What Indusauto does
Indusauto Hernández, S.L., operating under the trade name Indusauto, is a Spanish private limited company founded in 1988 and headquartered in La Llosa de Ranes, Valencia. The company designs, engineers, manufactures, and homologates specialized vehicles — primarily ambulances (Types A2, B, and C), hearses/funeral vehicles (Eneexis, Dueexis, VITO product lines including US-specification variants), and special-purpose vehicles (telecommunications, PMR/wheelchair-accessible, police, and mobile laboratory units). Manufacturing is based on converting OEM chassis from Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Ford, and Renault into compliant end products. The company operates an integrated product development cycle covering concept, engineering, manufacturing, and European homologation, supported by advanced CAD-CAM software, thermoformed plastic forming for ergonomic interiors, and the use of VR and AR tools from the earliest styling stages to enable remote customer collaboration without physical prototypes. All products are designed and tested to comply with strict European regulatory standards.
Indusauto generates revenue through direct, quote-based sales of custom-built vehicles to three primary customer segments: emergency medical services providers (public and private ambulance operators, hospitals, medical transport companies), funeral service companies across Europe, and government and municipal fleets. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; each vehicle is quoted individually based on base chassis selection, configuration, and homologation requirements. The company markets primarily through its multilingual company website (Spanish and English), direct contact forms, and industry events, and uses a direct enterprise sales model rather than intermediaries. Proprietary branded features such as the IndusAuto ParkTronic parking assistance system and IH-LED interior lighting are integrated into specific hearse models. With 15 employees, a Sociedad Limitada (S.L.) corporate structure, no disclosed equity investors, and a single recorded €23,940 employment-promotion grant from LABORA-SERVEF in 2019, Indusauto presents as a small, founder or family-owned specialized vehicle manufacturer with a focus on regulatory compliance and niche European fleet customers.
