  • (1888PressRelease) September 03, 2012 - Announcing the launch of the Tata Xenon Pick-up, Mr. Ravi Pisharody, Executive Director - Commercial Vehicles, Tata Motors, said, "The Pick-up segment is growing rapidly and we see this trend continuing. With the launch of the Tata Xenon Pick-up, we are strengthening our existing Pick-up portfolio. The vehicles have several best-in-class features, which are a strong proposition, and with our existing products like the Tata Super Ace, Tata RX Pick-up and the new Tata Xenon Pick-up range, we are well placed in the market to take on any challenges."

    The workhorses are matched with commensurate power and they come with 3.0 Litre Common Rail and Turbo Direct-Injection engine options, which deliver a top speed of 120 kmph with peak power of 72HP in the single cab and 115HP in the dual cab, with a peak torque of 223nm and 300nm respectively. The Tata Xenon Pick-up delivers best-in-class fuel efficiency because of its scientifically engineered drive train. The Tata Xenon's engines, with their flat torque characteristics, the overdrive gearbox, radial tyres and the aerodynamic shape, contribute to its high fuel efficiency. With a gradeability of 32%, the vehicle will also prove reliable in hilly terrains. The Tata Xenon Pick-up comes with a warranty of 3 lakh kms or 3 years, whichever is earlier, further affirming Tata Motors' confidence in the abilities of the range.

    The Tata Xenon Pick-up is versatile, with payload options to suit varied business requirements. The Tata Xenon single cab variant offers the longest-in-class body length of 8'4". Additional utility features like convenient loading height, 3-side drop load body bring ease to day-to-day operations.

Variants of the model offer safety features like the unique 3-layered body construction, crumple zones, a collapsible steering column, central locking, retractable seatbelts and side intrusion beams which will protect passengers in the event of a side impact collision.
