Mahindra’s Truck and Bus Division (MTB), part of the Mahindra Group, has launched the Mahindra FURIO 8—its latest range of Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs). The series is supported by a mileage guarantee, offering customers the option to return the vehicle if it does not deliver higher mileage compared to their existing LCVs.
Manufactured at Mahindra’s Chakan facility in Maharashtra, the FURIO 8 comes in two variants—4-tyre cargo and 6-tyre cargo—suited for various business applications. The truck features a wider 7-foot loading area and offers load body lengths of 20 feet for the 4-tyre and 22 feet for the 6-tyre variant.
The truck is powered by Mahindra’s mDi Tech engine with Dual Mode FuelSmart technology, aimed at delivering mileage across different operating conditions. Additional features include Mahindra iMAXX telematics, which provides real-time tracking, vehicle health monitoring, and driver performance analytics.
Dr. Venkat Srinivas, Business Head, MTB & CE, added, “Mahindra FURIO 8 is engineered to deliver higher earnings, lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), minimal maintenance, and unmatched safety, comfort, and convenience – ensuring profit, peace of mind and higher prosperity for our customers.”
The FURIO 8 also comes with two service guarantees: a 36-hour workshop turnaround or ₹3,000 compensation per additional day, and a 48-hour breakdown recovery commitment or ₹1,000 for each delayed day.
Mahindra has positioned the FURIO 8 as a vehicle focused on reducing total cost of ownership while enhancing customer profitability. The truck will be supported by a nationwide network of over 400 service touchpoints.
