“Tippers are the fastest growing segment in M&HCV space and they are the driving force for the rapidly growing infrastructure needs of our country.” - Sanjeev Kumar, Head - MHCV, Ashok Leyland

March 2022: Ashok Leyland has launched India’s first Tipper with 9-speed Automated Manual Transmission (AMT) – the AVTR 2825. The new AVTR 2825 with 9 speed AMT can operate in different transmission modes (automated and manual) and deliver high fuel efficiency with its acceleration-based gear shifting. Speaking on this latest development, Sanjeev Kumar, Head - MHCV, Ashok Leyland said, “Tippers are the fastest growing segment in M&HCV space and they are the driving force for the rapidly growing infrastructure needs of our country. Tippers are largely operated in rough conditions for long durations, therefore requiring them to be highly reliable and ergonomic. As a customer-centric OEM, we thus made these trucks more user-friendly and convenient while retaining robustness and reliability.”
