The Unimog 2010 is a vehicle of the Unimog series made by German manufacturer Daimler-Benz from June 1951 to August 1953 in the Mercedes-Benz Gaggenau plant. It is a technical copy of its predecessor, the Unimog 70200. Despite being sold by Mercedes-Benz dealerships, the Unimog 2010 did not feature the brand's „Mercedes-star“ emblem. Instead, it was solely sold under the Unimog brand, having the ox-head-Unimog emblem on the bonnet;[1] only vehicles purchased by the Swiss army lack the Unimog emblem and have no branding at all (as seen on the right).[2] In total, 5,846 units were produced, and five different models were available.[3] All Unimog 2010 vehicles have a wheelbase of 1,720 mm (67+3⁄4 in) and a canvas roof; a closed cab was not available as a factory option. The name „Unimog 2010“ originates from the German supply firm Erhard & Söhne, which manufactured the Unimog prototypes – all technical drawings, parts and tools of that firm had the part number 2010, which is said to be the reason why Daimler-Benz simply named the Unimog 2010.[3] The Unimog 2010 was succeeded by the Unimog 401 in 1953.[1]
