Modec wins top prize at Work Truck Show in Atlanta

Modec achieved a stunning victory at the Work Truck Show in the US last month winning the Editors’ Choice Award for New Product Innovation. The organisers and journalists at the show give out one award a year and this year the prestigious award went to Modec.

The convention boasted more than 7,000 attendees involved in buying, selling or using work trucks and equipment. Attendees took advantage of the opportunity to meet with more than 530 industry suppliers, participate in over 40 educational sessions and see the latest developments in hybrid and alternative fuels technologies.

Visitors to the show were impressed by Modec’s zero emissions electric vehicle that is designed from the ground up for operation in urban environment, especially once they encountered the ride and drive opportunity. Attendees and judges commented on how the Modec driving experience is enhanced by light controls, a command driving position, superb visibility and class leading manoeuvrability.

Modec delivered a conference presentation, was selected as one of a handful of companies to give an NTEA sponsored PR event conducted, public 'on-road' ride and drives, and had a vehicle in a booth on the trade show floor.

The Modec team are very excited about the award and equally as pleased by the positive reaction to the vehicles in the US.
