Ashok Leyland Stile Revealed

Ashok Leyland has officially pulled the wraps off its rebadged Evalia model, the Stile MPV. The unveiling was done yesterday by Carlos Ghosn, CEO of Renault-Nissan Alliance. Ashok Leyland Stile will go on sale in time for the festive season later this year.

Unlike the Nissan Evalia, Stile will be an out and out commercial vehicle. The pricing and the positioning of the vehicle means it is suitable to be used for hotel shuttles, taxi services, ambulances, panel vans, courier services, inter­city and intra­city travel.

Ashok Leyland Stile looks exactly the same as the Evalia, except for the headlamps, the front grille and bumper, which are new. AL has tried to further differentiate the Stile from its more upmarket cousin by dressing it differently, with colourful body graphics.
