Daimler India Commercial Vehicles, a 100 per cent wholly owned subsidiary of Daimler AG, Germany, along with Mitsubishi Fuso Truck and Bus Corporation, Japan (MFTBC), a Daimler Company, has started shipping its DICV-made Fuso trucks to Indonesia, the key strategic market in Asia.
With the new range of trucks, the company aims to fuel additional momentum in the market where Fuso has established itself as the leading commercial vehicle brand, the company said in a statement.
Fuso has been termed the market leader in Indonesia with a market share of 45.4 per cent, and in the light duty truck segment served by the Colt Diesel, the company continues to prove its leadership position with a market share of 53.1 per cent during January to December 2013.
The company has sold over 280,000 units in Indonesia across light medium and heavy duty segments. Rigorous testing has been assessed under the most strenuous driving conditions to ensure maximum reliability of the trucks.
