Our History - Terrain Tamer

history bustSi echamos la vista atrás, encontraremos un antiguo vehículo Thornycroft siendo desmantelado en 1936 y sus ejes traseros y transmisión siendo instalados en un Leyland Badger.

Why? Because this modification allowed the now famous mailman ‘Tom Kruse’ to complete the world’s most remote mail run through Outback Australia for the next 25 years.

Pioneros como Tom, que tuvieron que depender de vehículos lo suficientemente resistentes para atravesar nuestro terreno accidentado, fueron quienes abrieron las puertas de nuestro país.

Since the 1960’s, our company has learnt from these pioneers – sometimes the hard way. While every vehicle has its strengths, they all have weaknesses that can stop them in their tracks without a care for location.

We’ve learnt what works well and how we can strengthen a vehicle to ensure safe passage through our dangerous yet beautiful landscape.

Over the years, the knowledge we have shared with our customers has manifested itself into a unique range of over 60,000 4WD Regiones.

They are the culmination of 60 years of engineering, testing and manufacture that has allowed us to assist other regions of the world, such as África, Sudamerica, Central Asia and the polar regions.
