GITI Tyres Big Test: Fresh Produce
Fresh produce is the Big Test theme this month – and it’s of equal relevance to the cargo and the new truck doing the work.
FAW is New Zealand’s newest heavy-duty truck brand. The acronym is short for First Automotive Works – which explains the prominent number one on the company logo framed by the wings of a hawk.
And like the majority of new brands appearing in the automotive industry over recent years, the manufacturing source is The People’s Republic of China.
