Mercedes 309 LED Truck

Singapore's dual-purpose LED advertising truck

One vehicle, two jobs. On the right side, a 2m × 1m outdoor-grade LED video wall turns heads at 5,000 nits — bright enough to read in direct midday Singapore sun. On the left, a large opening that works as an entrance, a shop frontage, or a loading bay — so the same truck runs your roadshow, product launch, or sampling activation and broadcasts your campaign to everyone who walks past.

Most operators make you choose: an LED billboard truck or an open-side roadshow truck. This is both.

Why the screen actually works outdoors (the specs competitors don’t publish)

5,000 nits brightness — daylight-readable in direct sun. Industry benchmarks put 5,000+ nits at the top of the “excellent visibility” band and recommend it as the minimum for equatorial-latitude outdoor advertising (LEGIDATECH, MediaSignage).
P2.97 fine pixel pitch — sharp at street level and pedestrian distance (optimal ~2.4–3m viewing), not a coarse highway-only screen (LED Market USA).
IP65-rated — fully dust-tight and rain-jet resistant. Built for Singapore’s tropical downpours, not just light splashes (Marvel Technology).
≥3,840 Hz refresh — flicker-free on camera, so it films cleanly for social and event recaps.
160° / 160° viewing angle — legible from the pavement, not just head-on.

What you can run on it

Outdoor advertising displays at high-footfall sites (malls, CBD forecourts, event precincts)
Product launches & roadshows (LED wall for the reveal, open side for the booth/stage)
Brand activations & sampling (walk-up shopfront + live content)
Live event feeds, countdowns, social walls (HDMI / SDI / VGA / DVI inputs)

Testimonial

“In Singapore’s year-round heat, the fully air-conditioned Mercedes 709 Event Bus was a game-changer for our corporate activation — guest dwell time and brand recall jumped noticeably versus an open booth. Supericecreamtruck configured it as a curated brand gallery and wrapped it entirely in our identity. It’s the premium mobile brand experience vehicle MNCs and agencies in Singapore should be using.”

FAQ

Is it a moving billboard or a stationary display?

Stationary. This is a fixed-installation LED platform: the vehicle is transported to your site, positioned, and powered from a standard shore-power supply for the duration of your activation. Because it isn’t driven around as a moving advertisement, it runs as a stable, all-day display and sidesteps moving-vehicle advertising rules.

Do I need a permit to set up an LED display truck at an event venue?

Often yes — and it depends on the venue. Venue activations typically need an SCDF Temporary Change of Use permit (via GoBusiness), plus any venue-specific licences; some venues have their own rules (URA, for instance, does not support LED-screen/stage event trucks at Marina Bay) (URA). We handle these for you.

How bright does an LED truck screen need to be to be visible in daylight?

Outdoor screens need roughly 4,000–5,000+ nits for direct-sun visibility; 5,000–6,000+ is recommended for equatorial regions like Singapore. Our wall runs at 5,000 nits (LEGIDATECH).

What's the difference between a mobile billboard and an LED truck?

A traditional mobile billboard shows a static printed or backlit panel; an LED truck carries a live digital video wall you can update instantly with motion, multiple campaigns, or live feeds. Ours is a full LED video wall, not a static panel.

Can one truck be used for both advertising and a roadshow or product launch?

Yes — that’s the point of this vehicle. The LED wall handles the advertising/reveal; the large opening on the other side becomes your entrance, shopfront, or stage for the activation. One booking, both functions.

Can the LED screen be used in the rain?

Yes. The wall is IP65-rated — dust-tight and resistant to water jets from any direction — so it runs through typical Singapore rain (Marvel Technology).

How is it powered on site?

Through a standard shore-power connection — the truck has a built-in weatherproof CEE/IEC 60309 16A 220–240V inlet, so it plugs into normal event power. A built-in 1 HP air-conditioning unit keeps both the LED electronics and on-stand staff cool through a full Singapore activation day.

What size and format should our artwork be?

Supply artwork at 672 × 336 pixels (a 2:1 landscape ratio) to match the wall exactly. We accept static images (JPG/PNG) and video (MP4), and can also take live feeds via HDMI on site. Our team can rescale or reformat existing campaign assets to fit if you don’t have this exact size.
