Safety And Comfort Features In The Quester And Kuzer Cabin
Driving a truck requires concentration. This is because trucks usually travel long distances for various purposes such as delivering goods to support the owner's business.
Therefore, comfort and safety in the truck cabin are things that need to be considered by entrepreneurs so that their business continues to run smoothly.
Driving a truck also has big risks. Fortunately, all trucks and variants of UD Trucks take this into account.
One of them, the truck cabin from UD Trucks is equipped with air conditioning so that the driver is more comfortable and minimizes the pollution inhaled during the trip, as well as increasing safety because it can avoid crimes that can occur when the windows are open.
Meanwhile, for the safety of truck drivers, both of them have gone through a cabin crash test which will minimize the risk of injury if something unexpected happens during the trip.
So what are the safety and comfort features in the Quester and Kuzer cabins from UD Trucks?

In order not to get tired easily while driving, the driving position settings in the Quester and Kuzer cabins are also complete.
Starting from the soft seats, additional Quester special seat suspension, adjustable steering wheel position, to the suspension under the Quester and Kuzer cabin which adds to the comfort.
This allows a variety of truck driver postures to comfortably drive the Quester and Kuzer, even over long distances. The Quester is also equipped with a comfortable sleeping chair and ample storage space underneath.
Complete driving information
The Quester instrument panel has a 4.5-inch Multi Information Display (MID) screen. The MID screen, which is Quester's unique feature, displays various information, such as:
- Time and date.
- Odometer: displays the total mileage of the truck.
- Trip meter: displays the total distance traveled by the truck in a certain period.
- Condition of wind pressure: shows the capacity of wind pressure in the air tank.

Brakes full air brake
Driving a truck is not only about comfort but also about safety. Both Quester and Kuzer have adopted a full air brake braking system.
The advantage of full air brake is that if there is a leak in the braking system, the brakes will automatically lock to reduce the risk of the truck brake failing.
The brake pedal on a truck that uses full air brake is only a valve that opens air pressure to push the brake lining.
In terms of strength, this full air brake is very strong when compared to other types of truck brakes.
Because of the advantages of the full air brake, and the level of safety, it is the reason UD Trucks applies this type of brake in all its units such as the Quester and Kuzer.
It is clear that the Quester and Kuzer features pay attention to driver safety and comfort which will increase productivity.
