Isuzu PH Strengthens Menorian Movers’ Fleet with New Heavy-Duty Tractor Heads
September 23, 2026, Bacoor, Cavite — Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC), together with dealer partner Isuzu Bacoor, recently turned over four new Isuzu heavy-duty tractor heads to Menorian Movers, Inc., strengthening the trucking and logistics company’s hauling capabilities with three Isuzu EXR77H units and one Isuzu EXZ77N.
The four Isuzu trucks will replace selected surplus tractor heads within Menorian’s existing fleet of 41 units and will be deployed in its trailer hauling operations. By introducing brand-new heavy-duty vehicles into its fleet, Menorian aims to strengthen the reliability and availability of its trucks, helping the company consistently meet the hauling requirements of its customers.
Part of the Menorian Group of Companies, Menorian Movers is a trucking and logistics service provider catering to customers with varied cargo and hauling requirements. In 2001, the company expanded its fleet with tractors and closed vans, enabling it to offer Full Container Load (FCL) and Less-than-Container Load (LCL) services. Tractor heads and trailers continue to play an important role in their trucking operations today.
“Isuzu has been a reliable partner of logistics companies through the years, and we understand the heavy-duty demands of their operations. Businesses that regularly handle demanding hauling requirements need commercial vehicles with the power and capability to take on the job reliably. We are confident that the Isuzu EXR77H and EXZ77N will help Menorian Movers strengthen its hauling capabilities and continue delivering the dependable service its customers expect,” said IPC Department Head for Dealer Sales Mario Ojales.
For Menorian Movers President Marilou Menor, the addition of the four Isuzu tractor heads represents more than a fleet investment, reflecting the company’s continued growth and commitment to its customers. “For me, these four new trucks are more than just additional assets for our company. They represent growth, trust, opportunity, and our commitment to serving our valued clients. We are happy that Isuzu is part of our journey, and we look forward to continuing to move forward together,” said Menor.
Heavy-Duty Trucks with Power and Reliability to Keep Goods Moving
Menorian’s decision to acquire the Isuzu EXR77H and EXZ77N to replace selected surplus tractor heads builds on its positive experience with their existing EXR51 and NPR units, which have demonstrated the durability and reliability required in its day-to-day operations, having been used regularly in their fleet for the past ten to thirteen years. In selecting its brand-new tractor heads, Menorian also considered the power required for its trailer hauling operations, further reinforcing its decision to invest in Isuzu.
Both the Isuzu EXR77H and EXZ77N are powered by the 6UZ1-TCG50 diesel engine, delivering a maximum output of 279 kW at 2,000 rpm and maximum torque of 1,765 Nm at 1,200 to 1,500 rpm. The high torque output provides the pulling power needed for loaded trailers and demanding heavy-duty hauling applications. Further supporting this capability, the EXR77H offers a Gross Combination Mass (GCM) of 45,000 kg, while the EXZ77N offers 60,000 kg, giving Menorian options to address varying hauling requirements.
As Menorian introduces brand-new units into its fleet, the trucks also bring safety and driver-support features available in Isuzu’s S&E Series, including an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) and an and an instrument meter with multi-information display, giving drivers convenient access to key vehicle information while on the road. These features complement the trucks’ heavy-duty capability by supporting drivers in the safe and efficient operation of the vehicles.
Fleet renewal also goes hand in hand with Menorian’s strong emphasis on vehicle maintenance and upkeep. As its trucking operations have grown, the company has expanded its own maintenance team and facilities to support the needs of its fleet. The acquisition of brand-new Isuzu tractor heads adds another advantage to this approach by giving Menorian access to manufacturer-backed aftersales support.
Through Isuzu Bacoor and Isuzu’s nationwide dealer network, Menorian gains access to dedicated service and parts support for its new units, helping maximize vehicle uptime and maintain their long-term performance and road-readiness.
Owned and operated by Iconic Dealership, Inc. (IDI) under AC Mobility, Isuzu Bacoor also reaffirmed its commitment to supporting Menorian beyond the turnover of the new units. IDI Isuzu Brand Head Eric Wambangco expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership and the dealership’s continued support for Menorian’s operations. “As long as Menorian is using the trucks, we should be beside them. We look forward to being a partner for a long time,” said Wambangco.
Ultimately, strengthening the trucks behind Menorian’s operations also strengthens the service it can provide to the businesses it serves. Through the addition of the EXR77H and EXZ77N, backed by the support of IPC and Isuzu Bacoor, Menorian is renewing an essential part of its working fleet with heavy-duty vehicles equipped for the demands of its business today and supported for the years ahead. With a capable and dependable fleet on the road, Menorian is better positioned to keep its customers’ goods moving.
