MEXICO CITY – Mexico’s government unveiled a comprehensive support package Thursday aimed at strengthening the nation’s trucking and heavy vehicle manufacturing sectors.<\/p>

Economy Minister Marcelo Ebrard detailed the initiative during a press briefing, explaining that the program focuses on helping domestic manufacturers and heavy truck operators while shielding them from foreign competition.<\/p>

“It has an initial budget of 2 billion pesos ($112.41 million) in tax deductions and 250 million pesos in direct investment,” Ebrard stated.<\/p>

The initiative will provide financial incentives for purchasing heavy-duty vehicles as part of broader efforts to strengthen Mexico’s commercial transportation sector.<\/p>

President Claudia Sheinbaum emphasized that the measures are designed to increase commercial vehicle manufacturing within Mexico. She noted that upgrading the nation’s heavy-duty vehicle fleet will lead to reduced emissions and enhanced freight transportation infrastructure nationwide.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
