Ashok Leyland, rolled out the country’s first On Board Diagnostic (OBD II) compliant vehicle powered by a BSIV engine and equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. Ashok Leyland was the first OEM to receive the OBD-II certification for BS IV-compliant commercial vehicle engines in SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction), EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) and CNG technologies. This is as per the legislation that came into effect from April 1, 2013 on all BSIV commercial vehicles above 3.5 tonnes GVW. Speaking about the development, Vinod K. Dasari, Managing Director, Ashok Leyland noted, “This is a remarkable achievement of having completed the entire process of certification to final product roll out in record time and credit is due not only to our team but to our suppliers as well who partnered us. With the introduction of stricter emission norms, there is a greater need for sophisticated emission control systems and technologies and OBD II will go a long way in improving the overall life and productivity of the vehicle and, at the end of the day, enhance our customers’ profitability.”
