GS Yuasa has announced a new partnership with Swift to supply leisure batteries for motorhomes and caravans. As part of the new agreement Yuasa will also sponsor the Swift Rally team in the MSA British Rally Championship

Team driver, Matt Edwards, won the championship last year by a massive 56-point margin, taking four victories along the way. The famous Yuasa logo will feature prominently on the car livery as the team look to successfully defend their title during 2019.

James Hylton, Managing Director of GS Yuasa Battery Sales UK Ltd, said, “It is a pleasure to join Swift’s stable of value added partners and to power so many getaways. Our relationship with Swift has evolved over the years to become one of trusted collaboration, with each benefiting from the other’s superb reputation.”

Nick Page, Swift Commercial Director, added, “We are delighted to enter into partnership with Yuasa and to extend the relationship to a higher footing. Today’s tourers and motorhomes feature more appliances and technology than ever to meet the demands of modern lifestyles, so it is vital that Swift supports this with the best power sources.” He added, “Our value added partners are carefully selected to ensure customers enjoy the highest quality products around, and we look forward to recommending Yuasa YBX Active Leisure and Marine batteries to new leisure vehicle owners.”
