According to the company, the Magic Express ambulance is designed to support medical and health-related services, which assumes significance especially during the Covid-19 pandemic. Tata Motors says the compact dimensions of the vehicle enable easy manoeuvrability on Indian roads, resulting in speedy movement of patients requiring emergency care.

The Magic Express ambulance comes with essential equipment including an auto-loading stretcher, medical cabinet, provision for an oxygen cylinder, doctor’s seat and fire extinguisher along with internal lighting, flame resistant interiors and an announcement system. The ambulance is equipped with AIS 125 certified retro reflective decals and a beacon light with a siren.
The driver and patient compartments are separated by a partition wall, which increases safety, especially while transporting Covid-19 patients. It is powered by 800cc TCIC engine, which develops 44hp of power and 110Nm of torque.
