Hino Motors
During the early 1980s Ashok Leyland entered into a collaboration with Japanese
company Hino Motors from whom technology for the H-series engines was sourced. Many
indigenous versions of the H-series engine were developed with 4 and 6 cylinders, and also
conforming to BS2, BS3 & BS4 emission standards in India. These engines proved to be
extremely popular with the customers primarily for their excellent fuel efficiency. Most
current models of Ashok Leyland come with H-series engines. Japan entered into a Mutual
Cooperation Agreement (MCA) on 27 November 2017 renewing their cooperative agreement
that had started in 1986. According to the agreement Ashok Leyland will use Hino's engine
technology for its Euro 6 development and will support in the development of Hino's engine
parts purchasing in India for global operation

Iveco partnership
In the late 1980s Iveco investment and partnership resulted in Ashok Leyland launching the 'Cargo'
range of trucks based on European Ford Cargo trucks. The Cargo entered production in 1994, at
Ashok Leyland's new plant in Hosur, southeast of Bengaluru.[12] These vehicles used Iveco engines
and for the first time had factory-fitted cabs. Though the Cargo trucks are no longer in production
and the use of Iveco engine was discontinued, the cab continues to be used on the Ecomet range
of trucks as well as for several of Ashok Leyland's military vehicles.
The Cargo was originally introduced in 7 and 9 long tons (7,100 and 9,100 kg) versions; later,
heavier-duty models from 15 to 26 long tons (15,200 to 26,400 kg) were progressively introduce
