Frio Express formalized an order for 100 Scania R 460 trucks , as part of its fleet renewal and strengthening strategy, after evaluating the results obtained with the first 10 units of the Swedish brand.
With this acquisition, the Mexican transport company will reach a total of 110 Scania units , in an operation that also includes maintenance and after-sales service solutions adapted to its needs.
The decision was supported by the performance of the first vehicles incorporated, particularly in fuel economy, operational efficiency and safety technologies, including the retarder auxiliary braking system, advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and disc brakes.
“We decided to take this step towards 100 additional units because the first 10 demonstrated in practice what we seek at Frio Express: outstanding fuel performance, maximum operational efficiency and high safety standards backed by cutting-edge technology,” said José Ramón Medrano, CEO of Frio Express.
The executive highlighted that the acquisition is part of a long-term alliance with Scania, supported by an after-sales scheme that will operate at the carrier’s own facilities.
As part of the agreement, Frio Express will have certified technicians trained by Scania specialists in its workshop, in addition to a consignment parts warehouse, managed by the manufacturer’s personnel.
For his part, Alejandro Mondragón, president and CEO of Scania Mexico, highlighted that the expansion of the fleet responds to the results obtained by the carrier during the operation of the first units.
“In addition to the trucks, we support our customers with after-sales solutions that meet their maintenance and availability needs. We want to continue building long-term relationships, with close and appropriate support for each operation,” he stated.
The agreement was formalized during FENATRAN 2026, a road freight transport fair held in São Paulo, Brazil.
