=== 2000s === [[File:000280 - Camión de Bomberos.jpg|thumb|Unimog 437.4 U 5000 (UHN) [[fire engine]] with [[rollover protection structure]]s]] [[File:Unimog U20 in Germany (cropped).JPG|left|thumb|Unimog U 20]] [[File:Brabus Unimog U500 Black Edition at the Mercedes-Benz World corr.jpg|thumb|Unimog U 500 Black Edition at the [[Mercedes-Benz World]]]] {{Main article|Unimog 405}} The all-new range of UGN models ([[Unimog 405|405 series]] U 300, U 400, U 500) was introduced in 2000. In August 2002 production ended in the Gaggenau plant after 51 years and more than 320,000 Unimogs being made, and started up in Mercedes-Benz's truck manufacturing plant in [[Wörth am Rhein]]. The U 3000, U 4000 and U 5000 models (UHN 437.4 series) were introduced at the same time.<ref name="DaimlerAG 2000s" /> At the [[Dubai Motor Show]] in December 2005, the "Unimog U 500 Black Edition" premiered as an offering to wealthy desert-dwellers. It is a similar luxury offering comparable to the Funmog. Starting from June 2006 the UGN series was produced with [[BlueTec]] technology so that the [[Euro IV]] emission requirements would be met. The design designations changed from 405.100 to 405.101. At the IAA 2006 commercial vehicle show in Hanover a new Unimog'' U 20 '' was presented, which was to be available at the end of 2007. The most striking feature is the [[cab over]] design with no vestigial front bonnet characteristic of the traditional Unimog. It has a total mass of 7,500 kg up to 8,500 kg. The underlying technology comes from the U 300. The driving cab is from the new Brazilian Accelo light truck (Caminhões Leves) series. The wheelbase is shortened to {{Convert|2700|mm|in|0|abbr=on}}.
