The Tata Winger is a light commercial van produced by the Indian automaker Tata Motors since 2007.[1] It is a rebadged version of the Renault Trafic Mk1 Phase 3 van,[2] but fitted with Tata's own diesel four-cylinder engines.
The Winger is offered in six variants and two seating configurations: long or short wheelbase, high and low roof versions and also specialised ambulance and school bus versions, as well as the plain panel van. The top of the range is a flat roof, the air-conditioned variant is a ten-seater, while the remaining five versions are offered as either 13- or 14-seaters, taking the total number of variants to eleven.
The Winger is powered by a modified version of the 2.0-litre diesel engine that is currently offered on the Tata Sumo. This 1948 cc engine comes with a turbo-charged, inter-cooled (TCIC) version in all the variants, except in the smaller length, entry-level Winger van.
The non-turbo-charged version of the engine develops a peak power of 680NaN0 compared to the 900NaN0 that the TCIC version puts out. The Winger meets Bharat Stage VI emission standards, except for the base variant, which is BS-VI compliant. The ambulance model was certified to meet BS-IV standards.[3]
Second generation Tata Winger is offered with three wheelbases (2800, 3200, and 3488 mm), two roof heights and four use cases. Both air-conditioned and non-air-conditioned variants are available. Seating capacities range from 9 to 20. Winger is powered by a BS-VI (Euro 6) compliant 2.2-litre turbo diesel engine producing and 200 N-m of torque.[4] It uses a semi-hydraulic actuated dry clutch.
The Winger van is front-wheel-drive with a longitudinally mounted engine, coupled to a five-speed transmission. The Winger's suspension is MacPherson strut up front with a beam axle with parabolic leaf springs at the rear.
