Isuzu turns over modern PUVs to Luzon provinces

Isuzu Philippines Corp. (IPC) recently turned over

a total of 30 modern public utility vehicle (PUV)

in the provinces of Rodriguez, Rizal and Lucban,

Quezon.

The new fleet of PUVs aims to transport

passengers in safety, comfort, and convenience.

Fifteen units of QKR77 light trucks, delivered to

officers and members of the Lucban Genesis

Transport Service and Multipurpose Cooperative

(LGTSMPC), will have two routes: Lucban to

Tayabas and Mauban to Lucena. Metro Comet

Transport Cooperative also received the same

models from Isuzu which will replace current

UV Express with routes plying the Rodriguez,

Rizal and Cubao, Quezon City loop.

“Today, we are very proud to say that Isuzu

not only achieved another milestone but

also continued its legacy by having these

Isuzu PUVs to run the public roads under the

government’s PUV Modernization Program.

With these Isuzu PUVs, we are truly confident

that we will be able to provide a more

comfortable and convenient ride to our public

commuters,” said Shojiro Sakoda, executive vice

president, IPC.

The new generation of PUVs can accommodate up

to 23 passengers with enough legroom, headroom,

and seat space. The vehicle is also equipped with

air-conditioning, Wi-Fi connection to accommodate

online activities of all passengers, automatic fare

collection system powered by Eudoo, three CCTV

cameras, LED destination displays, and GPS tracker.

Assembled in the Philippines, the QKR77 is powered

by a Euro IV-compliant 3.0-liter 4JH1-TC CRDI diesel

engine that delivers better fuel economy and cleaner

emissions. It also has a speed limiter that prevents

drivers from driving over 60 kph.
