The technology of the ME versions was extensively utilized in the M40 series models introduced in spring 2009. However, the round design, curved-glass cabin, and long-stroke 4-cylinder four-valve engines were new. The M6040 and M7040 had 5 basic gears, that is, a total of 15+15 gears, while the larger ones had 6 basic gears, i.e., 18+18. The reversing gearbox was hydraulic. The larger models could be equipped with an optional hydraulic quick shift, resulting in 36+36 gears. The front axle now had an automatic limited-slip differential. The lifting capacity was significantly increased to 4.1 tons in the larger models. Power take-off was engaged electro-hydraulically. The lifting device was always mechanical. Alongside the standard models, there were both low and narrow special versions that remained in production longer than the standard models.
