It captures a working transporter from Goodyear's European promotional and motorsport support fleet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mercedes-Benz Actros MP4 generation — internal series 963 — arrived in 2011 as the fourth iteration of Daimler's flagship heavy-duty range. Its StreamSpace cab was engineered specifically for aerodynamic efficiency, and the 1851 variant pairs that cab with the OM 471 inline-six diesel. Goodyear has used Actros MP4 1851 tractor units as branded transporters, deploying them across European motorsport and trade events in the two-tone blue corporate livery that identifies the tyre maker's support fleet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"actros-mp4-1851\"\u003eThe Actros MP4 1851: Fourth Generation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduced at the 2011 IAA Commercial Vehicles show, the MP4 generation brought a revised aerodynamic package — reshaped cab corners, roof deflectors, and side extenders — that reduced fuel consumption versus the outgoing MP3. The OM 471 engine family that powers the 1851 variant was developed in-house by Mercedes-Benz Trucks. This configuration has been a backbone of European long-haul and event logistics for over a decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"goodyear-livery-story\"\u003eA Working Transporter in Goodyear Corporate Blue\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGoodyear's commercial relationship with Mercedes-Benz Trucks has produced a fleet of visually consistent, two-tone blue-liveried Actros transporters used at motorsport and industry events across Europe. These vehicles carry demonstration and race cars to venues, functioning as mobile brand ambassadors. The 2023 specification represented here wears Goodyear's current corporate colour scheme: a clean, graphic application that maximises brand visibility in paddock and trade-show environments. No individual driver or race event is associated with this transporter; it is a logistics and promotional asset in active fleet use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 id=\"spark-model-143\"\u003eSpark Model's 1:43 Scale Model in Die-Cast\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpark Model, a specialist scale model manufacturer, has rendered this Actros MP4 1851 with the two-tone blue Goodyear livery as it appeared in 2023. The \u003cspan class=\"vr-scale\"\u003e1:43\u003c\/span\u003e scale model captures the StreamSpace cab profile and the corporate graphics of the real transporter. Spark Model has established a consistent track record producing commercial vehicles and racing transporters alongside its better-known single-seater and GT catalogue, and this release sits within that segment — die-cast construction, period-correct livery, 2023 specification.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SPARK MODEL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":60332350996864,"sku":"S8514","price":139.9,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/8828\/7104\/files\/vroomi-s8514-front34-v2.jpg?v=1793962794","url":"https:\/\/vroomimodels.com\/products\/mercedes-benz-actros-mp4-1851-truck-car-transporter-good-year-tires-2023-2-tone-blue","provider":"Vroomi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
