HM Ambassador

HM AMBASSADOR

The talks of HM Ambassador being on a comeback trail have been rife for quite some time now. HM is working on a new variant of the Ambassador which will be (cough!) more contemporary and practical than the Ambassadors that we know. Pune based Oneo design has been assigned the task of refurbishing the car and prototypes are already reported to be ready.
The new car will be powered by a modern 1.5-litre CRDi powerplant, which should infuse some life into this hitherto sluggish workhorse. The news of a compact (with slashed boot) version of the car is also doing the rounds, with an Amby car with short boot having been caught testing on the streets of Pune. The company is planning to slot the car into the small car bracket by engineering it at less than 4 meters length and avail the excise duty cut.
