Prevost Commercial Customer Training in full swing for the remainder of 2018
(August 16, 2018, Sainte Claire, QC) The extensive training regimen and annual events Prevost extends to customers on its H-Series and X-Series and the Volvo 9700 coaches reflect the company’s commitment to stand behind its quality vehicles and provide incomparable customer service.
