Product quality, reliability and low fuel consumption, as well as the range of solutions and services it offers, enabled Renault Trucks to win the invitation to tender issued by Feldschlösschen Getränke AG (Carlsberg Group) for the supply of 140 vehicles. Five other manufacturers were consulted to replace the Swiss company's fleet. The haulier wanted to operate vehicles that would be more modern, safer and - most important of all - more ecological.
As part of the purchasing process, Renault Trucks also supplied the Feldschlösschen Group with a prototype 26 tonne, 430 hp Premium Distribution fitted with special bodywork for several months of testing under actual operating conditions.
The first vehicles will be delivered in April 2011.
