In this issue we take a look at the renewed effort Paccar is making to make its DAF brand a sales winner in Australia with the new CF and XF models spearheading the push, we also drive new entrant Hyundai’s impressive Xcient heavy duty prime mover and road test Scania’s New Truck Gen XT as a tipper dog. In another road test we try Hino’s 700 series rigid, now equipped with the 16 speed TraXon AMT, on a run from Brisbane to Sydney.
In three interesting operator yarns we take a look at Uphire’s new Iveco Stralis XWay, Sydney Horse Transport’s Isuzu fleet and Hanson Cement’s uptake of new Hino 500 Standard Cabs, and how the standard safety package influenced that decision.
All that and a whole loot more this issue, so strap yourself in and enjoy the ride – a clean and green ride to a better future.
