Ashok Leyland Dost platform has emerged as one of the top-selling last-mile trucks. Apart from this compact truck's diesel variants, the CNG variant is also widely preferred by urban customers. Ashok Leyland hasn’t yet announced the BS6 update of its CNG engine due to the pandemic related disruption. But we expect the same engine will continue with new and stringent emissions. Perhaps the power figure may change. We'll update you on the change once the new CNG variants are commercially launched.
