Ashok Leyland accelerates green mobility agenda with LNG fuel truck

Ashok Leyland, flagship company of the Hinduja Group and India’s leading commercial vehicle manufacturer, today received India’s first LNG fueled truck central motor vehicle rules (CMVR) certificate for AVTR UF3522 and its variants from automotive research association of India (ARAI).

As part of the green mobility push, Ashok Leyland presents the AVTR UF3522 – India’s first certified LNG fueled truck – completely validated and optimised for Indian operating conditions.

Intensifying efforts in the alternative fuel segment, the AVTR UF3522 is the next step to expand the offerings. Through thorough R&D, the truck has been validated to work on optimal capacity for the Indian operating conditions. LNG is being considered as the future of the natural gas economy offering lower on-road total carbon emissions as compared to its counterparts like CNG, which will be a step towards India’s goal of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2027.
