Hyundai PH provides ‘care on wheels’ with Grand Starex Cargo Ambulance

MANILA: According to a recent World Bank study, additional investment in healthcare systems for “long COVID” is needed as a less expensive alternative to lockdowns. Given our experience for the past two years, having the local community prepared for a health emergency really pays off.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What makes the Hyundai Grand Starex Cargo an efficient ambulance?

    The Hyundai Grand Starex Cargo has the capabilities to meet the Department of Health (DOH) standards for a Type 1 ambulance with its notably roomy interiors, sleek yet durable body, drive power, and smooth handling.
  • What powers the Hyundai Grand Starex Cargo?

    It is powered by a 2.5 CRDi (Euro 4) engine paired to a six-speed manual transmission, which provides enough power to move the patients through congested areas while still saving fuel costs.
  • The World Health Organization (WHO) stated that there should be at least one ambulance for every 100,000 patients. Having an emergency medical service (EMS) unit on hand is not considered as a luxury anymore, but a practical solution to providing the public fast, efficient, responsive, and in some cases, more affordable life-saving services. Having at least a basic ambulance to service a local community, school, company, or neighborhood association is very essential.

    In a release, Hyundai Asia Resources, Inc. (HARI) said that the  Hyundai Grand Starex Cargo has the capabilities to meet the Department of Health (DOH) standards for a Type 1 ambulance with its notably roomy interiors, sleek yet durable body, drive power, and smooth handling.

    The signature dual sliding doors and twin-swing rear doors allow for rapid and easy boarding, loading, and unloading.

    The front-mounted engine helps reduce noise, vibration, harshness, and heat, while also absorbing the impact in case of a frontal collision, protecting the driver and front passengers. The anti-lock braking system (ABS) enables improved drive control, resulting in a smooth and safe ride for the passengers and equipment.
