Kuehne + Nagel Group UK Fits 164 Iveco Stralis Trucks with MiX Telematics Systems
NewswireToday - /newswire/ -
London, United Kingdom, 09/14/2009 - Supplied by Iveco Capital on a three year contract which includes full repair and maintenance, the Stralis AT440S45TX/P 6x2 twin-steer tractor units are plated at 44 tonnes and replace 149 similar models which were supplied by Iveco in 2006.
Trevor Hewitt, Group Fleet Engineer at Kuehne + Nagel, explains: “Our first Stralis order three years ago followed an extensive evaluation of vehicles from a number of different manufacturers. The decision to replace like-for-like follows the proven performance of the vehicles in our fleet, combined with the competitive whole-life costs of the Stralis across the three year contract.”
As the largest national drinks distribution network in the country, KN Drinks Logistics is using the vehicles for the dedicated bulk movement of beverages from production sites to the company’s five regional distribution centres, as well as to large multiple retail customers. They will operate in conjunction with a mix of 13.6m tri-axle curtainside trailers and 9m tri-axle skeletal trailers.
Additionally, each vehicle has been specified to include alloy wheels and a MiX telematics system (mixtelematics.com) which connects through Iveco’s on-board Fleet Management System (FMS) interface. The FMS is included in all new Stralis’ as standard, allowing full connectivity with aftermarket telematics systems without the need to specify other factory-fitted options at additional cost.
