Tata Motors unveils ‘Tata Megapixel’ at the 82nd Geneva Motor Show

Date: 10-03-2012

Tata Motors has unveiled Tata Megapixel, a new four-seater city-smart global range extended electric vehicle (REEV) at the 82nd Geneva Motor Show. Combining a lithium ion phosphate battery and an on-board petrol engine generator for recharging on the move, the Tata Megapixel offers a range of up to 900 km (with a single tank of fuel), path-breaking CO2 emission of just 22 gm/km and fuel economy of 100 km/litre (under battery only power).

The Tata Megapixel is as distinctive in elegantly melding Indian uniqueness - in colours, graphic themes or materials - with global styling preferences. The integrated lamp and grille graphics sweep back over the front wheel arches to render a dynamic front end. It is echoed on the panoramic roof, creating a harmony between sun and shade and sense of interior space. The floating C-pillar and wrap-around belt line finisher integrate perfectly with the sculpted body surface, flowing freely to the rear and encapsulating the 5-spoke wheel design.

A double-sliding door system and the car's B-pillar less design make entry/exit easy, besides superb visibility. The battery layout and hub motors maximize the interior package making comfortable enough to accommodate four adults with luggage. The front seats are cantilevered on the central tunnel, releasing floor space for additional storage.

The company has also displayed the new generation Tata Safari Storme SUV, the Tata Aria crossover, the Tata Indigo Manza sedan and the Tata Indica Vista hatchback at the show.
