FOTON FLEXES ITS MUSCLES IN MOBILITY AND INNOVATION AT PIMS 2022
Consistent with its efforts to empower Filipino businesses, FOTON Motor Philippines, Inc. (FMPI) is unveiling its latest addition to its extensive range of powerful, reliable, and fuel-efficient trucks and commercial vehicles at the ongoing Philippine International Motor Show (PIMS), which opened yesterday and will run until Sunday, September 18 at the World Trade Center in Pasay City.
“It is perfect timing that the theme of this year’s Philippine International Motor Show is Innovation for Mobility + Humanity. This is exactly what we want to advocate in these challenging times— mobility for the betterment of humanity. And we cannot achieve that without true innovation—which is a hallmark of FOTON trucks and commercial vehicles,” says United Asia Automotive Group, Inc. (UAAGI) and FMPI President Erroll E. Dueñas.
Taking center stage at the FOTON booth at PIMS is the magnificent, new EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head. Equipped with a US-designed Cummins heavy-duty ISGE5-460 engine, the EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head can handle demanding loads and long-haul drives, which is crucial in the trucking business.
The EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head features a state-of-theart engine with a massive power output of 460 horsepower, Euro 5 at a very low 1,900 rpm; and a torque of 2,300 N-m at 1,100 rpm. Filipino businesses that run on a strict schedule, like deliveries of perishable goods, can trust the intercooler turbodiesel engine of the EST-A Tractor Head, which is designed to easily handle Philippine heat and traffic while remaining cool and overheat-free, saving countless hours of downtime.
The double-decker sleeping cabin of the EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head provides spaces for drivers to rest during tiring long-haul drives, preventing accidents and other unforeseen situations, while enhancing productivity.
Amid today’s rising fuel prices, the EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head consumes 15% less fuel than other conventional manual transmission tractor heads, generating huge savings on fuel costs in both the short and long term.
“The introduction of EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head to the Philippine market addresses the much-needed better mobility solutions, especially in the logistics industry. As one of the most trusted light and heavy truck brands, FOTON is the ideal choice for Filipino businesses, who can rely on FOTON’s EST-A Tractor Head and the rest of the FOTON truck lineup to empower and further bolster their business growth,” claims Duenas.
Coming only in cab chassis form, the EST-A 6x4 Tractor Head opens a wide range of possibilities for micro, small, medium, and large enterprises to customize it according to their business needs.
The other FOTON models to check out at PIMS include the popular and affordable Gratour MT Wingvan, the highly versatile Gratour MT Tool Truck, the fuel-efficient Transvan DO1, the luxuriously spacious Traveller XL, the capable Harabas TM300 Dropside, and the dependable Tornado M2.6C Ref Van.
“We are delighted to unveil and showcase FOTON’s latest line of trucks and commercial vehicles, which are all designed to match and exceed any mobility challenge with their worldclass engineering, technology, and performance,” says Dueñas.
