The fleet of ITT Logistics, which regularly invests in Renault Trucks vehicles every year, consists of Renault Trucks tow trucks with its latest purchases.

The first 10 vehicles were delivered to ITT Logistics Founding President Tekin Öztanık and General Manager Didem Öztanık within the scope of the new purchase. Renault Trucks Turkey Sales Director Ömer Bursalıoğlu, Renault Trucks Regional Manager Tolga Aykaç, Koçaslanlar Automotive Chairman Mahmut Koçaslan, General Manager Mesut Süzer, After Sales Services Director İsmail Alkan and Renault Trucks Financial Services Regional Sales Manager Çağrı Ayduğan attended the ceremony. It is reported that the remaining 15 vehicles will be delivered by September.
ITT Logistics Founding President Tekin Öztanık said, “We reach our goals with an organic growth every year. Compared to 2020, we recorded a growth of over 25 percent in the first half-year, and our target is to close the year with 30 percent growth. In this direction, we are both renewing and strengthening our vehicle park. Since 2015, we were planning to make our fleet a single brand with Renault Trucks, and we succeeded. Our satisfaction with Renault Trucks vehicles and after-sales services, and having a single-brand fleet will make our operations even easier.” by drawing attention to its regular growth strategies.

For this reason, we continue our transportation operations with Renault Trucks in an extremely efficient manner.” while stating that they evaluated the pandemic period by investing in new business development models and service areas such as storage, warehouse, tank rental, and maintenance.
Contribution to sustainability through fuel savings with Renault Trucks
Tekin Öztanık mentions that with Renault Trucks tow trucks, they save at least 2 points of fuel; “When we consider our entire fleet, it means that we can save 170,000 liters of fuel annually. This is a saving that cannot be underestimated in terms of carbon emissions and footprints. Of course, it also provides an advantage in terms of cost, but it is also of great importance for our Company's sustainable policies. On the other hand, the fact that all of our vehicles are Euro 6 supports this situation. Even in Europe, there are only a few companies whose fleets consist of Euro 6 vehicles in the field we serve."
Young fleet of ITT Logistics
The vehicles in ITT's fleet offer service with an average age of 3 years. This means trouble-free, efficient, and environmentally-friendly vehicles. ITT Logistics is also very satisfied with the second-hand value of Renault Trucks tow trucks.

The comfort of the driver is very important in the transportation of hazardous goods. Didem Öztanık explains as follows: “We regularly increase our workforce to respond to demands in line with our growth strategies. Today, when it is difficult to find a qualified driver, we attach importance to the equipment of the vehicles to both protect the qualified driver and minimize driver-related errors. In this direction, we also consider the satisfaction of our drivers with the comfort and performance of the vehicles. All of our drivers are very happy to be on the road with Renault Trucks tractors.”
