With this vehicle Iveco enters for the first time in the segment of light off-road volumes. The
road follows in the spirit of the Fiat Campagnola , a medium that
defined an era in Italy still lacks a modern road structure . La
Campagnola held particular significance for Italy after the war and the
reconstruction of the '50s, and is still present in the minds of
Italians . But
the Campagnola is not only that : in white livery , is inextricably
linked to the apparitions of a Pope who has opened a new way of
communicating with people. Also in white , but bearing the UN , has contributed to numerous international peacekeeping missions in all continents. Its
predecessor , the Massif bears the robust versatility and simplicity of
a vehicle designed for arduous missions , not to mention the economy.

Iveco - a full range of wheel-drive vehicles
Iveco Massif 4x4 competes in a small but important niche in the market of work vehicles wheel drive. Massif
is produced in collaboration with the Spanish manufacturer Santana ,
whose original vehicle was completely revised by Iveco experts with
considerable use of technology and solutions derived from the Daily. The
Massif is the true heir to the Daily 4x4 is well known for its use in
military and civilian VM 90 different armed forces and civil defense
corps of . It
shares the drive architecture with the transfer box flanged to the
gearbox to lower the maximum vehicle gauge , suitable for long and fast
moving road and off-road tough. Result of this extensive re-engineering is a suitable vehicle to take on missions as a true " off-road truck ." Iveco's
expertise in the 4x4 sector extends to the entire range of commercial
vehicles, from light to heavy - Daily, Eurocargo and Trakker - providing
an appropriate response to each type of mission and all working
conditions . These
wheel drive vehicles are remarkably sturdy , ideal to transport
personnel and equipment where needed, often in emergency conditions. The reliability of these vehicles is second to none in extreme situations under normal conditions. Driver comfort is not affected by the numerous demands of the driving off-road , not always fun as they might seem .
Excellent combination on the powertrain
Massif
using the known efficiency of engines FPT 3.0 HPI 146cv with maximum
torque of 350Nm and HPT 176 hp and maximum torque of 400 Nm , combined
with the six-speed gearbox ZF 6S400 . This
excellent combination of powertrain components is inspired by the Daily
range and is well proven in all aspects of reliability, performance and
fuel economy. The transfer box is coupled to the drive train , and through the propeller shafts , front and rear axles . It allows a transmission ratio of about 1:1, and inserting a moving vehicle all-wheel drive . With the low range only all- wheel drive. The front wheels can have an optional wheel hubs to further improve fuel consumption when driving on the road. The
parking brake is mounted on the flange of the rear axle output of the
transfer box , thus allowing a greater brake torque, since it is
multiplied by the ratio of transmission. This
aspect is extremely important because it means that Massif may be
retained in the parking brake on all gradients it able to cross .
Maximum comfort in the cabin
Inside
, the cabin is perfectly designed to give maximum comfort to the driver
and passengers, even in the turbulent off-road driving conditions for
which the Massif range is designed . The seat upholstery is available in fabric or leather, but for the missions "heavy duty" there is a robust synthetic material. The rubber mats are easy to clean the cabin . The instrumentation is appropriate for the needs of a real offroad vehicle . The control for changing gear and the transfer case is mounted on the floor , in reach of the driver . You can also ask for the version equipped with air conditioning system for added comfort .
