The Shogun is powered by the recently developed Daimler OM470 11-litre in-line six-cylinder common rail engine which features a special pressure booster and an asymmetric turbocharger that helps deliver more pulling power lower in the rev range. A key feature of the power unit is a potent decompression engine brake with up to 340kW of force.
The Shogun features the latest electronic safety systems and comfort features including adaptive cruise control (Proximity Control Assist) with stop and go function for heavy traffic, Advanced Emergency Braking, which can even initiate braking for moving pedestrians, Lane Departure Warning and Electronic Stability Control.
