ISUZU Philippines Corp. (IPC) recently handed over 25 units of Traviz light-duty trucks to the progressive municipality of Tiaong in Quezon Province.
The fleet of Isuzu light-duty trucks are fitted with emergency response-type utility van body to provide efficient and effective multi-purpose duties for the municipality’s citizens.
In a simple turnover ceremony held at Tiaong municipal grounds, none other Mayor William Razon, together with Councilor JP Preza and the 25 Barangay Captains of the municipality, graced the event. IPC and Isuzu Pagbilao dealership executives were also present.
According to IPC Division Head for Sales Joseph Bautista, through the Traviz, the company continues its strong partnership with various Philippine society sectors, especially in public service, to fulfill its commitment to be “Your Responsible Partner.” “We are confident that these Isuzu Traviz lightweight trucks will perform even beyond expectations for the different barangays here in Tiaong, and you can count on its durability and reliability that your municipality made a very wise investment in purchasing these Isuzu trucks—because an Isuzu truck really goes a long way,” he said.
The Isuzu Traviz is powered by the Euro 4-rated 4JA1 2.5-liter Direct Injection Common Rail Blue Power diesel engine mated to a five-speed manual transmission. It can carry up to 1.6 tons of payload—the heaviest in the lightweight truck category. The Traviz offers numerous advantages such as a spacious interior cabin with better legroom, a more ergonomic, and comfortable—thus safer—driving position. With better maneuverability and a short turning radius of 4.5 meters, the Traviz is ideal for multi-purpose trips in various barangays.
Apart from these features, two other key factors that made the Tiaong local government decide to purchase the Traviz were Isuzu Philippines’s commitment to comprehensive aftersales and nationwide parts availability. Further, their long-standing relationship with Isuzu Pagbilao has been consistently assisting the municipality in its transportation needs.
Laguna Technopark Association receives Traviz Ambulance and Modern PUV
Meanwhile, IPC continues its unwavering commitment to being “Your Responsible Partner.”
In a recent ceremony held at the company’s open grounds, a Traviz light-duty truck and modern PUV units were turned over to the Laguna Technopark Association Incorporated (LTAI). Both IPC president Hajime Koso and LTAI Vice-Chairman Masatoshi Sasaki graced the event.
The Traviz light-duty truck is fitted with a customized ambulance body to serve as an addition to the fleet of vehicles for emergency operations inside the park. The modern PUV, meantime, was donated by IPC to show its continuous support to LTAI and to help augment the association’s daily operations shuttling its park employees and tenants.
In his speech, Koso lauded LTAI for its deep and genuine concern for its people, especially amid a raging pandemic. “Times like these are indeed difficult as the crisis stretches on. That is why we need companies like LTAI that are willing to go above and beyond mere business by putting their employees and tenants first. IPC has vowed to provide support to such an organization with a heart for making other people’s welfare a priority,” he said.
Koso also added that the association would further enhance the level of service for its stakeholders with these two additional units. “IPC is delighted to help LTAI transport Covid-19 suspected patients to hospitals or any healthcare facilities. We firmly believe that these Isuzu PUV and Isuzu Traviz ambulance—with its renowned durability, comfort, and safety—would support your future operations in terms of providing swift, efficient, and unhampered transportation,” he said.
Aside from the Traviz Ambulance unit, LTAI is also set to purchase, within the year, another Isuzu light commercial vehicle, a D-MAX pick-up, to serve as a security service unit.
