Truck News: Viva Haulage Sdn Bhd gets its first new Scania Truck from Scania Malaysia for its expansion plans

 Handing over the keys to the truck to Mr Tee Wah Meng, Director of Viva Haulage Sdn Bhd, was Tuan Haji Idros Puteh, Sales Director, Scania Southeast Asia. 

Viva Haulage Sdn Bhd (Viva) has taken delivery of its first brand new Scania truck. The company which specializes in the container haulage business for major forwarding agents and freight forwarders in Port Klang had chosen the Scania P410LA 6x2 MSZ truck. This truck comes with a host of added benefits to ensure maximum support for its customers.



Planning to secure more trucks in the very near future, Viva will seriously consider Scania trucks especially for their safety, fuel economy, powerful performance, reliability and uptime. As for this P410LA truck, Viva will benefit from the 2-years free Scania Assistance, the 2-years free Scania Maintenance and the 10 years free Scania Fleet Management System. This is a total Scania package in all aspects and the financing for the truck is also done via Scania Credit Sdn Bhd.

The Scania P410LA 6x2 MSZ truck comes with a powerful engine (13liters 410hp / 2150Nm) with higher torque at lower revs, delivering better drivability and fuel-efficiency. The Scania Opticruise automated manual gearbox that comes as standard, provides the best gear-change and gives Viva drivers more time spent on handling the truck and managing the fuel economy. This feature also reduces clutch and synchromesh wear and tear.

The handing over of any truck is usually a very big thing to any haulage company. This is no exception.

Handing over the keys to the truck to Mr Tee Wah Meng, Director of Viva Haulage Sdn

Bhd, was Tuan Haji Idros Puteh, Sales Director, Scania Southeast Asia.

“We consider ourselves small in size compared to other bigger haulage operators, but we

are very focused in what we do and we tie ourselves very well with strategic partners in

the logistic business rather than cover the full logistics chain, enabling us to maintain

double-digit growth after we went really aggressive in 2014,” said Tee.

Planning to secure more trucks in the very near future, Viva will seriously consider Scania

trucks especially for their safety, fuel economy, powerful performance, reliability and

uptime.

“I am very pleased with my decision to finally get my first new Scania truck and know that

Viva’s business operations will benefit from the 2-years free Scania Assistance, the 2-

years free Scania Maintenance and the 10 years free Scania Fleet Management System.

And by financially securing the truck via Scania Credit Sdn Bhd, my business can now

expand further,” added Tee.

Viva also believes that its drivers are the most important asset of the company and

intends to train his drivers more. With the activation of the Scania Fleet Management

System, Viva would be able to identify specific training needs for its drivers based on the

vehicle and driver data.

The Scania P410LA 6x2 MSZ truck comes with a powerful engine with higher torque at

lower revs, delivering better drivability and fuel-efficiency.

The Scania Opticruise automated manual gearbox that comes as standard, provides the

best gear-change and gives Viva drivers more time spent on handling the truck and

managing the fuel economy. This feature also reduces clutch and synchromesh wear and

tear.

The driver station ergonomics offers superior comfort for the drivers, keeping Viva drivers

focused and alert at all times.

“We are happy to have Viva’s trust in Scania’s sustainable transport solutions. We

continue to support Viva in helping them achieve the best profitability in the long term,”

said Idros.
