Volvo Group is going to
launch its UD range of buses in India, which will be positioned between its premium products under
rear-engine range and conventional
offerings for the mass market. The price range of these buses will be between Rs. 25 lakh and Rs. 80 lakh.
This UD range of buses under Volvo brand will be including both city buses and coaches. While a 12-metre low-floor city bus is expected to debut in India by the end of 2014, the coach version of the same-sized bus will be launched in 2015.
After acquiring Nissan Diesel, a Japanese CV maker, Volvo bagged the UD brand while concentrating majorly on the trucks and putting a halt on its UD branded buses' production in 2010. Hence, the launch of this range in India will represent the renewal of its bus operation under the brand.
