Goldbell Launches FUSO Euro VI in Singapore

 
New Trucks Fitted with Mobileye’s Revolutionary Technology as Added Safety Feature
 
Singapore, 5 April 2018 – Singapore’s largest player in leasing and distribution of commercial and industrial vehicles Goldbell Group has launched the new ranges of FUSO Euro VI vehicles in Singapore today, in line with the latest global emission standards adopted globally to reduce overall carbon footprint. In addition to the advanced high performance and fuel-efficient features that the new trucks come fitted with will also be the inclusion of Mobileye’s new safety technology as a default for all Canter Euro VI vehicles.
 
Incorporated as an added safety feature for all FUSO Canter trucks, Mobileye’s Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) is a driver-assist system that alerts the driver to potential collisions, thereby reducing the risk of accidents. The strategic artificial vision sensor has been proven to reduce overall collisions, saving lives and reducing operational downtime that could have been resulted from accidents.

Ther new models showcase quality and reliable upgrades that ensure safer trips, reduced operational cost and increased comfort,” says Arthur Chua, Chief Executive Officer of Goldbell Group. “Always committed to supporting our customers with top quality service, we are proud to also be offering our customers Mobileye’s ADAS technology as an added safety component, driving forward our vision in shaping Singapore to become a safer and smarter city,” he added.
