“Achieve the Highest Mileage or Return the Truck” — such a statement definitely turns heads for a certain reason. Mahindra Truck and Bus (MTB), a division of the Mahindra Group, has launched the Furio 8 LCV range in India, and is focusing on not just performance, but an effective way for transport operators to run a profitable operation.
What Makes Furio 8 Stand Out?
Aimed at small and mid-sized businesses that rely on efficiency and dependability, the Mahindra Furio 8 now comes with serious upgrades and an unprecedented guaranteed mileage offer. If customers are not satisfied with its fuel economy, Mahindra will take the truck back. Are they crazy? No, these are valid developments that underscore a clearly tremendously confident company.
