Road Tests & Reviews: Iveco Stralis AD


The Cursor 8 is available in the 360hp version before the Cursor 10 steps in with two ratings, followed by the Cursor 13 and three subsequent ratings.

The AD (Active Day) cab is a relatively rare sight: the fleet option for the 4x2 is the Active Time cab, and it’s worth noting that the two-axle tractor only gets the 12-speed automatic transmission. If required, the 16-speed manual, an option for 6x2, could well be rigged up to a 4x2.

Wherever it’s gone, the fleet truck has proved a hit; no frills, stress-free, automatic transmission, and only MAN has followed suit. However, the narrow cabin might prove a little claustrophobic for some and it’s compounded by a low riding height and tight floor space next to a high engine tunnel.

The Cursor 8 360 should only be taken for light artic work because its residuals will struggle and Iveco offers more than enough options to enable operators to get the right truck for the right job.

Pros:

  • Auto transmission
  • Driveability
  • Improved C10 and strong C13 engines

Cons:

  • Plastic interior
