This is in addition to the facility of effective home-tutorial videos, thus making the training program productive and effective. Speaking on the occasion, Debasish Satpathy, Vice President – Automotive Aftermarket, Schaeffler India, said: “We recognise that vehicle technology is getting more complex with passing time. Technical training plays an increasingly important role in supporting garage professionals in dealing with these challenges. We believe in providing a wide range of training facilities to garages to skill up the existing ones and focus on skill development of the new and upcoming ones.”

“The mobile training centre, i.e., REPXPERT Truck is equipped with all engine, transmission and chassis products and tools along with professionally trained service personnel who will be providing hands-on-training, especially in demand in Tier II and III cities. The training provided at the mobile training centre will not only help garages to do professional repair and fitment but also make them future-ready,” he added. The mobile training facility will provide customers with various types of training across transmission, engine and the chassis system. “Among our technical programs are facilities like special fitment tools, standards fitment practices, failure diagnosis, product demonstrations, tutorial videos and the Schaeffler product portfolio,” Satpathy said.
