Commander Series

ADVANCE®, A Terex Brand, a leading manufacturer of concrete mixer trucks, today announced the launch of its innovative Trainer Cab—the first purpose-built training solution to give instructors active control over vehicle operations during training sessions.

As the concrete delivery industry faces persistent workforce challenges, the ADVANCE® Trainer Cab addresses a critical gap in driver development by transforming the training experience from passive observation to active instruction.

While traditional trainer cabs simply add a passenger seat, the ADVANCE® Trainer Cab introduces integrated training technology designed to accelerate learning and improve safety outcomes:

• Trainer Control Panel: A dedicated monitoring system providing real-time visibility into all mixer operations
• Instructor Joystick Controls: Physical controls enabling trainers to demonstrate proper technique or intervene during critical moments
• Premium Comfort: Dual full-size air ride seats with industry-leading legroom for extended training sessions
• Multi-Purpose Design: Functions as a standard delivery vehicle when not in training mode, maximizing fleet utilization

The ADVANCE® Trainer Cab enables several training scenarios previously impossible in traditional setups:

• Guided practice with instructor-controlled demonstrations
• Safe intervention during challenging maneuvers or emergency situations
• Tactile learning through shared control exercises
• Immediate correction and reinforcement of proper techniques
