About Us

Eicher Motors, was founded in 1982 to manufacture a range of reliable, fuel-efficient commercial vehicles of contemporary technology. The unit manufactures and markets commercial vehicles with Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) ranging from 5-25 tons.

Today, Eicher Motors is one of the leading manufactures of commercial vehicles in India with a 33% market share in the 7T-11T segment. The success and growth of this unit is a result of various customer-driven strategies. The manufacturing facility is situated in Central India – Pithampur, Madhya Pradesh. Eicher Motors has stepped  into the Heavy Commercial Vehicle segment with its state-of-the-art HCV, the "Eicher 20.16", the first commercial vehicle designed and developed indigenously.

Eicher Motors functions through a strong three-tier service network consisting of authorised distributors, service centres and company trained private mechanics. The vehicles are sold and serviced through a network of over 576 Authorized Contact Points all over India, supported by service centres and over 4500 company trained private mechanics, who are close at hand on all major highways throughout India to provide initial "first aid" to the vehicles if required.

In 1986, Eicher Motors entered into a technical and financial collaboration with Mitsubishi Motor Corporation of Japan to manufacture the Canter range of vehicles. The technical assistance agreement with Mitsubishi ended in March ‘94 after successful transfer of technology and on achieving total indigenisation with only a few parts sourced globally.
