The most important men in India travel in ambassadors. Apart from comfort, one of the more pertinent reasons for the case is the fact that Ambassador was the first car manufactured in India. Based on the prototype Morris OxFord, ambassadors have been on the Indian roads since 1958.
Amazingly Ambassador's popularity has remained undiminished by the plethora of flashy cars that have been sprouted by the craze of globalization. Ambassador's unceasing run of success may be attributed to its being impeccably Indian- spacious enough for large families and durable enough for bad roads.
Ambassador comes in the following models-
1.5 Ltr Diesel- The model comes with plush seats, powerful engine and a heavy duty gear box.
1.8 Ltr Diesel- comes with 5-speed gearbox, an MPFI engine embedded with 16-bit electronically controlled unit and power steering.
