Scania to deliver 200 trucks to Indian mining firm

Indian mining company BGR Mining & Infra has placed an order for 200 Scania P 410 tipper trucks, the Swedish manufacturer announced.

The Indian firm, which has headquarters in the city of Hyderabad, already has a fleet of 246 Scania vehicles.

“Scania P 410 tippers offer excellent performance and we are extremely satisfied with them,” said BGR Managing Director B. Umapathi Reddy.

“Since we started using these vehicles in our mining fields we have observed a clear increase in operational performance and efficiency,” he added.

Scania, headquartered in Södertälje, Sweden, has been present in the Indian market since 2007. In 2011, the company established Scania Commercial Vehicles India Pvt. Ltd, with a view to strengthen its presence in the country.

Scania has launched a range of on-road haulage truck models specially adapted for the Indian market, namely the R 500 6×4, the G 460 6×4 and the P 410 6×2. In the off-road segment, it offers P 410 8×4 mining tipper. Scania also has a partnership in the mining segment with Indian conglomerate Larsen & Toubro.
