Located in McDougalls Hill, Singleton, Penske Power Systems will support the region with AWD products focussed on the mining industry.
“The appointment of Penske Power Systems as a dealer of Western Star Trucks and MAN Truck & Bus in the Hunter region is a continuation of our strategy to provide customers with the best experience and support,” said Kevin Dennis, managing director of Penske Commercial Vehicles.
“We identified an opportunity in the market to service customers in the region, particularly in the mining industry, extending the existing relationships that Penske Power Systems already has.
“Having serviced the on-highway region with the MTU, Detroit, and Allison Transmission brands for over 20 years, Penske Power Systems has a great understanding of the local market and has the supporting infrastructure in place, backed by a broader national network of branches, giving customers peace of mind that they will always receive the best of care.”
Refurbishment works are underway at the branch including additional office space, increased parking for trucks and trailers, redirection of traffic around the branch to create improved access to the workshop and service bays, as well as a new truck display area.
