Mesti korang rasa kelakarkan tengok kereta nie. Untuk makluman kereta yang di panggil 'little penguin' ini baru sahaja dilancarkan oleh syarikat pengeluar kereta nasional India, TATA Motors. Mereka telah melancarkan dua model yang comel gitu iaitu Tata Ace Zip dan Magic Iris. But for me with both look soft toy cute (to me at least) with their wide open eyes and odd proportions. Eyelashes will work well here, don’t you think? He3.
Wait, it gets funnier.Bagi Model Magic Iris, is described as a four-wheel, 3-4 seater small passenger carrier, a good alternative to those three-wheelers that are popular in India or Turk Turk in Thai. The pick-up bodied Ace Zip on the other hand, is described by the press release as a 600-kg micro truck “for deep-penetration goods movement”. By the way, this is not Google Translate playing tricks, the release is in English. Deep penetration goods movement, I like!
Kedua-duanya dikuasakan oleh enjin berkapasiti 611 cc, water cooled engine with 11 hp and 31 Nm of torque. Menggunakan rim 12 inch. No performance figures are given, but Ace Zip boleh memuatkan sehingga 600 kg. Turning radius is a small 3.5 metres. The body is all steel, including the hard top and double steel sheet doors on the Magic Iris.
Harga atas jalan bagi Magic Iris ialah Rs 1.95 lakh (about RM13,000) manakala Ace Zip costs Rs 1.90 lakh. They come with a warranty of 36,000 km or 12 months.
