Mr. Sandeep Kumar, Head - Sales
and Marketing, Small, Light and
Intermediate Commercial Vehicles,
Tata Motors, said that the vehicle
would be commercially available in
the first quarter of next fiscal year
(2012-13). The BS IV vehicle would
replace the company’s entire exist-
ing range over a period of next two
to three years and is tipped to set a
new standard in the coming years.
The Ultra range offers future-
ready LCV & ICV trucks, making
them business assets that will assur-
edly give the customers a competi-
tive edge. With the new platform,
Tata Motors aims to move on the
top-line of the LCV segment similar
to its efforts with the Prima in the
HCV division.
