Shenu Agarwal, MD and CEO, Ashok Leyland, said, “VRL Logistics and Ashok Leyland have a longstanding association which is beyond the usual customer-OEM relationship. Over the years, VRL has worked very closely with us in developing new products and features suited to emerging needs of customers in the logistics industry.”
Built on the latest AVTR modular truck platform, offering flexibility of multiple cab and feature options, the AVTR 3120 is powered by Ashok Leyland’s 200hp engine with iGen6 technology which delivers better fluid efficiency. It is available in cowl and three cabin options (N Cab, U cab, M cab) and has loading span options ranging from 24’ to 32’. The AVTR trucks come bundled with digital solutions like i-Alert (advanced telematics) and remote diagnostics supported by 24x7 customer assistance from the company’s Uptime Solution Centre and Service Mandi network.
According to Ashok Leyland, the AVTR 3120 and AVTR 4420 TT trucks’ advanced features and technologies will help VRL achieve reduced maintenance time, fewer stopovers, and higher efficiency resulting in better uptime and increased profitability.
In FY2023, Ashok Leyland sold a total of 1,03,480 goods-carrying M&HCVs, which constitutes strong 69% year-on-year growth (FY2022: 61,301 units).
