The IVECO Daily 7-Ton has been named the Rigid Truck of the Year at the 2021 Fleet News Awards.

The annual Fleet News Awards this year took place at Ascot Racecourse in the UK and for the first time also incorporated the Commercial Fleet Awards to celebrate distinction across the hugely varied fleet sector.

The judges, made up of a panel of key industry market makers and the Fleet News editorial team, remarked,?this seven-ton model comes in a variety of powertrains including diesel and CNG options, and body configurations, making it a clear winner. Flexible, manoeuvrable and with an impressive payload, it?s clear to see why the Daily 7-Ton is a very popular vehicle with fleet operators.?

Sitting at the top of the most comprehensive gross vehicle weight range on the market, Daily 7-Ton can offer operators up to 4900kgs (chassis cab) in payload on its tough C-shaped ladder frame chassis. Stretching from 16m3 to 19.6m3, panel van variants of Daily 7-Ton present an ideal base for load carrying or conversions.
