Super Carry will be available
in diesel fuel option and comes in two widely preferred colours: Superior White
and Silky Silver. The Company has invested about
Rs. 300 Crores towards the development of Super Carry.
Super Carry is powered by the
793 cc light weight and compact, 2-cylinder diesel engine. With a peak power of
24 KW @ 3500 RPM and max torque of 75 NM @ 2000 RPM Super Carry offers better
load carrying capacity and pick up. The compact engine mated with the 5-speed
manual transmission offers high fuel efficiency of 22.07 Km per litre and
maximum speed of 80 Kmph. That means shorter turnaround
time, more trips and more savings.
Super Carry offers a payload
of 740 Kg in all terrains. It is
equipped with a lighter steering wheel, contributing to effortless drive even
at full load. This leads to comfortable driving with less fatigue. Super Carry
has longer wheel base of 2110 mm for greater stability. The lower loading bay
and wider deck offers ample loading space to carry higher loads in a single
trip. All these result in more number of
trips and better earnings for the customer. The vehicle is offered with a
warranty of 2 years / 72,000 KM (whichever is earlier).
Better Comfort & Convenience
The cabin of Super Carry is
designed to take care of the driver’s comfort and convenience. The driver’s
cabin is spacious and comes with several ergonomically designed features like
flat and extended co-passenger seat with thick glass fibre heat shield for
better heat insulation and NVH, well positioned gear lever, ergonomically
placed pedals etc., for a comfortable drive.
Features include mobile
charging socket, dual assist grip, odometer, trip meter, fuel meter, and
digital clock, besides provision for a stereo. A few other features include
integrated rain guard, readily openable sliding back window glass, and
conveniently located spare wheel carrier for ease in replacement.
The front is simple, clean and
purposefully designed with horizontal lines at the bottom conveying stability.
The bumper is bold representing strength and ruggedness. Vehicle interior
carries simple & clean design with horizontal design character adding to
the spaciousness and width of the interior. Interior has been designed with
multi-purpose storage spaces, lockable glove box and bottle holder for driver
and co-driver keeping in mind the practical usage.
High on Safety
Super Carry is fitted with
front disc brake and Load Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSPV) braking system
that provides better stability during braking. Bigger and wider wind screen,
ORVMs (driver & co-driver), additional rear reflectors, headlamp leveller
and robust packaging of electrical parts enhance the safety of the occupant.
For added safety, high tensile material limits intrusion inside cabin. The
galvanised material in the chassis area provides better rust resistance.
The channel will carry a
Corporate Identity (CI) based on the principle of openness and transparency to
deliver and reinforce the brand trust. In the first phase three Commercial
channel outlets have been set up in Ahmedabad, Kolkata and Ludhiana.
