Victory is standard: the Unimog from Mercedes-Benz

Stuttgart/Munich - The readers of the specialist magazine 'Off Road' voted the Unimog 'Off-Road Vehicle of the Year' with 54.9 percent of the votes - that's even a few more than last year. Thus the 'Universal-Motorgerät' won first place in the special vehicles category for the 17th time in a row. The extreme off-road Unimog is highly popular with globetrotters as a basic vehicle for travelling on and off paved roads, and in its lower-weight version with only 7.49 tonnes GVW it can also be driven with a passenger car driver's licence (Grade 3).

39,211 votes were received for the poll with readers voting for 251 vehicles in 13 categories. The Off Road Award has a long tradition: it is 39 years since the readers of the Munich-based 'Off Road' magazine first voted for the most popular off-road vehicle (1982).
