Hele ʻo Tata Xenon ute iā Tonka

Ua hōʻike ʻia kahi mea hoʻokūkū hou no ka mākeke kaʻa haʻahaʻa i kona hōʻea ʻana mai me kahi kaʻa kaʻa kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe i hoʻolālā ʻia e ke poʻo o ka hoʻolālā ma Holden Special Vehicles.

Ua wehe ʻo Tata i kahi kaʻa hōʻike hoʻokahi o ke ʻano ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o ka hōʻike kaʻa o ka brand i ka mahina aʻe. ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻokomo ʻia ka Tata "Tuff Truck" i ka hana, akā hiki ke lilo i kekahi o nā mea hana kūloko.

Hāʻawi ʻia nā kaʻa Tata e kahi hui nona ka ʻohana Walkinshaw e hōʻike ana i nā kaʻa Kūikawā Holden, a ma laila e komo ai nā lawelawe hoʻolālā o Julian Quincy. ʻO ka mea hoʻokahi i hoʻolālā i ka HSV GTS hou he lima i ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā hiʻohiʻona hou. ma keia tata xenon ute.

"Makemake mākou e hana i kahi kaʻa manaʻo e hōʻike ana i ke aloha o ka poʻe Australia i ke ʻano a me ka paʻakikī o ko mākou ʻāina," wahi a Darren Bowler, ka luna hoʻomalu o ka mea hoʻolaha ʻo Tata Fusion Automotive.

"Ma ka lawe ʻana iā Julian Quincy a me Walkinshaw Automotive i ka ʻenekinia a me ka hui hoʻolālā i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ke kaʻa manaʻo, ua hiki iā mākou ke huki ma luna o 25 mau makahiki o ka hoʻolālā kaʻa a me ka ʻike hoʻohālike e hana i ke kaʻa manaʻo."

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Quincy, "Manaʻo wau ua lilo ka cockpit haʻahaʻa i makemake i kona pono ponoʻī, a ua makemake mākou e hōʻike i ka maikaʻi o ka hana ʻana o ka Xenon i ka wā i hana ʻia me ka nānā pono e kūpono i ka mākeke kūloko."

E hoʻi ana ka brand Tata i Australia i ka mahina aʻe, akā ʻo ke kaʻa i ʻike nui ʻia - ʻo Nano subcompact kūlanakauhale liʻiliʻi, ke kaʻa haʻahaʻa loa o ka honua ma $2800 - ʻaʻole ia i waena o nā hiʻohiʻona e kūʻai aku. Ma hope o kēia makahiki, e hoʻokuʻu hou ʻo Tata i kahi laina hou o nā kaʻa i kapa ʻia ʻo Xenon a hoʻohui i nā kaʻa kaʻa i ka makahiki aʻe. 

ʻAʻole i hoʻolaha ʻia ke kumukūʻai a me ka ʻike e pili ana i ka model Ute, akā ua ʻōlelo ka hui ʻo ka lineup "e hāʻawi i kahi kiʻekiʻe o ka waiwai ma mua o ka mea i loaʻa i kēia manawa ma ka mākeke." Hoʻomaka nā kumukūʻai no nā pali Kina ma $17,990.

Ua kūʻai pinepine ʻia nā kaʻa Tata ma Australia mai ka makahiki 1996 ma hope o ka hoʻomaka ʻana o kahi mea hoʻolaha ʻo Queensland e lawe mai iā lākou no ka hoʻohana mahiʻai. Ua manaʻo ʻia aia aia ma kahi o 2500 Tata mau ʻeke kaumaha ma nā alanui Australia. Akā he nui nā kaʻa i hana ʻia e India ma nā alanui o Australia, ʻoiai me nā hōʻailona haole. ʻOi aku ma mua o 20,000 mau hatchbacks Hyundai i20 a ʻoi aku ma mua o 14,000 mau subcompacts Suzuki Alto i hana ʻia e India i kūʻai ʻia ma Australia mai 2009.

Akā ʻaʻole i lanakila nā kaʻa ʻē aʻe o ka brand India. Ua nāwaliwali loa ke kūʻai aku ʻana o Australia i nā kaʻa Mahindra a me nā SUV a ʻaʻole i hōʻike ka mea hāʻawi iā lākou i ka Federal Chamber of Motor Vehicles.

Ua loaʻa i ka Mahindra ute kahi ʻilihune ʻelua o ʻelima mau hōkū i nā hoʻokolohua kūʻokoʻa kūʻokoʻa a ua hoʻonui ʻia i ʻekolu mau hōkū ma hope o nā loli ʻenehana. Hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka SUV Mahindra me ka helu ʻehā-hōkū, ʻoiai ʻo ka hapa nui o nā kaʻa e loaʻa i nā hōkū ʻelima. ʻAʻole i loaʻa i ka laina Tata ute hou kahi helu palekana palekana.

Eia naʻe, manaʻo ka mea hoʻolaha kaʻa hou ʻo Tata ma Australia i ke kumu o nā kaʻa e lilo i mea hoʻokūkū. "ʻAʻohe wahi ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ka honua e hoʻāʻo i nā kaʻa ma mua o nā alanui paʻakikī a koi ʻia o India," wahi a Tata Australia ka mea hoʻolaha kaʻa hou ʻo Darren Bowler o Fusion Automotive.

Ua loaʻa iā Tata Motors, ka hui kaʻa kaʻa nui loa o India, iā Jaguar a me Land Rover mai Ford Motor Company i Iune 2008 ma waena o ka pilikia kālā o ka honua. Hāʻawi ka loaʻa iā Tata i ke komo ʻana i nā mea hoʻolālā a me nā ʻenekinia ʻo Jaguar a me Land Rover, akā ʻaʻole naʻe ʻo Tata i hoʻomaka i kahi hiʻohiʻona hou me kā lākou hoʻokomo. Ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia ka Tata Xenon ute ma 2009 a kūʻai ʻia aku ma ʻApelika Hema, Brazil, Thailand, Middle East, Italia a me Turkey.
