Ashok Leyland strengthens its footprint in green transport solutions

Ashok Leyland, through its subsidiary Switch Mobility Ltd – the U.K. based EV producer of buses and vans, announced its global expansion plans into India and its plan to create two subsidiary companies. The first, Switch Mobility Automotive Ltd, is being formed to carry on the EV strategy in India, which forms part of its global entity. The second is OHM Global Mobility Private Ltd, which will focus on providing Mobility as a Service offering.

Switch Mobility Automotive Ltd brings together Ashok Leyland’s capabilities both from Optare UK and Ashok Leyland’s EV Division. OHM Global Mobility Private Ltd is a solutions company being piloted in India with ambitious plans to roll out Mobility as a Service (eMaaS) globally. Together, Switch and OHM will provide a net carbon zero emission solution to India’s exciting trend towards EV urban buses and LCVs, the company said.
