Isuzu Truck UK adds Grafter Green to Driveaway programme

Isuzu Truck UK has added a selection of the new Grafter Green rigids to its range of Driveaway pre-bodied vehicles.

The move sees the first Grafter Green 3.5 tonne N35.125 trucks on offer under the manufacturer’s Driveaway scheme.

The trucks are available in both single and twin rear wheel versions, with either tipper or drop side bodies.

Richard Waterworth, head of sales at Isuzu Truck UK, said: “Since we launched our Driveaway programme several years ago, it has proved to be a successful route to market, providing our customers with significantly reduced lead times and no need for time-delaying type approval.

“More than 35% of our Isuzu Forward 7.5-tonne retail sales now go through the Driveaway programme, whereas that figure rises to amazing 60% for our 3.5-tonne Grafter models.”

Isuzu Truck UK has also added its Grafter Green N35.125 rigids, fitted with a specialist Utilitruck body, to the Driveaway range. The new model comes with a TGS (UK) tipper body and secure tool pod for storing tools and equipment.

The seven different Driveaway vehicle options from Isuzu’s 7.5-tonne truck range all feature the Easyshift automatic gearbox. They include dropside, tipper, curtainside and box bodies, specified on either the Isuzu Forward N75.190 or N75.150 Urban chassis cabs.

Waterworth added: “Without doubt, the Isuzu Truck UK Driveaway programme has proved to be incredibly popular with our customers.

"By consistently adding new models to the range, we now have a comprehensive selection of the most sought-after vehicle specifications in various GVW categories, enabling our customers to reduce the lead time and costs for fleet replacements and additions.”
