The three high-performance construction specialists go by the names Unimog, Zetros and Econic. The Unimog with its unsurpassed off-road capabilities is a versatile construction machine. The all-wheel-drive U 216 to U 530 models are highly specialized equipment carriers and can be combined with a wide variety of attachments and implements for all conceivable applications. The Unimog U 4023 and U 5023 models, meanwhile, are highly capable off-road professionals and can transport tools, equipment, materials and crew to any operational site.

The Mercedes-Benz Zetros, a robust long-bonnet truck with all-wheel drive technology is suited to the toughest of off-road missions. Available with either two or three axles, this truck combines extreme off-road capability, sturdy technology and the load-bearing capacity of a regular truck. Accordingly, this model is used in open-cast mining, underground mining or other tough applications.

The Mercedes-Benz Econic is a professional in inner cities and can also be found in the construction industry in some countries. The basis of the vehicle is its low-positioned "DirectVision" cab with low access, low seating position and panoramic glazing – and thus optimum visibility of other road users such as pedestrians and cyclists. For the Econic, Brake Assist with pedestrian recognition, Lane Keeping Assist, cruise control and Sideguard Assist are all available.
