Volvo expects to double the operation in the plant outside Bangalore in the next two years, that will involve new facilities for refurbishment operations and an expansion of the paint shop.
Volvo Buses managing director of India Akash Passey said this is not something we do alone, it is their customers, such as VRL, who are actually affecting this change on the field. These are not bus operators as we know them, but emerging corporate houses backed by a modern, professional and customer-focused approach, Passey said. We see the establishing of key concepts that will drive future progress - long-haul luxury travel is getting segmented with higher demands and the country is clear about its ambition of making public transport a key tool for sustainable cities.
