Sojitz Fuso Philippines Corporation (SFP), in collaboration with Carworld, Inc. (CWI) – FUSO Pampanga, recently delivered the brand-new Canter FE71 AMT to its inaugural customer, RG5 Construction. RG5 Construction is a well-established construction and equipment firm based in Sta. Maria, Bulacan, a firm that proudly has over 15 years of experience in the industry.
Mr. Rodrigo Aviso, the proprietor of RG5 Construction, expressed their steadfast loyalty to the FUSO brand. He stated, “When it comes to quality, FUSO has always been our preference when it comes to our commercial vehicles. FUSO, with its origin embedded in Japanese craftmanship, is synonymous with exceptionally high quality – it symbolizes the unwavering commitment to technological innovation and excellence.
When questioned about his decision to opt for the all-new Canter FE71 AMT, he explained, “It’s because of durability. We purchased the all-new Canter AMT due to its remarkable longevity and impressive efficiency. We decided on this because our business primarily involves frequent long drives. We also prioritize satisfying driving experience while being exceptionally dependable on the road.”
“Despite our busy schedule, our sales consultant strongly recommended our presence at this significant event. Meeting Mr. Nishi and the rest of the team is an honor. As mentioned, I’ve always been impressed with the quality of FUSO. It’s one of the main reasons I stayed loyal over the years. Just maintain the brand’s quality since it’s the key to ensuring customers’ continued satisfaction and trust.”
Mr. Yosuke Nishi, President & CEO of SFP, holds the partnership and commitment between FUSO Philippines and RG5 Construction in high regard, as they seek to cultivate a mutually beneficial relationship. In his words, “We are grateful for your trust in Carworld, Inc., Sojitz FUSO Philippines, and for acquiring the all-new Canter FE71. We are delighted to hand you the keys to your new FUSO Canter with automated manual transmission.”
The all-new FE71 model integrates Fuso's Canter FE73's 3.0-liter engine, representing a significant improvement over the older model's 4M42-3AT2 engine. This inline-four direct injection diesel engine, referred to as the 4P10-KAT2, not only delivers enhanced power but also complies with the stringent EURO 5 emissions standards. On top of that, the truck chosen by RG5 Construction is equipped with Fuso’s Duonic six-speed automated manual transmission. The automated manual transmission promises to deliver the same heavy-weight performance as a manual transmission but with the ease and convenience of an automatic.
