Modular configurations cover 4x2/6x2/6x4 tractor, as well as 4x2, 6x2, 6x4, and 8x4 rigid, supporting GVM up to 36 t and GCM to 90 t. Suspension choices span parabolic leaf on front axles to ECAS-managed full air suspension on rear, allowing manual height adjustment and EBS integration.

Specialized Variants and Digital Systems

The XP "TCO2 Champion" integrates decoupled Smart Auxiliaries, Michelin X Line tires, and HI-MUX electronics. The X-WAY is optimized for construction logistics, offering ON, ON+, and OFF chassis setups, multi-piece steel bumpers, and PTOs up to 2300 Nm. All models feature the IVECONNECT system and Driving Style Evaluation (DSE) for real-time eco-driving feedback.
