Tata Ace Zip Hopper, Ace Box Tipper Light Trucks Showcased

The cute little Tata Ace variants will soon be seen doing the daily runs for your local municipality.

The Tata Ace has been the staple vehicle of small commercial enterprises

The Tata Ace light commercial vehicle platform is a versatile and tough workhorse which replaced the ageing Piaggio Ape and the “Vikram” tempo-three wheelers as the low-cost carriers of choice for small and medium businesses all over the country. The immensely modular vehicle has been used in a number of applications, and has been adopted by municipal corporations in many metros as the small size is perfect for our small roads. Hence, to keep the corporations happy and generate more customers, Tata did a roadshow all over the country last month where it showcased its new range of Ace Zip Hopper and Ace Box Tipper light duty trucks.

Tata Ace Zip Hopper

First of all, just look at that thing! That small cute little truck should come with its own pair of whiskers and cat-ears to complete the look. But under that friendly face is some rugged hardware. The Tata Ace Zip Hopper is ideal for household garbage and can be used for door-to-door garbage collection. The fully-built garbage tipper can segregate wet-dry waste at source. The mini truck’s PTO-drive hydraulic tipping mechanism and 80-85 degree tipping angle make it ideal for tipping waste directly into the refuse compactor. The vehicle’s small size and small, best-in-class turning radius makes navigation in narrow lanes easy. On top of it, the Ace Zip Hopper is available in both diesel and CNG options.

Tata Ace Box Tipper

Tata also revealed the box-tipper version of the Ace small truck. The Tata Ace has been the undisputed king of the light-truck market for a long time now. The vast Tata service network and the general overall tough build-quality of the truck make it invincible in any condition. The Tata Ace Box Tipper is designed for transport and dumping of waste and hazardous materials. The little Activa scooter of small commercial trucks has lower body height, PTO-drive hydraulic tipping mechanism and two-button remote make loading and unloading easy-peasy.
