Eicher Trucks & Buses (A business area of VECV) has introduced its most recent bus offering when it handed over the first lot of 10 Rear Engine Semi Low Floor (RESLF) city buses to Gujarat State Road Transport Corporation. The keys of the vehicles were delivered by G. Sekar, Senior Vice President (Sales & Marketing), Eicher Trucks & Buses to the Minister for Finance & Transport, Government of Gujarat, Vajubhai Vala at a grand function organised at the GSRTC depot in Gandhi Nagar “We are thankful to the Gujarat State Government, especially the management of GSRTC for reposing confidence in us and giving us the opportunity to partner in the growth of the state’s infrastructure,” said Sekar. These modern city buses have a rear engine and a low floor height which makes the ride more comfortable for the commuters.
