In continuation with the Bus Show organised every alternate year to Auto Expo, the Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers (SIAM) will organise COMVECS, the Commercial Vehicle Show, at India Expo Mart, Greater-Noida, Uttar Pradesh, during March 1-3.
COMVECS 2017 will be a single platform where users can visit and explore various options in commercial vehicles like ambulances, school buses, Army vehicles, mining & industrial application vehicles, pick-up trucks, etc., apart from coaches, city buses and trucks. The Indian CV industry has emerged one of the most important in the world with the second highest bus production and the fifth highest trucks production. The Indian CV sector is poised for a major transformation in the coming months with BS-IV emission norms kicking in April 2017 and BS-VI in 2020 and more safety features, etc. The FAME scheme to provide impetus to electric & hybrid mobility also lays special emphasis on public transport and the CV sector.
Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Vishnu Mathur, SIAM Director General, said: “With the growth in the Indian economy, increasing public & private spending on infrastructure and higher penetration of financing facilities, we expect the growth in each sub-segment of commercial vehicles to continue in the coming years.”
The objective of this exclusive B2B show is to showcase the latest technological developments, providing manufacturers the right platform to interact with focused customers and better understanding of the requirements of different user segments.
