Tata Motors' Commercial Truck Division has launched the new light and medium duty Ultra truck range.

Featuring the latest in technology and design, the Ultra truck range matches low cost of ownership with high levels of driver comfort, fuel economy and payload capability.

"On the heels of launching our world-class Prima heavy truck range (www.tataprima.com), we now introduce another global standard truck for the light and medium duty segments - the Tata Ultra trucks,” said Mr. Ravi Pisharody, Executive Director, Tata Commercial Vehicles.

Modern and stylish, the Tata Ultra is engineered to deliver high performance to enhance customer’s bottom line while providing world class levels of reliability, safety and comfort. In today’s era of rapidly evolving technology, the Ultra was designed with extensive customer input to meet their changing needs.

The Ultra truck platform will serve both Tata’s new light and medium truck range as well as the company’s light and medium bus series.

Standard features include proven Tata engines and transmissions, front disc brakes, tubeless radial tires and spacious 45-degree tilt cabs featuring suspension seating and air conditioning. The dash-mounted gear shift lever for the six-speed transmission provides for walk-thru cab access.

The first two models to hit the market, the 8-ton Ultra 812 (17,637lb GVW) and 9.6-ton Ultra 912 (21,164lb GVW), will be priced at US$18,026 and US$18,728 respectively.
