Blazo X From Mahindra

|December 2018
Mahindra Truck and Bus has upgraded the Blazo to carve out a bigger pie of the medium and heavy-duty market.
-
 
 In response to the requirements of customers, Mahindra Truck and Bus has upgraded the Blazo range of medium and heavy-duty trucks. The new range is called as Blazo X, and claimed to deliver five per cent higher efficiency. Coming in a backdrop of rising fuel prices, new axle norms and the lack of proportionate rise in freight rates, the new truck range is better poised to address the requiremets of the fleet operators. Subject to much calibration and light weighting as the market moved to BSIV emission norms April last year, the Blazo has been the main stay of the CV maker even as it pushes its new offering, the Furio, in the intermediate segment. Replacing the BSIV Blazo range that was well received in the market due to its ability to perform better and offer better fuel efficiency through three driving modes, the Blazo X marks yet another change. To replace the existing Blazo range across haulage, tipper and tractor-trailer segments according to Rajan Wadhera, President – Automotive Sector, Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd., the new truck range, apart from assuring superior fuel mileage, flaunts some cosmetic changes as well. Though subtle in nature, they include redesigned head lamps as part of an improved cabin. They are of the twin-beam variety and decidedly modern in their appearance.
