Daimler India Commercial Vehicles (DICV) plans to export light-to-medium-duty trucks and set the pace for more “built in India” products in the future.
Under the Asian strategy, DICV which is cooperating with Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation, Japan (MFTBC) under the umbrella of Daimler Trucks Asia, launched its robust DICV-made Fuso trucks in South Africa. This is the company’s 14th market since it started exports in May 2013.
The robust, fuel-efficient truck is developed to meet customer expectations in the South African market. DICV is known for making trucks in India under the brand name Bharat-Benz.
While DICV focuses on the Indian market with its brand Bharat-Benz and caters to countries such as Nepal, MFTBC will service rising demand in the Asian and African regions with its existing portfolio of Mitsubishi-Fuso trucks from its plant in Kawasaki and the robust Fuso trucks produced in Oragadam.
