New Delhi: VE Commercial Vehicles Ltd.

This achievement reflects the realization of a key vision set at the inception of the Volvo–Eicher joint venture and reinforces its strong growth momentum in the Indian commercial vehicle industry.
VECV’s strong performance was driven by strong demand across segments, with Light & Medium Duty (LMD) trucks contributing 47,789 units (46.1%), Heavy Duty (HD) trucks accounting for 26,867 units (25.9%), and the bus segment contributing 19,363 units (18.7%).
This milestone has been achieved on the back of VECV’s wide product portfolio, delivering solutions across diverse applications, combined with a sharp focus on best-in-class fuel efficiency, superior uptime and customer centricity. This achievement also reflects the strength of the partnership of Volvo Group and Eicher Motors. Since the JV’s inception in 2008, it has played a transformative role in redefining benchmarks across the commercial vehicle ecosystem by combining Volvo Group’s global leadership in advanced technology with Eicher Motors’ deep understanding of Indian market dynamics. Building on these strengths, VECV continues to drive the modernization of commercial transportation with its future-ready, sustainable solutions that enhance efficiency, productivity, and fleet performance.
Commenting on the occasion, B. Srinivas MD & CEO, VECV, said, “Crossing the milestone of 1,00,000 vehicles in a year is a significant achievement for VECV and reflects the trust our customers have placed in our products and solutions.
