Penang-based cross-border transport specialist City Zone Express Sdn Bhd (CZE) recently expanded its fleet with additional Euro V-specification trucks to accelerate its sustainability efforts.
City Zone Express Invests in MAN TGS Euro V Trucks
As an early adopter of the MAN TGS, CZE was one of the first customers to embrace the model when it was first launched in 2021 by MAN Truck & Bus (M) Sdn Bhd, the wholly-owned subsidiary of the German premium commercial vehicle company MAN Truck & Bus SE.
CZE added three more MAN TGS vehicles, Malaysia’s best-selling Euro V truck, to its fleet. This decision follows the impressive fuel efficiency and reduced CO2 emissions achieved by its first MAN TGS 18.360 6×2.
CZE General Manager S. Pirithivaraj highlighted the company’s unwavering commitment to environmental sustainability, a priority that was further emphasised after its recent acquisition by Swiss-based global logistics leader Kuehne+Nagel.
“We did not hesitate to acquire the Euro V-specification MAN TGS when it was first launched in Malaysia as it provided visibility in CO2 emission that is demanded by some of our clients with stringent ESG commitments. They appreciate that we track the emission level of every shipment in real-time for total transparency.
“Moving forward, we plan to acquire more Euro V-specification trucks and eventually electric trucks for long haul transportation when the infrastructure is in place. We are also actively looking into adopting renewable energy solutions such as solar power for our operations,” he said.
The trucks were handed over by MAN Malaysia to CZE in a symbolic ceremony at its Client Day event in Penang recently.
MAN Malaysia Managing Director Andrew O’Brooks applauded CZE for its foresight in reducing the carbon footprint of its 260-strong truck fleet.
“The MAN TGS has certainly proven its worth and we are more than ready to support the growing needs of CZE. Our strategically located network of branches and high level of digitalisation could help ensure that CZE’s fleet of MAN trucks enjoy optimum uptime and deliver superior performance at all times,” he said.
City Zone Express通过欧V曼恩牵引车
推进可持续发展进程
总部位于槟城的跨州运输业专家City Zone Express私人有限公司（CZE），计划通过增购欧V规格卡车扩展其牵引车车队规模，推动其可持续发展进程。
自曼恩商用车（MAN Truck & Bus SE）独资子公司—曼恩商用车（马）私人有限公司（MAN Truck & Bus (M) Sdn Bhd）于2021年首度推出曼恩TGS以来，CZE就是首家引进该系列卡车的客户之一。
继首辆曼恩TGS 18.360 6×2在油耗和排放方面表现出色后，该公司近期再增购了3辆在大马深受欢迎的曼恩TGS欧V规格卡车，进一步扩大其车队。
CZE总经理S Pirithivaraj强调该公司对环境可持续发展的坚定承诺。总部设在瑞士的全球物流巨擘Kuehne+Nagel日前收购了CZE，而这标志著该公司将优先考虑车队的全面转型。
他說：“在欧V规格的曼恩TGS首次登陆大马时，我们毫不犹豫地购入，因为它完全符合部分严格要求我们遵守ESG碳排放承诺的客户需求。他们相当赞赏我们能够每次即时监控运输过程中的碳排放，确保整个过程透明公开。未来，我们将计划采购更多欧V规格卡车，并在基础设施完善后逐步引入电动卡车用于长途运输。我们也积极研究在运营中使用可再生能源解决方案，如太阳能。”
大马曼恩近日在槟城举办的客户日活动中，象征性地将这批卡车正式移交给CZE。
大马曼恩董事经理安德鲁·奥布鲁克斯（Andrew O’Brooks）赞扬CZE在减少其260辆卡车车队碳足迹方面的远见。
他說：“曼恩TGS的价值已获得认可，而我们也已准备好支援CZE日益增长的需求。我们位于策略性位置的分行网络以及高度数码化的业务，可确保CZE的曼恩卡车车队实现最佳正常行驶时间，同时提供卓越的性能表现。”
