Typical Power Outputs:

Ranging from approximately 100 HP to over 170 HP, depending on engine variant and configuration.

Typical Torque Outputs:

Torque figures vary significantly by engine, generally starting from around 250 Nm and exceeding 400 Nm for higher output variants.

Fuel Type:

Diesel (Euro 4, Euro 5 standards prevalent in these years), Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) for specific variants.

Injection System:

Common Rail Direct Injection (CRDI)

Emission Standards:

Covered models adhere to Euro 4 and Euro 5 emission standards, including details on Diesel Particulate Filters (DPF) and Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) systems for diesel engines.

Procedures for diagnosing and troubleshooting the Engine Control Module (ECM) and its associated sensors and actuators.

🔧 Transmission

Transmission Types:

6-speed manual transmission is a very common standard.

Transmission Types:

Automated manual transmission (often referred to as 'Agile' or similar branding) may be available on certain models.

Drivetrain:

Rear-wheel drive (RWD) is standard. All-wheel drive (4x4) options are available for specific professional and off-road applications.

📐 Dimensions

Wheelbase:

Variable, with multiple wheelbase options (e.g., short, medium, long) to suit different body styles and cargo requirements.

Overall Length:

Highly variable based on configuration, from around 4.5 meters for short wheelbase versions to over 7 meters for long wheelbase panel vans or chassis cabs.
