Our relationship with customers in this region has been built on trust, performance, and shared growth.

With a strong network and an industry-leading service retention rate, we are thankful for the confidence our customers continue to pose in us.

Ashok Leyland’s LCV products were introduced to cater to the evolving needs of Indian LCV customers, combining best-in-class technology with competitive pricing. Today, over 5,50,000 (5.5 lakh) LCVs operate across India, reflecting our strong presence in the segment.

Expanding the portfolio, Ashok Leyland has recently entered the sub-2-ton segment with the launch of the Ashok Leyland SAATHI—a premium entry-level SCV. Powered by a new-generation 45 HP engine delivering 110 Nm of torque, the SAATHI offers the largest loading area in its segment and an industry-leading payload capacity of 1,120 kg.

It is powered with an 80 hp BS6 engine that delivers best-in-class power & mileage, best-in-class payload and best-in-class load body length and loading space that helps customer earn more profit per trip. Owing to its low turning radius and best-in-class ground clearance, BADA DOST is the ideal vehicle for inter and intra city applications and can negotiate all terrains with ease.
