DAF Trucks Arrives Strong at the 24th Edition of Fenatran, Promising to Change the Game in the Construction, Mining, and Timber Sectors! The company, which has already consolidated its presence in Brazil, presents at the fair, the largest road transport event in Latin America, held at São Paulo Expo from November 4 to 8, a new line of vehicles that promises to meet the demands of these segments with precision and robustness.

At the center of attention is the highly anticipated DAF Vocational Line, which expands the CF family with vehicles specialized for off-road operations. This launch from DAF Trucks marks the brand’s definitive entry into the mining and construction sectors, with models designed specifically to tackle uneven terrain and withstand severe conditions.

The New DAF Vocational Line

During Fenatran, DAF Trucks presented the CF Mining, the CF Construction, and the CF Forestry, each developed for a strategic sector. The CF Mining, with 6×4 and 8×4 configurations and PACCAR MX-13 engine, is aimed at intensive operations in mines, where strength and durability are crucial.

Investment in Expansion and Quality in After-Sales

With a solid growth strategy, DAF Trucks ends the year with positive numbers and ambitious expansion plans. Since its arrival in Brazil in 2013, DAF has established itself as one of the top five manufacturers in the sector, reinforcing its network of dealers and enhancing after-sales service.

The goal is to reach 75 service points by the end of 2024, expanding the assistance network to support growing demand, especially in the construction and mining sectors.

To facilitate the maintenance of large fleets, DAF launched the DAF Multi-Support Ultra, a package that allows efficient cost control through a fixed monthly fee based on mileage. In addition, DAF Trucks also offers the DAF Mobile Workshop, a preventive and corrective maintenance service on-site, tailored to the specific needs of clients in the construction and mining sectors.

Sustainability and Innovation: Electric Trucks and Hydrogen

The commitment to a sustainable future was also highlighted at the DAF Trucks stand. The company is investing in electric trucks, with an impressive range of up to 500 km, in addition to testing hybrid vehicles and developing fuel cell engines focused on hydrogen. These innovations show that DAF Trucks is not only looking at the present of the construction and mining sectors but also at a future with zero emissions.

With these initiatives and launches, DAF Trucks makes it clear that it intends to be a reference in solutions for the mining, construction, and timber segments, combining robustness, innovation, and sustainability. The brand continues its growth trajectory and bets on a diversified portfolio that meets multiple demands of the Brazilian market.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

BRICS is preparing a payment system inspired by the Brazilian PIX that will allow direct transactions between countries using national digital currencies without relying on the dollar or Western banks as intermediaries.

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows in Argentine Patagonia the exact point where a colossal glacier, a turquoise-blue lake, and a greenish arm of water meet, creating one of the rarest and most impressive landscapes in the region.

35 countries spent more than 20 billion euros to build the largest nuclear fusion reactor in the world in southern France — the main magnet is so powerful that it could lift an aircraft carrier, and the plasma reaches 150 million degrees.

Scientists have discovered in space the largest organic molecule ever found among the stars, a structure of 13 atoms that could be the “missing link” between the chemistry of the cosmos and the origin of life on Earth.

In the United States, 99% of all new electric capacity in 2026 will be from solar, wind, and batteries — totaling 86 GW in a single year, the largest jump since 2002, while natural gas accounted for only 7%.

The ‘artificial sun’ of China did what physicists said was impossible — it maintained stable plasma at densities that exceed the theoretical limit and took a real step towards unlimited fusion energy.

Instead of torpedoes, American submarines will now launch autonomous drones through the same tubes — and when the drone reaches the surface, it transmits everything the submarine sees at the bottom of the ocean.
