Kalmar Motor AB

We welcome our new Service Manager, Tommy, to the team! To further restructure and strengthen our service department, we have made a restructuring that means our current Service Manager, Bengt, will transition to the role of Technical Service Advisor. This will allow Bengt to fully focus on supporting our customers and our support team with his deep technical expertise. Tommy is looking forward to getting to know all our customers, developing relationships, and forging new connections. With this addition to our team, we can strengthen our support to deliver a high level of service while building an even stronger organization for the future. We are excited about this continued development and the opportunities this change brings! 🚀  

Last week we had the absolute pleasure of welcoming Aer Lingus, M50 and Adapt-GSE to the Kalmar Motor facility in Kalmar, Sweden. A most enjoyable 'Planes, Trains and Automobile's' journey to complete the pre-delivery inspection of four new TBL100E's. These additional TBL100E's will further enhance the electrification of the Aer Lingus pushback tractor fleet at both Dublin and Cork International Airports.
