NEW DELHI: Ashok Leyland is looking at investing Rs 400-500 crore in its electric vehicle business over the next three to five years. Managing director Vinod Dasari told ETthat the commercial vehicle manufacturer, the flagship firm of the Hinduja Group, aims to be future ready. At the same time, he said, the government needs to step up investments in electric vehicle technology to help bring down battery costs and encourage adoption of green mobility solutions. “We are preparing ourselves for the electric vehicle movement that is going to happen over the next five to 10 years… it’s a question of survival… so (we will invest) at least Rs 400-500 crore over the next three to five years,” Dasari said. He said manufacturers cannot coerce consumers to purchase electric vehicles, and that demand for electric vehicles will take off only when electric vehicles start making economic sense for the buyer. |

Mumbai: Make in India? Check. Zero emissions? Check. New technologies? Check. Despite being on the same page as the government on all three criteria, Ashok Leyland Ltd’s all-electric bus Circuit is still to find takers among state transport bodies. When it showcased Circuit 10 months ago, Ashok Leyland said it was “designed and engineered entirely in India, by Indians, for the nation”. The ground reality seems to be different, though, as cash-strapped state transport undertakings (STU) baulk at adding costly green vehicles to their fleets. |
