SINGAPORE
\n–\u00a0Media OutReach<\/a>\u00a0-
\n30 September 2021 – UD Trucks today unveiled a new Euro 5 range for the
\nwell-established Quester (heavy-duty) and Croner (medium-duty) trucks. The
\nupgrade also boasts enhanced features that will improve uptime, enhance efficiency,
\nand optimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), all while lowering the vehicle’s environmental
\nimpact and retaining benefits from previous models.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The
\nnew Euro 5 range will be introduced in fast-growing and emerging regions around
\nthe world that are moving to adopt more stringent international emission
\nstandards in a bid to cut pollution and improve air quality. In most markets,
\nUD Trucks’ new Euro 5 range will be introduced ahead of these regulations to
\nbetter prepare businesses for the switch to a cleaner fleet. <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

This
\nlatest launch bolsters UD Trucks’ Better Life purpose \u2013 to be better for logistics,
\nthe planet, people, and business. Better Life drives the integration of
\nsustainability across all of the company’s operations and processes to realize lower
\nenvironmental impact, higher customer satisfaction, higher profitability, and a
\nbetter place for people to work and live. <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Jacques
\nMichel, UD Trucks International Sales, Senior Vice President, said “In today’s
\nworld, sustainability is more important than ever. COVID-19 is also placing
\nmore emphasis on a more sustainable approach to driving a post-pandemic
\nrecovery. Modern and efficient logistics is vital to keep the world moving in
\nthese fast-evolving times, and our latest launch will ensure greater resilience
\nfor businesses while ensuring environmental impacts are minimized.” <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Air pollution
\nis one of the largest health threats facing the world today[1]<\/a>. According to the
\nInternational Energy Agency (IEA) global energy review 2021[2]<\/a>, global energy carbon
\nemissions are projected to rebound in the post-COVID era to grow by 4.8%. This
\nwould represent the largest single increase in over a decade. Emissions from
\ntransportation alone are at risk of increasing global emission levels by over
\n1.5%. <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Moving
\ntowards cleaner fleets is imperative. Euro 5 reduces NOx emissions by about 43%
\ncompared to Euro 4 and significantly reduces the carbon footprint of the
\nvehicle through cleaner emissions.<\/p>\n

As
\nthe first truck manufacturer to introduce Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR)
\ntechnology in 2004, UD Trucks’ new Euro 5 range features SCR technology to significantly
\nboost environmental protection and fuel economy. With these benefits, SCR technology
\nis proven to be more reliable when compared to other emission control
\ntechnologies for reducing NOx emissions.<\/p>\n

  • Lower maintenance requirements reduce operational costs<\/li>\n
  • Higher power and torque through optimized combustion, without
    \n increasing the size of the engine<\/li>\n
  • Increases fuel efficiency to better manage fuel costs; fuel is the
    \n largest operating expense, representing about 60% of total operating costs[3]<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \n SCR technology to reduce harmful gases from being released into the
    \n atmosphere<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    *AdBlue is available at all authorized UD Trucks dealerships.
    \n AdBlue may also be available at fuel stations, workshops and online <\/i><\/p>\n
