hanced safety features, suited to the

this global variant of the Tata Su-
per Ace. It delivers a peak power
of 70 HP @ 4000 rpm and a peak
flat torque of 140 NM @ 1400-2750

Tata Super Ace comes with safety
features such as ABS and airbags

driver and co-passenger. It also
meets very stringent crash norms.

of -40 to +55 degree C. With best-
in-class fuel efficiency, the Tata
Super Ace offers better savings and
better earnings making it the ideal
choice for any business.
