Volkswagen sells 70 bright red vans to Miele
The top German domestic appliance company , Miele, has taken possession of its 1st batch of an order for seventy latest Volkswagen Transporters – making it one of the 1st business to take delivery of the new Transporter following its introduction in January.
The latest Volkswagen Transporters were ordered as part of Miele’s continuing vehicle replacement programme to update its fleet of 110 vans. Not surprisingly , as a supplier of best quality products , Miele has selected to keep its van fleet wholly Volkswagen, and all in a unique bright red colour.
‘We required a fleet that was unfailing and only that could meet the emergent requirements of our customers ,’ said Tony Stephens, Miele Fleet Operations Manager.
‘The Volkswagen van collection has always been admired with our technicians, so we were very satisfied to step forward to the new and more distinguished Transporter. In addition to the quality and service we are pleased with the constantly strong resale values of the vehicles,’ he continued.
The added modifiction , as well as better fuel economy, lesser sound and greener Euro5 emissions are thanks to Volkswagen’s latest 2.0-litre, four-cylinder common rail TDI engine which replaced the Transporter’s former 2.5-litre, five-cylinder unit. Visually, the new Transporter is distinguished by its new frontal styling in line with the latest Volkswagen passenger cars and now also has added safety features such as ESP (Electronic Stabilisation Programme) regular across the range.
Simon Elliott, Director of Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, commented : ‘We’re very happy to hear that the Transporter is so admired with Miele and the technicians that drive it every day. We’re sure that the steps forward in quality and improvement of the latest models, combined with lower operating costs, will also be much appreciated .’
