UD Trucks Introduces its Upgrades to Quon

At UD Trucks, our mission is to use innovation to be more environmentally conscious while also putting people first,” said Jacques Michel, Senior Vice President, UD Trucks International Sales. “With our new, upgraded Quon, we are leveraging advanced and smart technologies to actively support the needs of our drivers and customers, for today and tomorrow.”

The Quon’s upgraded features make significant strides in better environmental performance while delivering reliability and improved cost efficiency.

Innovative logistics solutions that enable more environmentally sustainable transportation

UD Trucks supports Japan’s climate change mitigation commitment to become carbon neutral by 2050. The upgraded Quon exceeds Japan’s current fuel economy standards for heavy-duty vehicles by 10 per cent[1] and complies with upcoming Japanese fuel economy standards.

The upgraded Quon’s ESCOT-VI 12-speed automated manual transmission also provides improved gear shifting and suppresses fluctuations in fuel efficiency to enhance fuel economy. Owners of the upgraded Quon will see better environmental performance, which is good for their business and the society-at-large.

Advanced Features for Better efficiency, Productivity, and Profitability

The Quon’s newest upgrades will allow owners to enjoy a boost in overall productivity, through increased fuel efficiency and optimized operations that delivers a lower cost of ownership.

They can also gain enhanced performance with the Quon’s redesigned engine and rear axle that provides higher power and torque at lower engine speeds, allowing for faster acceleration. The upgraded Quon is also equipped with a lighter chassis designed for maximum payload[2], contributing to increased uptime.

Additionally, enhancements to safety features such as the Traffic Eye Cruise Control with new Stop and Driver Initiate Go function, helps to reduce the probability of potential accidents and associated repair costs.

High Quality Maintenance that Maximizes Uptime and Minimizes Operating Costs

On top of exceptional anti-wear, deposit, and soot control that protects the engine’s cylinders, pistons, rings and valve train components, the Quon’s new engine also requires one less oil filter to be replaced during servicing and uses up to 6 per cent less engine oil[3]. Engine oil replacement intervals have also been extended by up to 35 per cent3, which reduces maintenance costs and increase.

The upgrades to Quon’s engine are also complemented by UD Extra Mile Support – the full suite of vehicle support solutions that takes advantage of the entire UD Network to provide owners with prompt support throughout the life of the vehicle. This includes UD Trust Service Agreements covering optimal preventive maintenance and reliable servicing and inspections by qualified technicians, alongside the use of genuine and reliable parts.

Maintenance costs and uptime are also managed efficiently with the Quon’s connectivity to UD Trucks workshops, where an alerts monitoring system allows for dynamic service planning and preventative maintenance, resulting in fewer breakdowns.

Enhanced Active Safety Features to Keep Drivers and their Surroundings Safe

UD Trucks is committed to safety and contributing to the automotive industry’s Vision Zero goal of preventing injuries or fatalities from road collisions, while increasing safe and equitable mobility for drivers, communities, and other road users. The upgraded Quon delivers in this regard, where it puts the highest priority on the safety, well-being, and productivity of drivers.

New, advanced safety features introduced on the Quon include the improved Traffic Eye Cruise Control with new Stop & Driver Initiate Go function, that makes the vehicle safer and easier to drive by automatically controlling speed and reducing driver stress and fatigue. The upgraded Quon is also equipped with more active safety technologies, such as the Traffic Eye Brake System[4], Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) that triggers an alarm to alert drivers when they unintentionally leave the lane and UD Stability Control that automatically detects and adjusts engine output and braking to retain truck stability.

Diverse Features Allowing Drivers to Focus on the Road Ahead

The Quon has several unique features that maximize performance. Drivers of the upgraded Quon can benefit from its attention to enhanced drivability and safety, through its innovative features, such as more accurate fuel readings, redesigned fuel tank that provides higher ground clearance, stainless steel muffler covers that minimize susceptibility to rust and an additional, second front axle park brake for increased safety.

Drivability and comfort are also elevated with the intuitively designed ESCOT-VI automated manual transmission that is simple and easy-to-use, making gear shifting easier and faster, as well as the redesigned four-spoke steering wheel for a more ergonomic and comfortable grip. Alongside dedicated driver development tools and fuel coaching feature, the Quon delivers operational efficiency and productivity.

UD Trucks continues to use technology to make its better trucks, in line with its Better Life purpose to make life better for people and the planet.

The newest upgrades to Quon will be introduced in international markets, namely Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and South Africa from August 2022, with features differing between markets. 

UD Trucks 和陈唱工业用具私人有限公司移交10辆崭新的 Quester重型牵引车给东南亚物流服务供应商EH Utara Holdings

马来西亚UD Trucks 和独家授权经销伙伴陈唱工业用具私人有限公司(TCIE)日前通过吉打的授权经销商LK Utara私人有限公司移交10多辆UD Quester 重型卡车给长期客户——东南亚规模最大的物流服务供应商EH Utara Holdings 私人有限公司(EH Utara)。这10辆Quester 重型卡车包括5辆UD Quester GDE 6x2 牵引车和5辆 GKE 4x2 牵引车。

EH Utara是一家成立于1975年的本地企业。该公司从一家小型贸易公司发展成东南亚最大的物流服务供应商之一,提供完整的跨境物流服务,并采用无缝转运和卓越的追踪系统。该公司表示,随着物流行业在后疫情时代越来越蓬勃发展,崭新的UD Quester 牵引车将用于应付该公司日益增长的业务需求。

EH Utara共有120辆卡车。随着10辆新卡车加入公司的车队,EH Utara如今拥有91辆UD trucks 卡车。两家公司的高管日前在一场简单但隆重的交车仪式上,见证这个欢庆车队再增UD trucks卡车的重要时刻。

在交车仪式上,马来西亚UD Trucks 董事经理Steve Hedouin提道:“首先,我们要感谢EH Utara对UD Trucks所给予的信任和支持,并成为我们长期和忠实的客户。”

“UD Quester 卡车是见证日本不断创新的杰作,它为当今的物流行业提供更精明的解决方案。UD Quester 将一流的燃油效益和持久耐用特性结合在一起,行稳致远,它给予的额外动力和性能使这部重型卡车成为客户的理想长途良伴。 我们很高兴本公司的卡车能协助推进EH Utara的业务增长,往后的日子我们也会继续这么做。

Video Inside - Asian Buses Roadshow: The SupeNice Tour 2022

The idea was simple: we wanted to experience bus travel in Malaysia to visit a few places that we hadn’t seen for<a while. When we floated the idea to Super Nice, which is headquartered in Prai, with an affiliated companyin Singapore, this took on a slightly different twist. Super Nice also offers chartered buses, complete withdrivers, for groups to plan their own tours. Perfect for corporate events, tourist groups or large families wanting to explore Malaysia, this is the perfect vehicle to truly Cuti-Cuti Malaysia.

Vital Stops to Keep your Buses Moving Profitably

Today’s operations require vehicles to offer as much uptime as possible. On one hand, the biggest enemy of any bus operator is an unplanned breakdown, requiring the vehicle to be pulled in for repairs. Not only does this affect the bottom line, but also the reputation of the company as passenger may suffer delays and could be inconvenienced. Planned maintenance on the other hand, is helping to ensure that a vehicle is continuously providing the hours required on the road to turn a profit.

The service network of Scania in Malaysia is comprised of eight workshops in peninsular Malaysia and four in East Malaysia. Strategically placed, they offer operators fast turn-around and expert knowledge to get their vehicles back on the road. Although a very important aspect of running a bus fleet, the scheduled service intervals constitute downtime. Therefore, the location of the workshops is of great importance as the driving distance should be kept at a minimum. The scenic routes are reserved for the charter buses!

At each of the workshops, Scania’s teams comprise of technicians and specialists. For instance, dedicated staff is handling the parts warehouse: availability of parts is crucial for the swift turn-around of the vehicles. Using modern technology, each vehicle is being thoroughly checked before the service is carried out. Equipped with computers, technicians can accurately evaluate the status of all parts and decided if anything needs to be fixed in consultation with the client. Sometimes, it pays to have parts replaced a bit ahead of their intended lifespan in order to avoid the vehicle to come in for another service soon after. The availability of parts is guaranteed by the teams planning ahead on when a vehicle should be coming in for a regular service. Should parts be needed outside the recommended schedule, the central warehouses in Bukit Jelutong and Singapore feed the supply chain and even more uncommon parts can quickly be delivered to any of the workshops should the need arise.

Through Scania’s proprietary Fleet Management System connectivity and real-time vehicle data is ensured. By way of analysing the driving style of each driver, Scania offers proactive and preventive services to maximise uptime and operating economy. Scania’s approach to service and maintenance is reflected in the new slogan, which was present during the Malaysia Commercial Vehicle Expo 2022: “Profit Now. Profit Tomorrow.”

In the event of a break-down, Scania’s mobile teams will come to rescue the vehicle. Applying the same time rule of allowing two hours to respond and to get to the break-down site, the dedicated technicians are well-trained in maintenance in the field. Should a repair on site not be possible, the buses will be towed to the nearest workshop where they are being readied again for operation.

Although service intervals have been growing in terms of milage that a vehicle can drive before coming in for a service, it is not recommended to exceed the intervals as per indication by Scania. While such delays may impact the cash flow, the practice of extending service intervals also adds risks to the operation. As many components are interconnected, a faulty or worn out part can impact other parts which may then require premature replacement. Not expensing services in one week may quickly result in more money needing to be spent.
Workshops are more than repair shops: they can be career spring boards too. Having solid and profound knowledge of the vehicles can allow staff to move laterally in their careers. Knowing how to fix a bus for instance can be highly beneficial in designing it. Another aspect is that the act of servicing vehicles can yield data for the OEM on how to improve the design and functionality of the bus. All the more reasons to adhere to the service schedule as indicated by the manufacturer.

Volvo Buses Wins UITP Climate and Health Award

The annual International Association of Public Transport (UITP) Awards showcase the most ambitious and innovative public transport projects of the last two years in cities and regions across the globe. The 2021 awards ceremony took place in Dubai on 6 February.

“We are delighted to see our electromobility delivery in Gothenburg win this important award,” says Ulf Magnusson, SVP Europe at Volvo Buses. “Electrifying 35 percent of a city bus fleet overnight demands extensive planning, close collaborations and expertise. The project is part of our ongoing commitment to quiet, clean and sustainable public transport that helps to create Zero Cities all over the world.”

Mohamed Mezghani, Secretary General, UITP says: "The UITP Awards celebrates the most ambitious and cutting-edge projects from around the globe. Volvo Buses and the Gothenburg delivery exceeded expectations on all the criteria that we set. We felt the project excelled at enhancing quality of life in urban areas by promoting public transport while positioning it as the backbone of urban and local mobility. The project managed to do this innovatively, with prospects for replication by our colleagues in the sector. We congratulate them and are very proud to offer them a UITP Award!”

The Gothenburg delivery included the provision of 145 Volvo 7900 Electric Articulated buses and charging infrastructure in the city. Close partnerships with the local public transport authority Västtrafik, and the bus operators Transdev, were essential for the project to succeed. Implementation of the entire electromobility system and bus fleet took place overnight for a seamless transition.

The environmental benefits have been significant. Calculations show that CO2 emissions in city traffic have been reduced by 10 percent compared to the replaced vehicles, which were already running on renewable fuels. Emissions of nitrogen oxides have almost halved and particles have decreased by almost 20 percent.

Volvo Buses’ in-depth experience and competence in a range of electromobility solutions has been bolstered by the recent launch of its global BZL Electric chassis. It offers a solid platform that will accelerate the transition to sustainable and efficient public transport around the world. 

Volvo Hosted Conference "Insights into Electric Buses" in Malaysia

Volvo Buses was proud to host the “Insights into Electric Buses” conference in Putrajaya, Malaysia, on May 24th, 2022. Graced by the Ministry of Transport and The Swedish Embassy, the ambition of the conference was to grow awareness, share knowledge and drive insights into successful electric bus adaptation and eventually contribute to building a sustainable electromobility road map in Malaysia.

Attended by over 80 delegates from public transport operators, government agencies and various institutional outlets, in attendance were also guests of honour, YBhg Ola Pihlblad, Counsellor & Deputy Head of Mission from Embassy of Sweden to Malaysia, and Ybhg Datuk Isham bin Ishak, Secretary General from Ministry Of Transport, Malaysia - who both opened the conference with speeches addressing the determination of Malaysia towards its commitment in achieving a carbon-neutral state, and the direction towards a sustainable future of public transport in Malaysia. 

The conference drew on the knowledge and expertise of Volvo Buses’ electromobility experts, the experience, and findings from pioneering operators as well as the learnings and reflections from charging infrastructure partners. With specially invited subject matter experts from Australia, Sweden and Singapore, the conference addressed key considerations for electric buses’ operation and maintenance, charging infrastructure set up and energy system storage management, paving a concrete road map for emerging market’s adaptation of electric buses.

“I am pleased to witness the initiative from Volvo Buses and their passion in sharing the experience in electromobility from other markets. Malaysia via its National  Transport Policy 2019-2030 is committed towards realising the greener environment ambition and electrifying the public transport system is an important footstep towards our objective and ambition on sustainability.” said Datuk Isham Ishak, Secretary General of Ministry of Transport Malaysia.

Key topics presented to delegates were:

• Key Considerations for Electric Bus Adoption

Volvo is Celebrating 200 000 chassis in Borås

Since 1977, Volvo's Borås factory has manufactured bus chassis for the global markets now reaching the milestone of 200 000 units produced. The chassis number 200 000 was their latest Volvo BZL Electric, a coincidence, but of high probability since the brand has been ramping up the production of this particular after the recent launch.

Even though number 200 000 was an BZL Electric, over 50 different chassis models have been made in Borås and some of the most popular models were the Volvo B10M, Volvo B7R/B7RLE and the Volvo B11R.

The Borås factory is Volvo's industrial hub for chassis production for global markets and is one of the first bus production facilities that relies solely on renewable energy. All the energy that the factory uses comes from renewable sources, such as hydropower and biofuels. If you would like to read more

The picture is from the occasion when Volvo celebrated chassis number 200 000. In the picture there are some employees from the Borås plant including Joakim Wretman, Vice President Operations, Borås and Anna Westerberg, President of Volvo Buses. 

What it Takes to Win the IToY Truck Innovation Award

annual Truck Innovation Award has been launched in 2018 by the International Truck of the Year organisation (IToY) which reflects the ongoing energy-transition taking place within the automotive industry towards new, unconventional, low-environmental footprint trucks.

Entries to the Truck Innovation Award will be nominated and judged in parallel with the long-running International Truck of the Year award.

The main criterion for the nomination and election of a truck for the Truck Innovation Award will be based on its likely contribution to increasing the efficiency of transport of goods by road in the foreseeable future, as well as the potential reduction of its environmental footprint within the countries involved in the International Truck of the Year Organisation.

The nominated truck must be an advanced technology vehicle, with a gross vehicle weight over 3.5 tonnes. It should either feature an alternative driveline — e.g. hybrid, hybrid range-extender, all-electric — or have an alternative fuel-system such as LNG/CNG/ hydrogen/fuel cells etc.

Alternatively, it will have specific ‘Hi-tech’ solutions in terms of ‘vehicle connectivity’ — whether semi-autonomous /fully-autonomous driving systems, ‘platooning’ capability, advanced support services such as remote diagnostics etc. — that are still in a prototype/early-development phase (single unit), or in ‘small series’ production.

But whatever the specification, ‘Truck Innovation Award’ nominees must be a ‘driveable truck’ i.e. one-off concept vehicles are not eligible.

The inaugural ceremony of the Truck Innovation Award will take place during the IAA Commercial Vehicle Show in Hanover when the first winner will be announced

Worsening Traffic Jams by Banning Trucks

Traffic jam in plaguing many large cities. Recently, the strict enforcement of a ban of heavy goods vehicles into Kuala Lumpur was announced. Which will create even worse traffic jams. Here is why: this is likely to be the same flawed logic as what banks applied by cutting hours to reduce contact between people. However, the number of trucks is not going to be reduced, just shifted. If X equals the number of trucks on the road at a given time, V the total truck population and T is the time, then when T is reduced, X goes up. The trucks won’t go away, they are just being delayed and then added to the vehicles on the road at a later time. In essence, there will be MORE vehicles on the road outside the exclusion times.

As business people are after profits, they will ensure that the delivery takes place, with or without the ban. One solution is to send in smaller vehicles, which are still permitted. Instead of one heavy vehicle, there will now be four small ones to deliver the same volume. Maybe that means smaller profit margins, but it means goods are moving faster too.

The solution is not to re-schedule vehicles. What must be done is an elimination of vehicles. The ratio of one commercial vehicle to approximately 30 private cars is the problem. Would it make any difference if 100 trucks would be rescheduled? One can daresay: hardly. However, if 120 people took a bus, ditching their cars, that would make a lot more space on the road. It is the other type of commercial vehicle that needs to be deployed. What is needed is an order for about 5 000 buses in all shapes and forms. These buses need to be running frequently, dependable and between places that people need to and want to go to. With the addition of heavily enforced, dedicated bus lanes it will be a sure case of building it and they will come. As a net effect, the trucks will not get stuck in traffic either, further reducing emission, noise and congestion. 

Another way to reduce the number of vehicles on the roads is to increase their capacity. Today’s trucks have powerful engines and increasing the length of trailers would certainly not be a major issue for the prime mover. What we see in Europe is an increase of permissible trailer length by one to two Euro palette lengths. Assuming we add 2.4 meters of length to a trailer, that allows for up to 12 more palettes to be loaded! When we multiply this across fleet sizes and trips made to re-supply supermarkets, malls and depots, a significant amount of capacity will be added. And we may see fewer trucks on the road as each truck pulls more.

Similarly, we can increase the number of B-Double trailers to be put into action on long-haul routes. Again, the trucks would surely be able to pull them safely and efficiently. This would again increase the capacity while at the same time addressing the driver shortage.

与早前在2020年12月推介的Aumark S轻型超级卡车一样,福田Aumark S 城市穿梭机BJ1065四轮轻卡系列是以公司的“超凡”哲学平台打造。这个哲学代表着福田卡车的五大要素——安全性、实用性、强大力量、高效率以及可靠度。Aumark S城市穿梭机轻卡为全球超级卡车创新联盟的合作成果之一,集结世界顶尖科技企业包括康明斯(Cummins)、采埃孚(ZF Friedrichshafen)、威博科(WABCO)、博世(Bosch)以及爱思帝(Exedy),集思打造的超群产品。

采埃孚5速手动变速箱完美结合康明斯引擎,可顺畅换挡并提供高效能。以轻型铝合金制造的变速箱和最优化的齿轮比能有效减少油耗;涡轮齿轮的精良设计也能有效降低噪音。康明斯ISF引擎以及采埃孚5速手动变速箱让卡车效能更强劲。

城市穿梭机轻卡车总重量(GVW)约为5.6公吨,是四轮轻卡类组的佼佼者,适合在城市与城际之间穿行,其承载量大大提高客户的 运输效能。

车内设计也经过提升。加强版的座椅,采用长效泡棉以及耐磨材质,车内也设有水杯架子以及车顶置物空间,让司机与副驾驶更为舒适和方便,降低长时间驾驶的疲惫感。

安全方面,Aumark S城市穿梭机轻卡的底盘升级设计遵守欧洲安全标准,并通过各类测试,符合欧洲经济委员会(ECE)的R29项全球监管标准。卡车也配有防制动系统(ABS),并且也有电子制动力分配装置(EBD)以及辅助刹车,在紧急状况时,为驾驶者提供强效且安全的刹车效能。

Angka-Tan Motor高级总经理黄杰星(Danny Ng)说:“安全与可靠性为首要考量,所有福田卡车均遵守严格生产标准,履行福田所强调的“超凡”承诺。为确保Aumark S卡车系列在智能控制、安全性能、节能省油、顺畅驾驶等方面的能力与能耐,Aumark S卡车系列在不同路况、气候和海拔条件下接受了160万公里的路面测试。”

福田汽车集团为全球公认且极具信誉的首选商用卡车品牌,全球110个国家销量超过1000万辆。福田汽车集团也连续17年蝉联中国商用卡车冠军同时也在中国500大品牌中排名第三十四,品牌价值达260亿美元。

作为中国商用卡车制造业的佼佼者,集团加速发展低碳或零碳生产技术以降低汽油使用以及碳排放。福田也将环境维护列为优先考量,与中国极力在2030年达到碳达峰与2060年达到碳中和的目标一致。

中国北汽福田汽车东南亚大区总经理王晓宁(Eric Wang)说:“有鉴于此,商用车辆的低碳与零碳的技术发展刻不容缓,借此可以降低汽油使用量以及碳排放量。”

陈庆民补充道:“我们将与福田合作,将这些新技术发展引进马来西亚。”
