The commercial vehicles also incorporate low viscous rear axle oil, e-viscous radiator fan, gearshift advisor, and low rolling resistance tyres. 

At the launch event, Girish Wagh, Executive Director, Tata Motors, said, “The trucks that we are launching today address the growing need for safer transportation with an Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) offering collision mitigation system, lane departure warning, electronic stability control, driver alerts, and tyre pressure monitoring. They also provide cleaner mobility solutions with a richer offering of alternate fuel powertrains. We continue to redefine transportation by ‘Delivering Progress’ to our customers, their drivers, the shippers, and our country by making the logistics chain more efficient.”
