Ashok Leyland gets BS6 certification
Commercial vehicle major Ashok Leyland on Tuesday said its entire range of heavy duty trucks has been upgraded to meet BS-VI emission norms, which come into force from April 1, 2020.
New Delhi: Commercial vehicle major Ashok Leyland on Tuesday said its entire range of heavy duty trucks has been upgraded to meet BS-VI emission norms, which come into force from April 1, 2020.
The company has become the first Indian original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to meet BS-VI emission norms across its full range of heavy duty trucks with gross vehicle weight of 16.2 tonne and above, the Hinduja group flagship said in a statement.
On August 29, Ashok Leyland Chief Technology Officer N Saravanan received certificates from Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) confirming compliance with BS-VI emission standard, it added.
ARAI is an autonomous body affiliated to the Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises, which offers comprehensive certification and homologation services for all kinds of vehicles.
"The company has always been a pioneer in the introduction of new technology in the commercial vehicle industry and this achievement of meeting the BS-VI emission standard across our heavy vehicle range further reinforces our position as technology leaders," Ashok Leyland Chairman Dheeraj Hinduja said.
