Eight HEVs help transporting exceptional loads
Italian haulage firm Mantoan Trasporti specialises in difficult transport assignments involving heavy loads such as industrial machinery and railway equipment. The most recent major contract – which will keep Mantoan engaged for the next few years – involves transporting the shells of the rail carriages needed to build the latest high-speed trains in the USA.
To fulfil the contract from the USA, Mantoan Trasporti has opted for eight new Scania V8 trucks. The carriages are collected from a production site in Piemonte and then transported in Mantoan’s trucks through France to the Belgium port of Zeebrugge, where the cargo is shipped to the USA. Mantoan Trasporti has a fleet of 45 trucks. (ben)
