Anglo-Dutch oil major Shell's Indian arm on Sunday announced the
launching of fourth generation ‘flat-pack all-terrain truck ‘The Ox for
carrying goods, especially for people in remote areas.
The
vehicle, unveiled at Shell Eco-marathon in Chennai on Saturday, is an
energy-efficient affordable solution for last-mile connectivity in
India, a company statement said.
The Ox truck, which can be
assembled in less than 12 hours, is the result of a global partnership
between Shell, Gordon Murray Design and the Global Vehicle Trust, it
said.
The Ox truck "can carry a payload of 1,900 kg including
everyday necessities, medical supplies, building and agriculture
materials", it said.
"Powered by a 2.2-litre diesel engine, the
construction of the body is lightweight and an equal weight distribution
which gives it credentials to tackle rough surface despite it having a
front wheel drive configuration," the statement added.
Commenting
on the development, Shell India Chairman Nitin Prasad said in a
statement: "Limited mobility restricts access to basic amenities in
remote areas. Shell is eager to contribute to developing and promoting
effective mobility solutions thereby improving the quality of life of
people in these areas."
