New Tata Winger Plus targets staff transportation companies and the tourism circuit; continues to be powered by a 2.2L Dicor diesel engine

Tata Motors has introduced a new take on its popular premium people mover today as the Winger Plus, a 9-seater van, has been priced at Rs. 20.60 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). Targeted at staff transportation companies and the tourism circuit, the updated Winger is said to combine passenger comfort with lower running costs – something fleet operators keep a keen eye on.

The cabin comes with reclining captain seats fitted with armrests – each seat getting its own AC vent and USB port. More importantly, there is generous legroom to stretch out on long trips while the wide cabin and a large luggage bay make it practical for groups. Built on a monocoque platform, the new Tata Winger Plus is claimed to offer a more planted ride on the road.

It is said to give a smoother more car-like drive than traditional ladder-frame rivals. Powering it is Tata’s tried-and-tested 2.2-litre Dicor diesel engine which churns out a maximum power output of 100 hp and 200 Nm of peak torque. The motor has been calibrated to offer good fuel economy over outright punch which makes sense for its role.

On top of that, Tata has equipped the van with the Fleet Edge connected vehicle suite. Operators can track their vans in real time – keep an eye on diagnostics and even optimise usage across fleets – handy for keeping costs in check. The new Winger Plus is not a standalone product but part of Tata’s much wider people mobility portfolio which comprises everything from compact 9-seaters like this to full-sized 55-seater buses.

With multiple body styles and powertrain options, Tata clearly wants to keep its stranglehold on the commercial passenger space intact. Tata backs the Winger Plus with its Sampoorna Seva 2.0 package that comes with faster service turnaround, maintenance contracts, easy access to genuine spares and on-road breakdown assistance. For fleet owners, it means less downtime and a lower overall cost of ownership – critical factors in this business.

Of course, service reach matters just as much and Tata has the numbers there too. With over 4,500 sales and service outlets across India, even remote operators can expect reasonable support and spares availability – something smaller rivals can’t always guarantee. Commenting on the new launch, Anand S, Vice President and Head – Commercial Passenger Vehicle Business, Tata Motors, said,

“The Winger Plus has been thoughtfully engineered to deliver a premium experience for passengers and a compelling value proposition for fleet operators. With its superior ride comfort, best-in-class comfort features, and segment-leading efficiency, it is designed to drive profitability while offering the lowest cost of ownership.”
