IVECO's proven HI-SCR engine technology, which eliminates the need for Euro VI vehicles to make periodic stops for forced regeneration, has led Navajo Leasing to add three new 18-tonne Eurocargo rigids to its fleet, with a further order planned for later in 2020.
Supplied by IVECO Retail, the new arrivals increase IVECO’s share of the airport ground support equipment specialist’s fleet to 80%. The trucks will operate at London Heathrow, transporting palletised air freight and containers between commercial aircraft and the cargo village.
IVECO’s patented HI-SCR technology is the only emission control system which does not change the combustion process because it works through fresh air intake rather than exhaust gas recirculation. This means the combustion temperature remains high and the percentage of particulate is reduced, without the need for an active diesel particulate filter, thereby eliminating the problems of forced regeneration at source.
