veículos


Explanation:
Acho que trata-se mesmo de veículos comerciais. Se o seu original está em EN-US, "trucks" não quer dizer necessariamente "caminhão". Pode ser um veículo bem mais leve, como uma picape, utilitário ou caminhonete, que também são referidos pelo nome genérico de trucks.

viaturas da empresa


Explanation:
Se de facto "trucks" se aplicar a este contexto então será "viaturas da empresa", que engloba todo tipo de veículos que a empresa possa possuir (ligeiros/passageiros ou comerciais).

A minha sugestão vai no sentido do que se usa em Português de Portugal.

Example sentence(s):
  • repare no uso do termo "viatura" no contexto comercial: Vimos solicitar que nos informem em que tipo de viaturas pode uma empresa deduzir o IVA da compra, e ainda do gasóleo e reparações.
