• Daimler India clears BSIV stock

Daimler India Commercial Vehicles (DICV) has announced the clearance of its BSIV stocks. If a handful of vehicles are said to be left with its dealers nationwide, the company has been quite pro-active in setting a pace towards BSVI CVs. While it is likely that the dealers of the company would have pushed their BSIV stock in the wake of the conditional permission granted by the Supreme Court to sell 10 per cent of the CVs in the first 10 days of April 2020, the CV maker is said to have adjusted its production earlier on to move to BSVI vehicles. Claimed to have exported far more CVs under the Mercedes-Benz, Freightliner and Fuso brands of Daimler out of its Oragadam plant than the number of CVs it has sold in India, the company also announced the delivery of 120 trucks to CJ Darcl Logistics recently. These consist of BharatBenz 4023T tractors painted in a striking shade of blue. Adding to CJ Darcl Logistics’ fleet, which already has 112 BharatBenz trucks, the 120 4023T tractors feature Truckonnect telematics suite and the innovative Driver State Monitoring System (DSMS).
