What are the new product launches you've just unveiled?
We've launched five upgraded models in the excavator category under the SmartX Series Plus, specifically targeting the highly competitive 20-ton segment, which accounts for nearly 70% of the Indian market. Additionally, we've introduced two BS5-compliant wheel loader models—a 3-ton and a 5-ton variant—that together represent approximately 90% of the demand in this category, with roughly 4,000 to 4,500 units sold annually.
These are facelifts of our previous Smart Plus series excavators, representing a significant evolution driven by extensive customer feedback and market insights gathered through a bottom-up approach involving our dealers, sales teams, and end-users across diverse work environments.
What are the key technological advancements in these new models?
