Daimler India Commercial Vehicles (DICV) in association with Trident Trucking today inaugurated a new 3S state-of-the-art BharatBenz dealership in Attibele, Karnataka, which will cater to BharatBenz trucks and buses. The new network touchpoint is owned and operated by Trident Trucking, which has seven other BharatBenz outlets out of the total 14 in Karnataka state.

With this, our 236th touchpoint, we are already down to 140km. It is our continuous endeavour to be present wherever our customers need us; our fast-growing network demonstrates our confidence in the Indian market.”
Trident Trucking's Sameer Chaudhary said: “We are delighted to partner with BharatBenz once again with our new state-of-the-art BharatBenz dealership at Attibele. This will be our eighth BharatBenz dealership in India. We are fully ready to ensure that our customers experience superior sales and aftersales service at our new dealership.”
The new and 236th touchpoint is the largest BharatBenz 3S facility (sales, service, spares) in the South zone with 24 mechanical bays, six accident bays, and an exclusive paint shop.
