India currently has a fleet of 2.8 million trucks, which contribute to 60% of emissions.

The company places emphasis on attaining the most cost-effective ownership experience for its customers.

At the core of Tresa’s trucks lies the FLUX350 Axial Flux Motor technology, which delivers up to 350 kW of continuous power and is the only Indian OEM with this power output. Axial Flux motors are known for their compact size and lightweight nature.

This approach highlights its dedication to developing and creating products through a foundation of fundamental principles.
