a joint venture, to form the company named Eicher Polaris Pvt Ltd. The
companies signed an agreement in July 2012, with an investment of 350 Crores
INR. Eicher is known for its frugal engineering proficiency and exhaustive
knowledge of the emerging markets.
Polaris is reputed for its world class capabilities and reliability. EPPL, in short, called as Eicher Polaris Pvt Ltd, has come up with the launch of the mini truck to meet the needs of individual businessmen in India.
For the individual business people
For understanding the need of a small pickup truck,
like Multix, it is essential to comprehend
the small business setup of India. The individual businessmen need to juggle
between family and business in a perfect way.
You will be astonished to see what they need from each asset they own, and how
resourceful they expect their assets to
be. They cannot at times afford time for family and friends, and expect family
and business to be part and parcel of
their every moment of life. Having said this, it is now easy to understand that
after owning Multix they would grab every opportunity that would save their
money and time in transportation.
Multix:
3-in-1 Approach
Known as “India’s first personal utility vehicle”
Multix was launched in the year 2015. It can be used as a cargo or people
carrier and as a power generator too. Multix is a 3-in-one pickup truck that would be considered a great
buy for every individual who owns a small business. For the price tag of less than 3 lakhs INR, there are 2 versions
available in this small pick up truck. These
are AX+ and MX.
Before going into details of anything else, there is
one attention grabbing feature that is rarely found in any pickup truck in the Indian market. It is the
only truck that has the X-Port feature. This means
it is the only vehicle that allows you to generate electricity. Yes, you got it right.
It is the first of its kind, and not the
one imagine like charging your mobile phone. It can generate a power of 3 KW whenever you need it. You can just fill the tank with diesel, and choose the
option to generate power. So, if the
garage lacks light when you are picking up the materials, use the truck to get
enough light.
The next feature of this 3-in-1 micro truck is that
you can use it as a car. This lets 5 people including the driver to sit
comfortably and travel even on the rough terrains. You can find it comfy for
all sorts of roads. If it is a picnic with friends or family of a small number,
then this truck fits perfectly to your needs. You can even connect it to your
toaster and munch on fresh sandwiches as it can generate electricity.
When you need to use it for business purposes, just fold the seats to get ample of space. You would be astonished to see the space it offers to carry goods, for its size. This is the 3rd feature, you can enjoy in this 3-in-1 truck.
Design and Components
The design and appearance are innovative and stylish.
It gives a look of a small car that is
cute when you view it from the front. It gets a
bold face with the headlight that has an edgy look. You don’t have to
worry about the pickup truck style, when
you use it as a car, for it has a soft top to defy this feature. This mini pickup truck has the 652 cc engine,
with the power of 13.4 PS@ 3000 rpm. The truck has the hydraulic disk brakes
for all the tires.
Conclusion
You can find the launch of new mini trucks from the joint venture of Eicher and Polaris
offered in 2 variants, MX and AX+, both fitting perfectly for the traffic
congested roads. They are available in bright colors, and with amazingly lower prices with no compromise in performance.
