Inducted into the BEST fleet for Mumbai commuters

Force Traveller Smart Citibus was inducted into the B.E.S.T. fleet for Mumbai commuters' last mile connectivity from metro and local stations. The first lot of 5 Traveller Smart Citibuses (a part of 500 such Smart Citibuses planned by B.E.S.T) were flagged off and dedicated to the Mumbai commuters at a grand ceremony by Uddhav Thackeray - President, Shiv Sena in the presence of local dignitaries and B.E.S.T officials.

The fully air-conditioned, 21 seater (+7 standees) Force Traveller is a hi-tech solution for public city bus operations.

Traveller, on account of the monocoque construction, which is similar to an aircraft or a modern passenger car, (there is no separate heavy inefficient chassis), offers superior structural strength, ride quality, low Noise, Vibrations and Harshness (NVH) and unmatched durability. The Traveller made entirely of pressed steel panels fused together in an automated and robotic environment, is almost a tonne lighter than comparable capacity vehicles hence offers best in class power to weight ratio and fuel efficiency.

Traveller is also the only vehicle in this category that undergoes the 6th generation Cathodic Electrophoretic Dip (C.E.D) process of primer application and robotic topcoat application. In the C.E.D process, the full body is immersed in a tank of primer ensuring best in class rust protection and highest level of corrosion resistance. The robotic top coat application and high temperature stoving ensures top class surface finish, gloss and hardness retention for years.
