The first in line of the Prima trucks is the Prima 4028S tractor with a 266PS Cummins ISBE engine bearing a 9 speed ZF transmission. Korean domestic market variants of the Tata Prima are equipped with either HD Hyundai Infracore made engines (older models), or newer Cummins ISMe 440 Euro 5 engines, or IVECO FPT Cursor 11 480 Euro 6 compliant engines. The tractor is available in Saudi Arabia with 380hp with 44 ton capacity and 4×2 configuration,[2] The tractor also has ABS and dedicated axles along with a trailer to aid in heavy goods transportation. Besides focusing on the mechanics, the tractor also focuses on driver comfort which include an air-conditioned cabin with reclining seats, arm rest and an adjustable steering wheel. Global Positioning System (GPS) is a standard feature. It has some of the features like dual-clutch which are not present in some of the trucks in its price range. There are ten major variants in the Prima range which include trucks, tractors and special application vehicles.[1]
Korean version was facelifted in 2017. In February 2020, BS-6 version of tata prima was introduced by tata motors at Asia's largest motor show. It is equipped with the Cummins ISBE6.7 which has 250 and 300 hp variant. And it replaced by new Tata Daewoo Maxen range in 2022.
In 2022 Tata launched a facelift for their prima tractor with ADAS (Advanced driver-assistance system) which became the first Indian truck to have it, this included lane departure warning, forward collision warning and more. The cabin was also updated with fatigue monitoring system. On the exterior, the edges of the cabin were squared off compared to the older version.[3]
