According to the companies, this five-year partnership will enable both companies to offer European Ford Trucks fleet managers high-quality products and services tailored to the specific needs of vehicles and local markets. The first phase of this partnership covers 26 countries across Europe, aiming to provide innovative solutions in the region.

As a matter of fact, a specially formulated engine oil for Ford Trucks has been made available for use in the maintenance of Ford Trucks Ecotorq engines.
