Hinduja Group flagship company Ashok Leyland and Japanese auto-maker Nissan Motor Company rolled out their first Light Commercial Vehicle 1.25 tonne pick up vehicle under the brand, 'Ashok Leyland - DOST'. DOST would be manufacturing the product from Ashok Leyland's Hosur plant in the first phase.
Ashok Leyland and Nissan Motor Company entered into a master-cooperation agreement in October, 2007. The agreement envisaged the two companies entering into the light commercial vehicle business in India for vehicle manufacturing, powertrain manufacturing and technology development.
As per the agreement, both companies will together make an investment of Rs 2,300 crore. Ashok Leyland did not have products in the 7.5 GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) category. With this association (with Nissan Motor Company) the company is going into a segment which is more crowded. While the formal roll-out of the product will take place in the second quarter next fiscal, the new vehicle will be available in three versions -- a base version, a mid-version with power steering and higher version with a dual tone interiors, power steering and an aircondition facility.crackcrack
