Here’s how our international legacy of trust and innovation will now be extending its footprint in sunny South Africa.
Founded in 1948 as Ashok Motors, the company started as a venture to assemble British-manufactured Austin cars in India. By 1955, a collaboration with British Leyland transformed it into Ashok Leyland, marking the beginning of a journey to revolutionise commercial transportation. This partnership introduced cutting-edge truck technology to developing markets, solidifying the company’s reputation for reliability and performance.
With a focus on robust engineering, Ashok Leyland has consistently pushed the boundaries of automotive innovation. In 2016, the company launched India’s first electric bus and Euro 6-compliant truck, setting a benchmark for sustainable transportation. Today, models like the Ashok Leyland Dost and Phoenix reflect this commitment to innovation, offering advanced features tailored to modern business needs.
As one of the world’s top 10 commercial vehicle manufacturers, Ashok Leyland serves over 50 countries. Its presence in South Africa is supported by trusted partnerships, such as with Group1, ensuring local businesses benefit from global expertise.
