The Tata Xenon pick-up truck has been spotted in Malaysia – the above solitary on-the-road shot comes from reader Ani B Cat, and shows the Telcoline successor’s unique upswept shoulder line.
But the double-cab’s not the only one here – a single-cab has also been photographed at the JPJ car park, displaying its unpainted front bumper and grille, simpler wheels and huge eight-by-four-feet flatbed with drop sides.
The Tata Xenon is powered either by a 72 hp/223 Nm 3.0 litre intercooler turbodiesel or an 85 hp/250 Nm 3.0 litre DICOR common-rail diesel. Gearbox is a five-speed manual.
DRB-Hicom has a collaboration with Tata Motors via their wholly-owned unit USF-Hicom, for both fully-imported (CBU) and locally-assembled (CKD) Tata commercial vehicles.

I’ll choose a TATA anytime over any chinese made car for the reliability. Hence, there is no cheating issues like what happened to Aston Martin accelerator pedal or high content of hazardous material or doubtful safety specs.
You have used one b4?
Tata in chinese means…bye bye!
72hp from a 3.0 litre?!!
That Must 30 years Ancient Technology Used in a Tata.
but if it come within RM50k to RM65k for all variant, Then it justify enough.
Great to move Malaysia Economy.
No bad.. go to kedai potong get old myvi 1.3 engine get 90hp.. can use also.. haha… Man…
Enough with ur myvi!
It’s a commercial vehicle to move goods. Not more, not less…
It’s all about riding the wave of torque in a pikap. kurang top end not the issue. Kalau nak issue gak, beli sport car. confirm at least 150 hp :)
I hope they will make them as reliable as their sister brands – Land Rover and Jaguar!
I hope that is sarcasm. And also Tata has 0 involvment in the design or engineering of JLR, all they do is send money to britain.
Not true, if you been reading the UK car magazines lately, TATA is very much involved in Land Rover design, platform and engineering. They even had say in the Evoque project.
Expensive does not mean reliable. LandRover is not a great reliable brand. Typical English Cars – Problems.
Unless it’s a LandRover Defender – Tough and Basic.
No Radio. Should be cheap!
Most pickup player today come with 330nm n above n some goes for almost 500nm tork….223nm for 3.0cc is a joke ! Even 1 ton lorry with 2.8cc n aged 20 year use direct injection are far superior than these…. it will more cheaper but dmax n hilux ( secondhand )are better buy from these problematic pickup…
OMG?! Who will buy this car? 72hp for 3.0liter is a waste! Even 2.5liter triton vgt can get 172hp!
The power and torque seems very low for a 3.0L CR diesel engine. Seriously, 28.3 hp/ 83.3 Nm-per-litre is shamed by even the 2.5L non-CR engine in the Triton Lite Turbo.
sorry India’s brand.. even India in Msia don’t use it..
Severely lack of power and very expensive road tax.
NEVER ever by TATA! My dad bought a TATA and the car was really badly made!
All parts don’t fit properly and squeaks. The engine had no power when new. The fuel meter stopped working since day 1. The car feels so heavy and under power, the overtaking in highway is simply scary and dangerous.
After 1 year usage, the engine is even weaker than new and the car becomes even more noisy.
Finally, after 3 years of usage, my dad sold the car for a mere 20% of its original value… It is a total waste of money and 3 years of horrible experience.
Trust me… Don’t get this car.
buy*
Problem is the after support with Tata since the first badge of telcoline
No doubt the selling price are cheaper compare to other brand.
But as a typical car buyer, why should I put my risk into it? Why not I get a secondhand hilux, or other pickup truck like dmax in which has plenty of support from the local shop.
A typical secondhand hilux of 6-7 years old can most probably last for another 7-10 years if properly maintain.
car is new, reliability is very important.
You Buy a TATA you use until u become a Tata…
how safe is this macha?
You buy Tata and many people will tata to you. I finally has something worse than kimchi to show to my cousin Sam.
tata titi tutuuu.
wait, how can it not come with Xenon headlights?!
72Bhp for a 3.0? Is it powered with dried cow dung?
when are we getting mahindra xylo here on our roads?
Don’t understand why some people still buy this..
Intelligence beyond comprehension.
because its not PROTON..if PROTON brand whether it produce 200bhp no body to buy..
anyway im owner CFE.
sell it very very very n there will b buyers..
for a brand new pickup, i think GWM pickup is good alternative. Good car selling at good price
whoa… check out the interior panel (mis)alignment!
for 3litre its 85 kw not hp. for 2.2 its 140bhp/ 320nm
