Otokar officially enters the Italian truck market with its light truck family, Atlas, appointing D.S.L. Autoveicoli as its distributor for truck sales in Italy. The company will showcase three versions of its Atlas 11 truck at the Logistica Trasporti E Servizi (LTS) Expo Napoli.
Otokar, a member of the Koç Group, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, continues its steady growth in European markets with its wide product portfolio. Having maintained a strong presence in the Italian bus market for many years, Otokar is now expanding its presence in the country with the launch of its truck sales operations.
As part of this expansion, Otokar has partnered with D.S.L. Autoveicoli as its authorized distributor for truck sales in Italy. The partnership was officially launched during the LTS Expo Napoli exhibition, where three versions of the Atlas 11 will be on display.

We have been exporting light trucks to European Union countries through our own distribution network, we closely monitor logistics and municipal service requirements in different countries.
