Unimog - Die Baureihen 406 / 416 (1963-1989)
The Unimog phenomenon can be traced back to the 406 and 416 series. The models presented in 1963 helped the Unimog to achieve international success and developed into the most successful and most frequently built series in the Unimog range. They were built with numerous modifications until 1989, and the Unimog finally became a universal vehicle for which around 3 600 attachments are now available.

Alexander J. Kraus has been studying the Unimog phenomenon for years. He is now working on the history of this series with a comprehensive set of technical data, a keen eye for all kinds of special features and a wealth of illustrations.

NEW
For over 50 years, the distinctive, angular cab has shaped the appearance of the heavy Unimog series. While the basic shape of the cab has remained largely unchanged, the chassis and vehicle technology have undergone significant transformations over the past five decades.
The heavy Unimog models are ideal for demanding tasks in agriculture and forestry and are frequently used by the military, fire departments, and disaster relief organizations.

Alexander J. Kraus has been deeply involved with the Unimog for years and has now thoroughly documented the history of this heavy series. His book offers detailed technical data, attention on special features, and rich illustrations.
