The Freightliner Business Class M2 is a model range of medium-duty trucks produced by Freightliner since the 2003 model year. The first generation of the Business Class developed entirely by Freightliner, the M2 replaced the FL-Series introduced in 1991.[2] Serving as a Class 5-Class 8 product range, the M2 competes primarily against the International MV (previously the International DuraStar) and the Ford F-650/F-750 Super Duty.
Distinguished by its jellybean-shaped headlamps, large windshield, and nearly vertical grille, the M2 is designed for a wide variety of applications, encompassing multiple design configurations. In addition to cargo box trucks, flatbed trucks, and towing vehicles, the model family supports a wide variety of emergency, utility, and vocational uses, with multiple cab, chassis, and axle configurations. The M2 is also used by bus manufacturers, with both cowled-chassis and cutaway-cab configurations supporting body assemblies.
The M2 has been produced by Freightliner in its Mount Holly, North Carolina since June 2002;[3] for Latin American markets, Freightliner has assembled the M2 in Mexico in Santiago Tianguistenco since 2003.[4] The second generation of the M2 (the M2 Plus) is entering production in late 2023.[5]
