Daimler India Commercial Vehicles Pvt. Ltd. today announced the inauguration of a new BharatBenz sales, service and spare parts facility. This has come up in Leh, the capital city of the Ladakh region. Spread over an area of 1,000 square feet, the ‘PAL Trucking’ facility, situated on the Manali-Leh highway, is now the highest-altitude 3S facility of BharatBenz in the country. The state-of-the-art 3S facility gets equipped with six well-trained technicians as well as two Mobile Service Vans. These vans will support BharatBenz Customers in and around Leh, Pangong, Shyok, Nubra Valley, Siachen, Janskar, Kargil, Hanle, and Chushul regions.
BharatBenz mentioned that its trucks’ capability, reliability and comfort have won them many customers. Many of these are present in the challenging, high-altitude terrain of the Ladakh region. Thus, this partnership with PAL Trucking extends the support with a new facility. Pal Trucking has rapidly expanded its presence in the Jammu & Kashmir region, that too in a short period of time.
The total count of the touchpoints now stands at five sales and service touchpoints. The company also mentioned an increase in demand for their heavy-duty trucks in the J&K region. BharatBenz products have proven their mettle in the harshest conditions and, at the same time, consistently contributed to the infrastructure development of our country. With this new outlet, Bharat Benz’s network footprint increases to 280 touchpoints across the country.
BharatBenz currently has nearly a hundred trucks of various configurations operating in the Ladakh region. It is also one of the reasons why they are becoming increasingly popular amongst Indian customers. Furthermore, with their proven high standard of safety, low cost of ownership and reliability in tough environments, BharatBenz is now becoming a tough competitor to beat. This BharatBenz 3S facility on the strategic Manali-Leh highway will also aim to reduce service time so as to achieve more vehicle uptime.
