Auto Expo 2012: New range TATA Ultra
The Tata Ultra LCV and ICV range will comprise a series of variants from 5 to 14 tonnes. The range will be powered by new generation 3L (138HP) and 5L (168HP) common rail (DiCOR) 16-valve engines, offering higher aggregate life, longer service intervals and low NVH. The sleek and elegant walk-through steel cabin, a dash-mounted cable shift gear and hydraulic cabin tilt mechanism make the driver at home. Ergonomically designed mechanically suspended seats with integral headrest, power steering, which is tiltable, telescopic and collapsible, and clear-lens headlamps will make long drives stress-free in all weather conditions. The Ultra’s high strength Domex 650 steel rolled chassis frame with high tensile strength and straight long member construction allows the platform the flexibility of multiple wheel bases at multiple payload points. Radial tyres, parabolic leaf springs, tuned shock absorbers and, for the first time in the category, disc brakes ensure safe transit of goods.
