Leveraging the Euro VI expertise of over six years, the newest range of Eicher vehicles will feature an efficient and reliable exhaust after-treatment system (EATS) and engine technology tested for over 5.6 million km.

The Uptime Centre at Pithampur will offer service support with a team of diagnostic experts offering Remote Diagnostics, Predictive Diagnostics and specialised field support to all BS-VI Eicher vehicles. This is in addition to the 24x7 Eicher On-Road Service (EOS) to provide highway assistance across the country. The team of experts is equipped to communicate in various languages including English, Hindi, Marathi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada and Malayalam.

To cater to the need of strengthening the ecosystem, the company has added new competence development centres and mobile training facilities taking the total to 18 such training delivery points. In addition, ?Uptime Enablement? of all workshops in the network is progressing rapidly to ensure the availability and adequacy of people, process and infrastructure to work effectively and deliver a superior uptime to customers in the BS-VI environment.

Speaking on the occasion, Vinod Aggarwal, Managing Director & CEO, VE Commercial Vehicles said, ?In line with our vision towards modernising commercial transportation, Eicher?s new BS-VI offering takes a lead in providing the most comprehensive and innovative solution for our customers.
