    Model : Xenon

    The Tata pick-up is well styled. The clean lines penned by the Concept Group give it a mature and modern look. The Xenon is a lifestyle offroader targetted at the weekend warrior adventure crowd.The upswept window line in the rear doors is a neat stylistic touch. Under the skin, the Xenon comes with with front torsion bar suspension, rear leafs and 4WD, with a ‘shift-on-the-fly’ operation. The Xenon also gets a limited slip differential, and alloy wheels as standard.

    It looks similar to the Sumo Grande from the front and those bulging wheel archwes give it a lot of presence. At the rear the tailgate also get an embosed 'Tata' Logo.ased on a thoroughly revised tata pick up truck TL chassis, the Xenon is a whopper - longer than a Q7 and wider than a BMW X5.This is an extended cab version with four doors and the load bay is designer to carry 500kg, but 'officially' only  220kgs.

    The Xenon has a body on a ladder frame chassis, a live axle at the rear, load-lugging leaf springs and a proper set of low range gear ratios. This is a proper pick-up, the way the Americans know it.
