Hyundai New Zealand CEO Andy Sinclair says the Staria is the latest in a long line of vehicles provided to the charity since 2005. “As a 100% Kiwi owned company, we are committed to supporting Kiwi communities. St John plays an essential role in delivering care to the New Zealand public, so we are pleased to help out in this way. The new Staria will be a valuable asset to St John’s, enabling them to transport supplies.”
St John relies on a wide-ranging fleet of vehicles to maintain its world-class emergency ambulance service.
