For its contribution to special-purpose logistics, sustainability, and operational versatility, the SML Samrat Dual Cabin CNG was named Special Application CV of the Year at the 16Th Apollo CV Awards 2025. The recognition celebrates its unique positioning, customer-centric features, and robust engineering that align well with evolving fleet needs and environmental mandates. With a thoughtful combination of utility, durability, and green mobility, SML Isuzu’s Samrat Dual Cabin is more than just a truck—it’s a tailored solution for a nation on the move.

The SML Isuzu Samrat Dual Cabin with multiple fuel options (Diesel, CNG and LNG) is a purpose-built Special Application Vehicle that epitomises this niche. With the ability to simultaneously transport manpower and material, it addresses a key gap in sectors that demand flexibility, ruggedness, and a clean operational footprint.

A DUAL-UTILITY WORKHORSE

At its core, the Samrat Dual Cabin is an 11.12-tonne GVW truck that smartly blends crew-carrying comfort with robust load-lugging ability. Designed with a seating capacity of D+6 and a 10 ft. cargo deck, the vehicle is well-suited for applications ranging from infrastructure maintenance and disaster response to municipal utility services and industrial logistics. The driver and six passengers enjoy a comfortably spaced cabin, with the extra-long body ensuring no compromise on load volume.
