Ammann India has expanded its Apollo series with the launch of the AP1000 Hydrostatic Sensor Tracked Paver, upgraded to meet the latest CEV Stage V emission standards. The Apollo brand, part of the Ammann Group, has long been associated with reliability and engineering excellence in India’s road-construction sector, commanding over 70 per cent share in the wheeled paver category. The new AP1000 reinforces this legacy with a high-performance, sustainable solution aligned with the country’s infrastructure goals.

Introduced at Ammann’s Mehsana facility, the AP1000 supports India’s fast-growing road and connectivity initiatives. Powered by a 133 kW CEV Stage V–certified engine, it offers strong productivity with reduced emissions. Its paving width of up to 9.5 metres and laydown capacity of 700 tonnes per hour make it suitable for large-scale highways and urban-development projects.

Designed for superior operator experience, the AP1000 features a new touchscreen display for intuitive control, enhanced visibility and more ergonomic handling. Its advanced material-flow system and heavy-duty STV5800G screed deliver consistent pre-compaction and a uniform surface finish.

Ammann’s extensive aftermarket support and nationwide service network ensure high uptime and long-term value for customers investing in the new paver. Managing Director, Mr Dheeraj Panda, said the AP1000 combines Apollo’s trusted legacy with cutting-edge technology, strengthening the company’s commitment to performance, reliability and sustainability in modern road construction.

The Apollo AP1000 Tracked Paver (CEV V) is now available through Ammann India’s pan-India sales and service network.
