Overseas Investments Tata Daewoo develops Novus LPG truck Our Bureau Mumbai, Oct. 15 Tata Daewoo, a fully owned subsidiary of Tata Motors and South Korea’s second largest truck maker, has developed a prototype of South Korea’s first LPG medium commercial vehicle (MCV). The vehicle was developed by Tata Daewoo in association with the Ministries of Commerce, Industry and Energy, Korea Energy Management Corporation and a consortium of 12 organisations, said a release from Tata Motors. The 4.5 tonne (payload) Novus LPG truck conforms to EURO V emission norms and uses next generation technology with Liquid Phase Injection (LPLi) 5.9 litre LPG engine with power of 240 PS. The vehicle while promoting the use of a low-pollution fuel that meets Euro V requirements, overcomes the disadvantages of conventional LPG or diesel vehicles like low power output and engine start-up problem, particularly during winter. Other advantages include reduced noise and emission levels along with enhanced engine life compared to existing diesel trucks, said the release.
