DAF Trucks has been awarded the title LGV Manufacturer of the Year for its Euro 6 engine design and the firm's interactive Driver Performance Assistant programme, which encourages cost and fuel efficient driving.
The award, by GreenFleet magazine, was presented by motoring journalist Quentin Willson at the Heritage Motor Centre in Warwickshire.
"We are delighted that our efforts towards providing the highest levels of fuel efficiency and reliability have been recognised," says DAF Trucks managing director Ray Ashworth.
"Our Euro 6 engine design and driver-focused performance reporting enable fleets to dramatically improve their emission performance as well as lower their overall costs," he added.
