“Due to its dense urban environment and hilly city roads, Taiwan needed pick up and delivery trucks with the ability to deliver heavier, bulkier loads more efficiently,” said Ray Huang, General Manager, Taipei Triangle Motors Ltd (TTM), sole distributor and dealer of Isuzu vehicles in Taiwan. “In order to address the high start-stop duty-cycles and numerous application demands, TTM introduced the new FVR 18.5T equipped with the Allison 3000 Series fully automatic transmission to the market.”

This recently released truck is based on the Isuzu F-Series, which offers four wheelbase options, making it one of the most versatile chassis available for medium-duty vehicles. The new FVR truck was designed for Taiwan’s pick up and delivery, and utility applications in compliance with Euro 6 emission standards.

The Allison 3000 Series transmission, paired with the Isuzu 6HK1E6S turbo diesel engine, was developed to make medium-duty vehicles more fuel efficient and easier to operate. The powerful engine and smooth shifting provided by the Allison fully automatic transmission enhances the driver experience through superior maneuverability, including the ability to easily move heavy loads in urban environments.
