Tata Motors announced that it has secured an order to supply 1,000 units of its Tata LPO 1618 diesel bus chassis to the Uttar Pradesh State Road Transport Corporation (UPSRTC). The order was awarded through a government-conducted e-bidding process. Delivery will occur in phases, as per the terms agreed upon by both parties.
This follows the fulfillment of a previous order for 1,350 bus chassis, which were also supplied to UPSRTC and are currently in operation. The Tata LPO 1618 chassis are designed for intercity and long-distance travel, with a focus on reliability, passenger comfort, and low operating costs.
Anand S, Vice President of Tata Motors’ Commercial Passenger Vehicle Business, commented on the development, saying the company looks forward to continuing its partnership with UPSRTC and supplying the chassis as per the corporation’s requirements.
This order is part of Tata Motors’ broader involvement in providing transportation solutions to various states across India.
