1. A sharp escalation in the export of Ashok Leyland vehicles:
Recently, Ashok Leyland has revised its export strategy and decided to make a much larger product portfolio available for its global customers than how it was 5 years ago. Their exports grew over 1.5 times in FY21 to 15,139 vehicles. Their focus is on capturing new markets with their best-performing Light Commercial Vehicles (LCVs) first, and then to further go deeper with their Intermediate Commercial Vehicles (ICVs), Medium Commercial Vehicles (MCVs), and Heavy Commercial Vehicles (HCVs). They have a vast range of both left and right-hand drive products.

2. Ashok Leyland LCVs Capturing Large Market Share:
The LCV segment is the top focus of Ashok Leyland when it comes to export. They have gained considerable market share in this segment and backed by this success, they are planning to come up with more and more variants of LCVs in the coming quarters as well. Since the LCVs are mostly intra-city, it is easier to set up the sales & service networks, and the radius of service is relatively smaller. The demand for LCVs is also constantly increasing, owing to the growth of e-commerce and grocery delivery segments. While the company’s overall exports grew 1.5 times in 2020-21, the export of LCVs grew nearly three times. The LCVs have also been resilient to the impact of Covid-19 waves. Even during the pandemic, the segment performed well by contributing more than 50% of Ashok Leyland's absolute yearly vehicle sales in FY21 compared with 28% in FY19. Ashok Leyland Ltd, India's second biggest commercial vehicle manufacturer, is focusing on West Asia and Africa to grow the impression of its LCVs and the recently evolved AVTR trucks. The share of LCVs in the company's exports has increased five-fold to 30% from 6% over the past five years primarily because of the introduction of new products in the sub-5tonne category, including Dost Plus and Bada Dost. As the sales of these vehicles grow, there is also going to be a high demand for Ashok Leyland LCVs Spare Parts. If you wish to capture this market in the future, the time to stock up on these parts is now.
3. Expansion Of Ashok Leyland Product Portfolio:
Ashok Leyland has been expanding its product portfolio by consistently launching new products in the market. In addition to several manufacturing facilities in India, they also have a bus manufacturing facility in the UAE and another one in the United Kingdom. In 2011, Ashok Leyland launched its first LCV called Dost, in a joint venture with Nissan Motor Company of Japan. In 2020, they launched Bada Dost, on their indigenously developed LCV platform called Phoenix. Equipped with the latest BS-VI engines, there are two variants, i4 and i3, with a best-in-class payload capacity of 1,860 kg and 1,405 kg, respectively. Multiple new LCV launches are planned on the Phoenix platform in the coming months.
As Ashok Leyland captures the market with its LCVs, the demand for Ashok Leyland Spare Parts is bound to increase. While the new models will use many unique spare parts, many will be common with the existing models and variants as well. If you start stocking these Ashok Leyland LCV Spare Parts now, not only will you capture the market for Dost & Bada Dost, but also for the new vehicles that get launched in the coming months.
