International lands major deal with leasing company
LISLE, Ill. — International has secured a large supply deal with a major leasing company.
The company says it has reached a deal to provide 1,050 new Class 8 on-highway tractors. The leasing company intends to order an additional 7,950 trucks later this month, for delivery through the end of 2017, according to the truck maker.
The trucks will primarily be International ProStar and LoneStar tractors powered by the Cummins ISX15 engine.
“Customers continue to recognize that the heavy-duty products we are building today are among the best we have built in decades, with uptime and fuel economy performance that leads the industry,” said Bill Kozek, president, Navistar Truck and Parts. “This customer has experienced our new products first-hand and their International models are leading the way in fuel economy performance when compared to competitive models.”
