Al Marwan General Contracting Company (MGCC) has taken delivery of the first Volvo A45G rigid hauler in the UAE from Al-Futtaim Auto & Machinery Company (FAMCO), the authorised dealer for Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) in the UAE.
The 45-ton (41-tonne) articulated hauler features high payload capabilities, dynamic and predictive gear selection and telematics machine monitoring systems such as CareTrack and Matris. The front grill of the new model swings forward and down to reveal a full-service platform with anti-slip steps, while the electric hood swings up and back by a full 90 degrees to allow full and safe access to the engine compartment.
Vladimir Knezevic, managing director, FAMCO UAE, said: “The handover of the new Volvo CE A45G articulated hauler to our first customer in the UAE marks the official launch of the G Series in the country. The G Series haulers deliver a whole new level of efficiency, reliability and value on the job. FAMCO is able to bring this product from Volvo CE to market with confidence in both its world-class engineering and design, and FAMCO’s service. FAMCO will continue to invest in such heavy-duty vehicles to ensure the best possible results and the highest standards of overall operational efficiency for all construction sites.”
