After many successful years of working together, Penske Australia & New Zealand and DEUTZ Australia & New Zealand are bringing their partnership to a close.

Representing the DEUTZ engine portfolio across the industrial, mining, power generation and agricultural sectors, Penske’s team will continue to supply DEUTZ engines until mid-January. Customers will be taken through a comprehensive handover process to ensure a smooth transition. 

“We have proudly represented the DEUTZ engine portfolio across a range of industries and to a range of customers over several years,” said Matthew Smith, executive general manager of off-highway, Penske Australia & New Zealand. 

“We intend to focus our people on higher power nodes and future technologies. We thank DEUTZ for a successful partnership and wish the team all the best.”

DEUTZ Australia CEO Craig Chamberlin said a full handover program would be implemented to deliver seamless customer support.  

“Through this transition period and beyond, existing and new DEUTZ customers will receive thorough support through the DEUTZ representative network across Australia and New Zealand,” said Craig. 

“On behalf of the DEUTZ team, I’d like to thank Penske for their partnership over many successful years, and we wish them all the best. We look forward to a smooth and efficient transition for all our customers.”
