In total, Gebr. Kuoni Transport AG owns 84 vehicles, around 95 percent bear the star. The newest fleet member is the Mercedes-Benz Antos 1836 L 4×2 (Euro VI engine, 360 hp, 1800 Nm), a special production.
Branch manager Clau Caviezel: "The Antos has become slimmer. This means that its width is tailored to the narrow streets and winding village structures in mountainous regions. The Antos is extremely practical, the handling simple and well thought-out, also thanks to the wear-free secondary water retarder. Moreover, it offers a high level of ride comfort and the PowerShift 3 automated manual transmission shifts quickly, while at the same time the vehicle can be driven with low gearshifts."
