Additional Notes
- The Mercedes-Benz eActros 983 (EU) power steering system is identified across all listed configurations as electro-hydraulic power steering (EHPS), a system type that uses an electric motor to drive a hydraulic pump rather than relying on a conventional engine-driven pump.
- Each axle position carries a fluid capacity of 4.5 liters, meaning a full two-axle service fill totals 9.0 liters per vehicle across the eActros 300, 400, and 600 variants.
- The per-axle capacity of 4.5 liters is consistent across all three variants, indicating no variation in steering reservoir sizing between the 300, 400, and 600 configurations despite differences in the vehicle designations.
- Capacity figures are listed separately for Axle 1 and Axle 2, reflecting that the EHPS system on the eActros architecture treats each axle as a discrete hydraulic circuit with its own fluid volume.
- All specifications are listed under normal use conditions, which in service interval contexts generally refers to standard operating environments as opposed to severe or extended-duty cycles.
- The eActros 600 carries a starting year of 2023, placing its introduction two years after the eActros 300 and 400, both of which share a starting year of 2021.
