Tata Motors (Thailand) to unveil new pickup and electric car prototype at Motor Expo 2010

At the forthcoming Motor Expo, Tata Motors will launch its new cab-over 1-ton pickup, Tata Super Ace City Giant in the Thailand market for city logistics application. The company will also be showcasing the prototype of its Indica Vista EV electric car for the first time in Thailand. The 27th Thailand International Motor Expo 2010 will take place from December 1 through 12 at Impact Challenger Hall 1-3, Muang Thong Thani, and this year, the theme of the show is: “Unify…Create Earth-Loving Vehicles.” “The new pickup, Tata Super Ace City Giant enables efficient last mile application. This is another development that exemplifies Tata Motor’s commitment to producing commercial vehicles specifically built for logistics applications.” said Ajit Venkataraman, Chief Executive Officer of Tata Motors (Thailand). “The Tata Super Ace City Giant is different from other conventional pickups. The cab-over design makes the vehicle compact and at the same time does not compromise on the loading area. This allows more space at the back for load carrying while reducing the total exterior length allowing for easy parking. This vehicle provides the driver with better visibility, and is especially suitable for logistic transport in congested areas.” he explained. The Tata Super Ace City Giant comes with an exterior length of 4.34 meters. Its flat load body is extra-long at 2.63 x 1.46 meters and is rated for a maximum payload of one ton.

The Tata Ace is the top-selling commercial vehicle in India with annual sales over of 120,000 units. The Tata Super Ace City Giant has been developed specifically to meet the requirements of higher power, torque and vehicle speed of Thai customers.
