What started small has grown into one of the world's leading truck manufacturers, with decades of innovation, quality and transport efficiency behind every vehicle.
Today, DAF is part of the PACCAR family alongside Kenworth and Peterbilt, bringing world-class engineering to New Zealand — backed locally by Southpac Trucks from Cape to the Bluff.

Every New Generation DAF sold in New Zealand - XF, XG and XG+ runs the same proven PACCAR MX engine, tuned for efficiency and low running costs rather than a long options list. It's paired with a quiet, comfortable cab designed for long days behind the wheel.
The three models share the same engine, chassis and safety features. The difference is cab size: the XF offers a 10.5m³ workspace, the XG steps up to 12m³, and the XG+ tops the range with a raised roofline and 12.5m³ of space for drivers who live on the road.
