MTBD on track for BSVI

Turning around the negative market perception that its heavy trucks are dandy and powerful, but not as fuel-efficient, Mahindra Truck and Bus Division (MTBD) is on track to meet the BSVI emission norms. Announcing that it has emerged as the market leader in terms of mileage within the trucking industry with its Blazo range, the company is banking on a simplified BSVI to ensure that its customers are not burdened in an already demanding business environment. Working to carry forward almost 80 per cent of the 40000 components that make a truck to BSVI with the plethora of changes limited to the after-treatment level, the CV maker has announced that its Furio ICV (in the 12- and 14-tonne segment) has emerged as the number four-player in a short span of seven months. Using its 7.2-litre engine that powers the Blazo to achieve the distinct advantage of carrying over 80 percent of the components from its BSIV CVs to BSVI, MTBD has claimed that it is the number-three player in the haulage segment (multi-axle vehicle segment and tractor-trailer segment combined). Revealing that the dandy build of its trucks has provided it with an advantage of meeting the new axle norms, the CV maker is eyeing the number-three position in tippers.
