Mahindra 305 Orchard

After extensive evaluation, the Tata Ace Pro successfully modernises the iconic "Chhota Hathi" platform with Petrol, Bi-Fuel (CNG + Petrol), and EV powertrain options. Its 750 kg payload capacity, 6.5-ft cargo deck, and compact dimensions make it highly effective for last-mile logistics, e-commerce deliveries, and urban transport operations. The Bi-Fuel variant delivers an impressive 32.44 km/kg mileage, while the EV offers up to 155 km range with operating costs as low as ₹1.25 per km, making it the most economical option for fixed city routes. Backed by AIS-096 compliant safety, Fleet Edge telematics, and Tata Motors' extensive service network, the Ace Pro offers strong ownership value. While features such as power steering and air conditioning are absent, its affordable starting price, low running costs, and proven reliability make it one of the strongest entry-level mini trucks for small businesses and first-time commercial vehicle buyers.
