Tata Winger : Features and Technicalities - 1

Tata Motors has launched two new commercial passenger vehicles – Tata Magic and Tata Winger. As a completely Indian company, you can trust Tata Motors to know the market like the back of its hand. It had sensed the demand for commercial passenger vehicles in the rural and urban markets and aptly launched both the models to comfortably suit the desired needs of respective markets. Tata Winger is basically a maxi-van but Magic is just a remodeled passenger version of Tata Ace which is its commercial vehicle.

Features:

Tata Winger can seat 9 to 13 passengers in its front facing seats. To add to the little comforts of the travelling passengers, you can find small magazine holders bottle holders and even small spot lamps for the night ride to enjoy comfortable ride while reading or relaxing. A cool vehicle to act as staff carrier, an ambulance, hotel or airport transfers, school vans or even tourist vans at various tourist destinations. The uses are endless and indeed its uses run as far as your imagination!

Technicalities:

The new Winger is powered by 2L turbo charged diesel engine! Quite economical, and the diesel engine is mostly favoured in India as for long runs and optimum fuel usage. Moreover, diesel engine powers most of the commercial vehicles in India so Tata Winger diesel model comes only as the most natural option from the company. It meets all the BS-III norms accompanied with a warranty of 18-months or 1.5 lakh KMs, whichever is earlier.

The car of the mile Maruti will not sell 800 in 11 cities from 2010

You never buy a beloved Maruti 800 in the year of 2010. Yeah! It is true. Maruti Suzuki has decided to stop selling its 800 model, that changed the face of the Indian car market, from 11 cities, including the four metros, from 2010 due to tighter emission norms. Maruti chairman RC Bhargava said the company will also stop selling Omni van in cities where stricter Bharat Stage IV (BSIV) norms will be implemented from next year.

Maruti chairman RC Bhargava said, "We will not be selling the M800 and Omni vans in the 11 major cities where BSIV norms set in from next year. However, this in no way means that we will discontinue or phase out the models, as these would continue to be sold in other cities and towns where BSIII norms would be applicable".

The cities where BSIV norms will set in from April 2010 are Delhi , Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore , Hyderabad , Pune, Kanpur , Ahmedabad, Surat and Agra . Other cities will come under BSIII norms, making it possible for the company to sell the cars. However, these would also come under BSIV norms by around 2015-16, that would finally mean phase-out of the two models.

Bhargava said Maruti had no plans to further invest in engine modernisation for the M800 or the Omni, the longest-standing models for the company. "We are not looking at this option. To continue the models in BSIV cities, we have to not only make changes to the engine but also take care of other issues. We do not want to do this. Anyway, they are old cars," he said.

M800, that once used to be the bread-and-butter model for the company, has sold over 27 lakh units since its launch in 1983. However, with the cut in prices of Alto, the demand for the car had gone down, though it still averages 4000-5000 units monthly.

But the absence of the models from 11 major cities, just when Tata would strengthen and boost the numbers of the Nano, is expected to make things tough for Maruti. The company is believed to be working on a new strategy to tackle the Nano phenomenon, though officially it has refrained to admit so.

Bhargava, however, said the exit from the cities would not be a big dampener for the company. "The demand for these models here is not that big anyway. So the impact will only be marginal," he said.

So, your dreams about Maruti 800 not comes true in the year 2010.
