Mercedes-Benz Type L 4500 A (L 303)

Contrary to the L 3000, the Mercedes-Benz type L 4500 worked in the best way on all fronts. Altogether 2,711 exemplars of the all-wheel driven variant were made. 308 chassis were used for production of fire brigade vehicles for air defence units. The illustrated platform lorry was modified with a closed box body.

There was a standardised gechlossener Aufbau - closed superstructure - for the 4.5 ton lorries. The illustrated L 4500 A photographed during a rail transport to the east front had such a closed superstructure.

Due to the powerful 112 HP, 7.3 litres diesel engine, the L 4500 A could also be used as carrier for snow ploughs.

Some of the Mercedes-Benz type L 4500 A were equipped for rail operation. In this photo altogether nine of such vehicles can be seen.
