The diesel variant of the L 5 5-tonne truck fitted with the six-cylinder OM 5 engine has its premiere and is soon to become the world's first diesel truck from large-scale production. The development of the OM 5 engine had been given the green light following the decision by the Daimler-Benz community of interest to pursue the pre-chamber principle developed by Benz.
