Leading transportation service provider, Lee Ting San Group of Companies (LTS Group) has been named Malaysia’s Cargo Line A (CLA) Customer of the Year 2016 by MAN Truck and Bus.

LTS Group is largest container haulier in Malaysia and commands a fleet of close to 1,000 vehicles that support its nationwide and cross-border transportation services.

The company has a total of 90 MAN CLA trucks, 40 of which were acquired in 2016 and early this year, it has also expanded its fleet by 70 MAN TGS prime movers.

LTS Group was the only award recipient from Malaysia among other MAN award winners from the Latin America, Middle East, Africa and Asia Pacific regions.

This is the first year the CLA Customer of the Year recognition is presented to MAN’s biggest CLA customers worldwide.

LTS Group CEO Lee Kah Chye was among several senior representatives from 13 haulier, logistics and oil and gas companies from Malaysia that joined MAN Truck and Bus (M) Sdn Bhd to visit the world’s largest commercial vehicles trade show held in Hanover, Germany last month, followed by a visit to MAN’s manufacturing plant in Munich.

The 10,000 sqm exhibition space at the IAA was the stage for the company to showcase its TG model series which offers engines with new power levels, finely tuned transmissions as well as new interior and exterior design features.

Another highlight at the fair was MAN’s optimised engine programme that can help improve fuel consumption and ensure increased performance.

The company had also introduced the fully electric MAN Lion’s City articulated bus with different charging infrastructure concepts as well as an MAN TGS semitrailer tractor with electric drive for use in applications relating to inner-city night-time supply.

With altogether more than 5,500 trucks sold at the IAA, MAN has far exceeded its own expectations.

Sales expectations for the IAA were also exceeded in the bus sector with a total of more than 350 vehicles on the company’s order list.
