Pune : Daimler India Commercial Vehicles (DICV), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Daimler Truck, has expanded its footprint in Maharashtra with the inauguration of two new authorised BharatBenz dealerships in Talegaon (Pune) and Malegaon (Nashik district). Established in partnership with Autobahn Trucking, the new facilities are aimed at enhancing sales, service, and spares support across key industrial and logistics hubs in Western India.
Strategically located along high-activity freight routes, the Talegaon dealership is situated on NH48 (Mumbai–Bangalore highway), approximately 30 km from Pune Airport and 28 km from Pune Railway Station. The Malegaon facility, meanwhile, strengthens BharatBenz’s service reach across the industrial belt of Nashik district, catering to critical routes connecting Nashik, Dhule, Agra, Indore, and Mumbai.
The Talegaon facility stands out as one of the largest commercial vehicle workshops in Maharashtra, spread across 3 acres with a built-up area of nearly 40,000 sq. ft. Equipped with 16 service bays and full 3S (Sales, Service, Spares) capabilities, it can service up to 7,200 vehicles annually. The dealership is designed to cater to a wide range of customer segments, including logistics operators, construction fleets, and bus customers.
Complementing this, the Malegaon facility features two service bays and a parts distribution centre, supporting key segments such as tanker, bulker, and agricultural transport. Together, both locations ensure a customer reach time of under three hours across major highways, significantly improving service accessibility and uptime.
Commenting on the expansion, Rajiv Chaturvedi, President & Chief Business Officer, Daimler India Commercial Vehicles, said,
“Maharashtra’s rapidly growing industrial and logistics corridors require high vehicle availability and dependable after-sales support. The addition of these Autobahn Trucking facilities in Talegaon and Malegaon strengthens our network to over 450 touchpoints across India. These state-of-the-art workshops will enable faster turnaround, improved uptime, and a superior ownership experience for our customers.”
Mohamed Farzad, Managing Director, Autobahn Trucking, added, “With advanced infrastructure, a skilled workforce, and comprehensive service capabilities, we are committed to delivering dependable support to our customers. These strategically located facilities will primarily cater to tippers and construction vehicles, while the Talegaon dealership will also provide dedicated services for BharatBenz buses operating along the Mumbai–Bangalore corridor.”
Autobahn Trucking now operates 19 BharatBenz touchpoints across Maharashtra, strategically positioned along major national highways to ensure faster response times and efficient logistics support. The network currently serves over 10,000 BharatBenz vehicles, with a strong focus on construction and tipper segments that dominate demand in the region.
With this expansion, BharatBenz continues to reinforce its commitment to strengthening after-sales infrastructure and delivering enhanced uptime across India’s key freight corridors.
