The Gqeberha dealership consists of a full-service workshop and parts store, a paint shop, a boiler shop, a fabrication shop, a tyre store, a laboratory, a wash bay and an oil store.
As it falls under the umbrella of the Scribante Group, it also houses a readymix batching plant for Scribante Concrete.
Van Eyk contributed the dealership’s success to excellent customer service and aftersales care.
“It’s easy to do a good job of selling and servicing a product if that product has a solid reputation for strength, reliability, ease of operation and value for money.
“Each unit is built for Africa in SA and that makes FAW Trucks a good fit for customers who place a high premium on reliability and affordability,” he said.
The JH6 28.500FT is the largest truck tractor from FAW Trucks, featuring a full floating extended-roof cab with an innovative flat floor design for optimal comfort and a spacious interior.
Its 13-litre, six-cylinder common-rail turbocharged and intercooled diesel powerplant produces 370 kW at 1 800 r/min, has 2 300 Nm of peak torque on tap at 1 400 r/min and is commonly referred to as China’s most efficient engine.
It is mated to a ZF 12-speed TraXon AMT transmission, with parabolic spring suspension front and rear to address vehicle weight requirements.
A full air dual circuit WABCO braking system with ABS enhances the long hauler’s safety features.
FAW SA CEO Jianyu Hao said: “FAW Trucks is committed to truck sales and service of the highest quality.
“The Scribante-owned facility in the Eastern Cape has aligned itself with this vision and mission by providing exceptional service to customers.
“The fact that the Scribante Group itself owns various FAW Trucks proves that it is not merely paying lip service, but believes in all that the brand represents.”
