Tata Motors has delivered 181 Winger veterinary vans to the Government of Odisha, India. The specially customised Tata Winger will be used by the Directorate of Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services. The vehicles were flagged off by Chief Minister Shri Naveen Patnaik and delegates from the Government of Odisha and Tata Motors. Tata Motors emerged as the top bidder, and the e-bidding process was conducted through the Government e-Marketplace.
The Tata Winger is powered by the 2.2-litre DiCOR engine with improved torque and better fuel economy. It also offers an ECO switch and Gear Shift Advisor that helps in increasing the fuel efficiency. The Winger’s best-in-class grade-ability of 25.8% helps in easy manoeuvring on steep inclines and flyovers.
Additionally, the Winger’s independent front suspension with anti-roll bars and hydraulic shock absorbers assure a smooth ride, as does its monocoque body design, which guarantees car-like driving dynamics and low levels of noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH). Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Rohit Srivastava, Business Head – CV Passengers, Tata Motors, said, “These innovative vans, are meticulously engineered to ensure efficient operations across Odisha.”
