Cost Breakdown of Tata Ace- A Low-cost LCV From India Targeted at Global Markets
Low-cost trucks Market: Cost Breakdown Analysis – Tata Ace (India), 2010
• The high net profit margin of well-established models such as the Tata Ace is because of incremental gains from a project beyond break-even point, large economies of scale, only variable costs and minimal additional investments that result from a phenomenal level of sales
• The dealer margin is significantly less for low cost trucks like Ace, but the dealers are compensated by the high volumes of sales

*The chassis and cabin shell are one single unit
• Tata Motors has already proposed it will use an electric Ace to foray into the tougher United States market
• In India Ace is powered by 16bhp diesel motor which complies Bharat II and Bharat III emission norms. These Aces are built on Indian platform and are currently being exported to many countries like Brazil, Africa etc.
• Considering tougher European norms, Tata Motors has worked in collaboration with the technical support of Archimedes Energy Inc. and Ecolori SpA to develop an electric heart for the ace.
• Ace Elektro is powered by asynchronous motor which produces 30KW of peak power and a maximum speed of 120 km / hr.
• Melian Italy is the sole importer and distributor of Tata Motors in Italy
• Tata Ace uses Li-thio-polymers which means lighter battery and hence increased mileage. Ace Elektro also makes use of advanced regenerative braking which means it can recover energy while slowing down and braking
TATA Ace Elektro – Low-cost Base Platform Can Enable Creation of Cost-Competitive Electric Ultra-Low GVWR LCVs: Targeted at Launch in European Market Offering Strategically Priced Electric City Trucks.
Expected Launch Price: Between US$ 9,000 - 11,000

Others
Chassis Design
8-10 Liter, 240-280 HP
Need for smaller engines than comparable
conventional trucks.Cost advantage expected for western OEMs due to
in-house vertical integration.
9 Speed
9 speed transmissions are appropriate today
but also enough to support the next
generation of low-cost HCVs.
Hydraulic power-steering, air drum

China and India markets will grow and
mature towards demanding higher GVWR engines.
It is important to accommodate the
features necessary for meeting local fleet
manager and driver demands and local
regulatory demands.
$65,000
Payload: 16-25 TonWheelbase: 3500 to 4500mm
$65-70K is the base minimum necessary to
create a baseline platform that features globally harmonized
technologies/systems .
Market Attractiveness- North America: Market Offering Openings to Low-cost HCVs
Reasons for Entry
Barriers to Entry
Product Positioning
Target PriceRecommendation
• Wide open price gaps in LCV, MCV and HCV segments. • Need for powertrain downsizing and lower HP engines. • Recessionary environment.
• Stringent emission and safety regulations• Strong position of local OEMs • Need for unique designs in MCV and HCV segment• Entry in HCV segment limited to intra-urban and intra-regional segments (day cabs, short-cabs, etc.)
•$16-20K for LCV•$32-40K for MCV •$70-85K for HCV
Steep regulatory barriers
•LCVs with 1.8-2L engines and HP 120-140 with 5 Speed manual transmission.
•MCVs with 5 liter plus engines with 200+ HP and 6 speed transmission.
•HCVs with 16-25 Ton GVWR, roughly 250-300 HP 8+ Liter 9 speed transmission (non long-haul type applications)
