News from DAF: The new DAF Euro 6 XF has announced as the 2014 Truck of the Year by readers of the renowned Polski Traker monthly magazine. DAF’s top-of-the-range model was commended for its elegant design, safety features and superb comfort.
The Truck of the Year Award is the Polish premier award for the transport industry. The jury consisted of readers from the magazine and they acclaimed the DAF Euro 6 XF also because of its fuel efficient 10.8 litre MX-11 and 12.9 litre MX-13 PACCAR engines. The DAF Euro 6 XF received 640 of the total of about 1,000 votes. Its predecessor – the DAF XF105 – won the Polish Truck of the Year Award in 2006 and 2007.
“This recognition is so valuable because it is given by the users themselves, being truck drivers”, said Harrie Schippers, DAF Trucks President. “I’m delighted that they recognised the Euro 6 XF as their preferred long distance truck of choice.”
DAF Trucks NV, a subsidiary of the American company PACCAR Inc, is a leading manufacturer of light, medium and heavy-duty trucks in Europe with a market share of 16.2% in the over 16 tonnes category.
