The switch from old, smoky diesel tempos to the Dost CNG LE would make a huge difference in air quality. And CNG does not produce that CO2, it’s not just CO2, it also does not produce particulate matter or some other nasty pollutants.

I am skeptical about the real impact in the real world. Yes, CNG is cleaner than diesel but in the increasing traffic, are we merely delaying the rate of pollution instead of actually improving the air quality?

The vehicles themselves aren’t the only thing; there is also congestion reduction. How efficient the Dost CNG LE runs means the less trips and less idling time could have a huge impact on air quality.

I drive in the city daily and I do see that areas with more CNG vehicles do seem to have clearer air. Again, this is anecdotal, but I feel that widespread adoption of the Dost CNG LE would make a big difference.

The whole lifecycle has to be considered. The problem with CNG is that if the production and transportation of CNG is not clean then we may just be moving the problem around rather than solving it.

After all, we must not forget the psychological impact. The more green vehicles such as the Dost CNG LE that can be seen on the road, the more it would lead to other companies and people making more eco friendly choices.

I believe that we are overlooking the possibility of improving CNG technology to make it more widely used. In the future, Ashok Leyland’s innovation on making the Dost even cleaner could have an even bigger impact on air quality.

The real question is whether CNG is the best use of resources. Would better air quality be achieved if we spent equal effort towards electrification or public transportation?

Since I am an automotive enthusiast, I’m really hyped about the Dost CNG LE. The emissions are not the only issue, but also forcing other manufacturers to improve the cleanliness of their vehicles.
BILLS: Dost CNG LE is Ashok Leyland’s truck for small businesses. Is it a game changer?

Absolutely! Small businesses will love the Dost CNG LE. If the fuel costs are low, it means more profits and the eco friendly angle can be a good selling point for customers who are concerned about sustainability.

It's overhyped, in my opinion. The CNG stations are still not widespread enough, especially in smaller towns and rural areas. Businesses that have to cover long distances may have range anxiety as a real problem.

I think this is a step in the right direction but it’s not a game changer yet. Despite that, the initial cost is still higher than some of the alternatives to diesel, and may be a big barrier for many small business owners.

I have used the Dost CNG LE for my delivery business and it’s been a mixed bag. Yes it saves fuel, but unless you can find an Ashok Leyland service center, then doubts remain over maintenance.

Game-changer? Maybe not. It’s shaking things up for sure, though. The long term test though will be how it performs and will Ashok Leyland be able to build a strong service network to support it.

I feel we’re not seeing the forest for the trees here. But it is the Dost CNG LE that is prompting other manufacturers to get creative in the small commercial vehicle space. That competition is the one that will really change the game for small businesses.

This vehicle is going to succeed or fail based on what the government does in terms of CNG infrastructure and incentives for green vehicles. Without that backing it becomes just another choice in a sea of such choices.

I’ve heard some of the concerns about the payload capacity versus diesel variants. This could be a dealbreaker, game changer or not, depending on whether businesses need to haul heavy loads.

If Ashok Leyland provides flexible financing options for small businesses, that would be the real game changer. That’s not even part of the equation; the vehicle itself is just part of it.

As an automotive lover I am enthusiastic regarding Dost CNG LE, not for its capacity to transform the game, but for the manner in which it is pushing the limits of what is possible in a small commercial vehicle. Other manufacturers are sitting up and taking notice of it.
What is Ashok Leyland Dost Plus LX like to drive as a long haul LCV from a comfort and ergonomics point of view?

Nice, but not great for really long trips. The steering wheel could be adjustable and the seat could use more cushioning. I feel pretty sore after about 5 or 6 hours.
