DUrable and RObust.
In 1993 the Swiss Army ordered initial batch of 2000 DUROs. Production commenced during the same year and first vehicles were delivered in 1994. Deliveries were completed in 1999. A second batch of 1 000 vehicles was subsequently ordered and deliveries were completed in 2001. In 2000-02 a small number of these vehicles, modified as firefighters, were exported to South Africa (14) and Singapore (61). Other operators are Venezuela (358) and Malaysia (57). In 2003 the Bucher company sold its transport vehicle unit, producing DURO trucks to MOWAG. During the same year MOWAG replaced the original DURO in production with an improved model, called the DURO II.
