At the recent celebration of the Land Transportation Office’s 107th Founding Anniversary, one vehicle stood out as a shining example of the Modern Public Utility Vehicle or PUV: the Foton F-Jeepney.
As officials from the Department of Transportation (DOTr) were examining the Modern PUVs on display, their attention was drawn to the Foton F-Jeepney. DOTr Undersecretary Mark De Leon, LTFRB Chairman Chuck Delgra, and LTO Chief Assisant Secretary Edgar Galvante went inside the unit and lauded the modern and upgraded amenities present such as the spacious interior, high head room for standing passengers, high-tech gadgets, and cool air conditioning.
The Foton F-Jeepney was developed using the brand’s best-selling light duty truck, the Tornado 2.4C. The rear body was designed, manufactured, and assembled by Centro Manufacturing Corporation,
“We support Foton in its drive to provide the best possible Modern PUV with their F-Jeepney model. We know that Foton headed by their visionary President Rommel Sytin is aggressively setting its sight on getting a good share of the Modern PUV market. And with their professional team, capable dealership network, and good quality products, we are sure that they will be successful,” says Centro Manufacturing Vice-President Rommel Juan.
The LTO’s founding anniversary drew support across all sectors of the automotive industry and from major players with the Truck Manufacturers Association (TMA), Chamber of Automotive Manufacturers of the Philippines Inc. (CAMPI), Electric Vehicles Association of the Philippines (EVAP), Automotive Body Manufacturers Association of the Philippines, Philippine Parts Maker Association, and the Motorcycle Development Program Participants Association (MDPPA) putting on display their latest vehicles.
