Orlando, Florida (February, 2014). Last weeks’ American Rental Association trade show held in Orlando Florida, is the largest rental show in the county, routinely drawing crowds in excess of 10,000. Over 8,000 rental companies are represented by ARA, as well as over 1,000 manufacturers and suppliers. This year’s show featured over 675 exhibitions and attendance was at an all-time high. Doosan Industrial Vehicle America Corp. participated in the exhibition, alongside Doosan sister companies: Doosan Portable Power, Bobcat, and Doosan Infracore Construction Equipment. Together the Doosan brand was certainly in prominent display. Doosan Industrial Vehicle America Corp. had an impressive display of pneumatic trucks, including a D25S-7 with its newly launched G2 engine. This engine cuts exhaust emissions dramatically and offers increased fuel efficiency, while still supplying greater horsepower and torque than its previous version. Also on display was a dual fuel model G25P and a diesel powered D45, as well as our recently introduced walkie and walkie stacker electric trucks. The DIVAC booth was crowded with customers, eager to learn more about Doosan and its products as well as requesting quotations for immediate equipment needs.
