Daimler AG controls 85% of Mitsubishi and now it is using this stake to bring Mitsubishi’s Fuso range of trucks to India in 2010. These trucks will be manufactured in Daimler’s Chennai plant and are expected to have over 80% localisation. Meanwhile, here are a few brief facts about the Mitsubishi Fuso range of light trucks. The Fuso range of light trucks hae excellent cabins which will make driving them fatigue free for the drivers.

The trucks will have responsive diesel engines with various capacities depending on the application. Six speed automatic transmissions are standard with the gear shift lever mounted on the dash. Disc brakes and ABS too are bog standard on all trucks and the engines feature the revolutionary Bluetec from Mercedes to make them ultra efficient while emitting very low emissions. Judging by these developments in the CV space, 2010 is soon becoming a landmark year for the Indian CV market.
