Aumark EST-M
From Cartown, Palmerston North's premier Foton Truck dealership
The Truck For Every Job
A medium-duty truck that looks and feels like a heavy-duty truck, the Auman EST-M has a road presence that other trucks aspire to.
Some truck manufacturers think Cummins is optional: At Foton we know that Cummins is mandatory. The Auman EST-M is much more than the ‘Good looking truck with a Cummins engine’; it incorporates the latest design and technology, providing a distinct and refined driving experience.
Aumark EST-M Highlights
Exterior Design
This is a medium-duty truck with a significant on-road presence. Its striking exterior design is a combination of bold, purposeful and dynamic hard lines. Aerodynamic side-mounted aerofoils dominate the mid-front section of the cab. These not only provide a distinctive European look but have been designed to supply a more efficient airflow around the lower front of the Auman EST-M’s cab: design that combines aesthetics with function.
Interior Design
The Auman EST-M adopts a wrap-around type console. The spacious ergonomic design places the driver firmly at the command centre. Controls are positioned in a logical, easy and clean lay-out, designed to enhance the ‘man-machine’ interface, resulting in greater driving pleasure and control.
Powertrain
The Auman EST-M is powered by the latest generation Cummins ISF 4.5l engine, which provides 157kW of power and 760Nm of torque. Turbocharged and intercooled with a Bosch fuel injection system, this engine provides the Auman with a premium powertrain that’s not normally found on medium-duty trucks.
Enhanced Visibility
Six exterior mirrors ensure the driver has maximum visibility. The main mirrors are electronically controlled, allowing you to select the optimum position. Generous glass areas (including rear-view window) provide class-leading visibility for the driver.
ZF Steering
The ZF steering box ensures that the Auman EST-M provides an enhanced level of handling and feel for the driver, to a level not normally associated with competitor offerings.
Battery Isolating Switch
If ever required, the Battery Isolation Switch is designed to safely isolate the vehicle’s batteries and will ensure reliable performance when the vehicle is operating.
Reverse Camera
In addition to the 6-exterior mirrors, the Auman EST-M comes with a reverse camera as standard, offering another viewpoint for the driver when reversing.
Alloy Fuel & Air Tanks
Alloy Fuel & Air Tanks Lighter and corrosion resistant, aluminium is one of the primary materials used for weight reduction. Many truck manufacturers overlook the opportunity to reduce weight in the fuel tanks due to the higher price tag. At Foton, all our trucks come with alloy fuels tanks as standard specification. The Auman EST-M is also equipped with aluminium air tanks as standard.

Technology & Performance
Steering
Steering gears and pumps play a fundamental role in safety, so ZF’s rigorous quality and testing processes ensure that we never compromise on it. This is also the reason why truck steering systems require regular checks. The ZF steering box ensures that the Auman EST-M provides an enhanced level of handling and feel for the driver, to a level not normally associated with competitor offerings.
Intake System
The Auman EST-M comes standard with a Cummins integrated High Position Intake system and the Cummins AdBlue system.
Battery Isolating Switch
If ever required, the Battery Isolation Switch is designed to safely isolate the vehicle’s batteries and will ensure reliable performance when the vehicle is operating.
Reverse Camera
In addition to the 6-exterior mirrors, the Auman EST-M comes with a reverse camera as standard, offering another viewpoint for the driver when reversing.
LED Daytime Running Lights
LED Daytime Running Lights allow you to be more visible to other road users. The headlight height is also adjustable from the cab.
Alloy Fuel & Air Tanks
Lighter and corrosion resistant, aluminium is one of the primary materials used for weight reduction. Many truck manufacturers overlook the opportunity to reduce weight in the fuel tanks due to the higher price tag. At Foton, all our trucks come with alloy fuels tanks as standard specification. The Auman EST-M is also equipped with aluminium air tanks as standard. The customer benefit is a reduced weight and better protection from the elements than a comparable steel tank.
Comfort & Convenience
Steering Wheel Controls
At the driver’s fingertips are cruise control audio and Bluetooth controls, allowing the driver to remain focused on the road ahead.
Entry Step
The standard step downlighting makes night-time entry and exit much safer. Anti-slip tread plates ensure maximum grip for occupants in all weather and terrain conditions. Two wide and well-placed entry steps also ensure safe entry and exit. Foton Auman’s entry step is designed for drivers who spend a lot of time entering and exiting the vehicle. Importantly, drivers are provided with 3 points of contact when they enter or exit from the cab, to optimise driver safety.
90° Opening Doors
Working in harmony with the Auman’s illuminated entry steps are the 90⁰ opening doors which provide occupants with easy and safe ingress and egress from the cab.
Daily Checks
The Auman makes the daily check routine safe and easy for drivers. The Auman’s front mask can be opened with ease, making the daily check routine safe and easy for drivers.
Storage
Nearly everywhere the eye can see (above the windscreen, in the doors, in the dash, between the seats and behind the seats) are functional storage options. This allows you to keep the inside of the Auman neat and tidy, which provides fewer driver distractions and a safer environment.
Cab Tilt
The cab has a power tilt mechanism as standard, which allows effortless tilting of the cab and the 55⁰ tilt provides class leading access to the Cummins ISF engine.
