Anuj Kumar

Fueled by a passion for building innovative, sustainable, and market-ready vehicles. I have worked with global teams in North America, Australia, Africa, and Asia, delivering products tailored to regional needs while meeting international standards. 

I bridge the gap between design, manufacturing, and compliance by combining hands-on technical expertise with strategic project leadership.
