Foton Group Annual Meeting, many vehicle models were exhibited. Among them, the Auman EST was probably the most eye - catching.
The Auman EST - A on - site at the event was equipped with a "Cummins X12 - 510 engine + ZF automatic transmission (AMT)". This is the high - end long - distance logistics vehicle configuration currently promoted by Foton Daimler. In addition, its other configurations are also quite high - end, especially the new interior that's really eye - catching. Let's take a detailed look.
The golden logo is a feature of Auman's 2.0 - version Super Truck. There's a backlight behind the logo, which makes it look really cool and eye - catching when the backlight is turned on at night. Auman can be regarded as a representative among domestic trucks that pay attention to appearance.
The Auman EST - A has a high - roof flat - floor cab in the true sense. The space is as large as that of European flagship heavy - duty trucks. Of course, we all know that this is the result of absorbing the design and technology of Mercedes - Benz trucks, which are also from the Daimler Group.
The flat floor looks very comfortable. Coupled with the space - maximizing design, two people can move around freely in the cab.
The interior layout design of the 2019 model hasn't changed much, but the materials used are better, and a new color scheme has been adopted. The center console features a stable dark color, while the seats and berths are in a blue - and - white color combination, looking quite elegant.
The materials used in the interior are definitely praise - worthy. For example, the steering wheel is wrapped with stitched leather, which looks high - class, is anti - slip, and has a good feel.
The Mercedes - Benz - style center console design is not only good - looking but also user - friendly. The buttons are clearly divided by function, allowing even a driver new to this vehicle to get started quickly.
The layout of the gear lever and hand - control valve in the 2019 Auman automatic - transmission new model has been redesigned to minimize space occupation. A passageway between the driver's seat and the middle floor has been left for easy access, making it more user - friendly.
The entire shift control mechanism has also been replaced. The gear - lever style looks better, and its operation method is different from before. As you can see, it's easy to use at first glance.
There's an in - car refrigerator located in the storage compartment at the bottom of the berth, which doesn't take up extra space when stored.
On one side of the berth, there are storage compartments, a reading light, and a USB charging port, which is very considerate for modern people's habit of using mobile phones.
There's a camera under the rear - view mirror for visual monitoring and driving assistance. In addition, there are also a lane - departure warning system, a driver fatigue monitoring system, and a large central control screen. There are really a lot of configurations.
