Discover the New Generation DAF XF for long-distance and interstate operations
Leading transport efficiency
The New Generation DAF XF is purpose-built for Australia’s demanding interstate and long-distance operations delivering exceptional fuel efficiency, superior driver comfort, and advanced safety systems to help operators maximise productivity on every journey.
ENGINEERED FOR MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE
The New Generation DAF XF is engineered for maximum uptime and low total cost of ownership, delivering the reliability and performance Australian transport businesses depend on. From highly efficient PACCAR powertrains and advanced driver assistance systems to outstanding cab comfort and connected vehicle technologies, the XF helps you drive efficiency, safety, and profitability across every kilometre.
Supported by DAF’s nationwide dealer network and expert technicians, the XF provides the confidence to keep your business moving, day after day.
The power of efficiency
In Australia, every kilometre counts. That’s why the 70-tonne GCM rated New Generation DAF XF is engineered to maximise the return on every journey. Built on a proven foundation of transport efficiency, it combines advanced aerodynamics, optimised drivelines and the PACCAR MX-13 engine to deliver outstanding fuel economy and lower emissions. With service intervals of up to 200,000 kilometres and renowned DAF reliability, the XF keeps your fleet on the road longer, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership.
True efficiency comes from refining every detail. From grille to rear axle, the DAF XF is engineered for performance and endurance in Australian conditions. Higher torque at lower revs, an efficient MX-13 engine and intelligent electronics work together to reduce fuel use. The result is measurable fuel savings, a lower cost per kilometre and greater productivity for your business.
The power of safety
The DAF XF is engineered to deliver outstanding safety for drivers, cargo and other road users, helping Australian operators move with confidence in every environment. Combining a strong, energy absorbing cab structure with advanced technologies such as the DAF Digital Vision System, Vehicle Stability Control and Advanced Emergency Braking, the XF actively works to prevent incidents before they occur.
Designed to reduce blind spots, improve visibility and support driver awareness, it enhances control on both open highways and busy urban roads. The result is greater peace of mind, reduced accident-related costs and maximised uptime, protecting your people, your load and your business on every journey.
The power of comfort
Because every great journey starts with the driver, the New Generation DAF XF has been designed to make life on the road more comfortable, productive and rewarding. Its spacious cab, premium interior and intelligent driver focused technologies create an environment that feels less like a workplace and more like a home away from home. From interstate freight runs to Australia’s longest transport routes, the XF delivers a smooth, quiet and refined driving experience that helps reduce fatigue and keep drivers performing at their best.
An air suspended cab, optimised chassis and advanced climate control system work together to create a comfortable environment throughout the day, while the fully digital dashboard keeps essential information clearly in view. With excellent visibility, intuitive controls, generous storage and one of the most comfortable bunk areas in its class, the XF provides the ideal space to work, rest and recharge between journeys.
Driveline
The New Generation DAF XF delivers outstanding efficiency through its PACCAR MX-13 multi-torque 390 kW (530 hp) engine, TraXon 16-speed automated transmission and highly efficient driveline. High torque at low engine speeds delivers strong performance while helping reduce fuel consumption across a wide range of long-haul applications.
Advanced engine technologies, smart gear shift strategies and Eco Mode work together to maximise fuel economy, lower emissions and reduce operating costs, delivering greater return on every kilometre.
Chassis
The DAF XF’s well-thought-out chassis is made from high-quality steel so it’s both light and strong. The Stabilink rear axle suspension ensures optimal roll stability, the highest payloads and superb handling. The highly flexible chassis layout allows a wide range of body variations, making the DAF XF extremely friendly to bodybuilders.
