Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) lent out additional units of Isuzu NLR and QKR to the Department of Transportation in order to provide more vehicles that will be utilized to transport healthcare and frontline workers amid the health crisis.
The public utility vehicles (PUVs) from IPC will be turned over to the authorized operators for their deployment to 19 specified routes in Luzon, where the extended enhanced community quarantine has been enforced until April 30.
Meanwhile, IPC’s dealerships have also provided their own Isuzu vehicles to help out frontliners amid the pandemic. Isuzu Inteco lent their PUVs to transport healthcare workers and frontliners in the vicinity of Caloocan and Quezon City for free. Additionally, Isuzu Iloilo provided a D-Max for the city hospital’s use while Isuzu-BMD Motors provided relief goods
In his message, IPC president Hajime Koso said: “With this additional vehicle support, we at IPC hope that our dedicated and enduring heroes in the hospitals would find comfort and safety in their transport. Through our vehicles, we can help them fight the virus more efficiently and effectively.”
Prior to this, IPC also lent out an Isuzu D-Max, Isuzu mu-X and Isuzu PUVs last March 27 to provide vehicles that will transport frontliners in Biñan and Sta. Rosa Laguna.
