Scania’s Ecolution customers’ drivers are now getting the recognition that they deserve through the launch of the annual ’A Good Driver’ Truck & Bus Competition (AGD) that will run from 1 December 2021 to 30 November 2022.
‘A Good Driver’ is a truck or bus driver from ’A Good Company’. The drivers automatically qualify as long as they are part of the Scania Ecolution partnerships and drive the specific vehicles under the programme. The vehicles they drive is already marked with a Scania Ecolution sticker. The drivers will get a t-shirt with AGD Qualifier Badge to begin with.
To win, a good driver’s driving must result in the best percentage of km/l improvement throughout the duration. This can be tracked using Scania Fleet Management System. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners will then be crowned with a certificate and a host of attractive Scania premium prizes. The best that drives consistently in a safe, fuel-efficient and environmentally-friendly way will get the Champion Jacket with AGD Champion Badge. Corresponding companies to the winners get service vouchers worth MYR5,000/3,000/1,000 respectively. For more information and the terms & conditions of AGD can be found at www.scania.com.my.
