Ashok Leyland introduces India’s first air suspension range of trucks

Ashok Leyland has announced the launch of India’s first range of trucks with air suspension. Reinforcing its position as a pioneer in the industry, Ashok Leyland has introduced three breakthrough models: the AVTR 4925 10x2 MAV (India’s first 49T truck with air suspension, offering a payload advantage of 1.5T), the AVTR 4625 10x2 MAV (India’s first 46T truck with a payload advantage of 4T), and the AVTR 4525 8x2 MAV (India’s first 45T truck with a payload advantage of 4T).

Enhanced payload, comfort and stability with air suspension technology

This new range of trucks with the best-in-class payload advantage of up to 4T feature an air suspension system which provides multiple benefits, including enhanced vehicle stability in laden conditions, and reduced vibrations and shocks. The system delivers superior ride comfort, especially while negotiating repeated road undulations, along with improved tyre life. The rear suspension system requires no greasing, enabling maintenance-free operations. The technology also contributes to longer tyre life, further strengthening the overall economics of ownership. Together, these advantages reinforce Ashok Leyland’s commitment to delivering industry leading solutions that maximize profitability while setting new benchmarks in performance and comfort.

The new air suspension range is available in both cowl and cabin options with multiple loading span choices, providing flexibility based on customer requirements. The trucks are equipped with iVAC (Intelligent Vehicle Acceleration Control) and ATC (Automatic Traction Control) as standard features, supporting higher fuel efficiency and improved traction across different terrains.

With this launch, Ashok Leyland continues to strengthen its legacy as a Technology Leader and Industry Pioneer, delivering products that empower customers with higher productivity, profitability, and reliability.
