Thoroughbred horsepower of different shapes and sizes than normal was on display recently at Goffs Kildare Paddocks as DAF Trucks Ireland hosted the premiere of the New Generation DAF XF event.

The event provided customers in Ireland their first opportunity to get up close and personal with DAF Truck’s new award-winning game-changing new vehicle series. Various versions of the New Generation XF, XG and XG+, the reigning International Truck of the Year 2022, were exhibited and available for ride and drive demonstrations.

“The New Generation DAF XF, XG and XG+ have set a new standard in efficiency, safety and driver comfort. We were delighted to give customers the chance to get up close and behind the wheel of this outstanding new vehicle series. The event ran across Thursday, Friday and Saturday meaning transport professionals, truck enthusiasts and families all had the opportunity to engage with the new XF, XG and XG+. The reaction was overwhelming to say the least, with many orders taken, which was also very pleasing,” commented John McCann, DAF Trucks Ireland Sales Manager. The launch event also featured DAF presentations, the DAF Trucks Showtrekker hospitality trailer, static displays with refreshments served throughout the each day.

Fleet Transport captured the scene at the event.
