Benefits of Cowl Chassis over Cabin Chassis Truck 

Responding to the problems faced by the customers due to cowl chassis, Eicher decided to launch a new version of Eicher Pro 6042 and Eicher Pro 6048 where customers can get their cowl chassis from showroom and get their cabin designed from local market. This amazing new feature by Eicher will not only increase its sales but also prove its caution towards customers. There are numerous benefits of this new cowl chassis version of Eicher Pro 6042 and Eicher Pro 6048 which are listed below: -  

  • Spacious 

         Cabins made by the company are very small where the driver was not able to sleep comfortably and store essentials. So, the company decided to overcome this problem with a new cowl chassis version where the customers can get the cowl chassis-built from the market according to their demands and needs.  

  • Cooler 

         Cabins built by Eicher are made of steel which gets heated up in summer and driver feels harsh, but with the new cowl chassis version of Pro 6042 and Pro 6048 we can get the cabin designed with wood which does not heat up and the driver is more comfortable.   

  • Cheaper 

         In case of major accidents if our cabin gets demolished and we want the company cabin to be replaced it costs a huge sum of money but if we get a cabin designed from the market it is much cheaper than the company’s cabin.
