Scoop: Tata Prima 7548.S Truck Caught ‘On Test’ [Updated]

This is infact the production version of Prima 7548.S which Tata displayed as a concept at this year’s Auto Expo in New Delhi. This heavy monster is powered by a massive Cummins ISX 14.9L engine mated to a 18-speed gearbox.

Tata has been a pioneer in commercial vehicles since long. A few years back they launched these fantastic looking modern Prima trucks.

We caught this huge 22 wheel Tata Prima truck around Chinchwad in Pune a few days back. After a few quick searches over the internet, we have come to know that these Prima range of trucks is made available in Trailers as well as Tippers.
