What's a bit uncommon for a vehicle in its class is that the Tata Super ACE Mint has an air conditioning option. The debate over this feature has become a hot topic among drivers and fleet owners in areas with extreme heat. Others say the AC is a game changer in driver comfort and productivity, and could justify the additional cost and the slight reduction in fuel efficiency. Others argue that it's a luxury you don't need and it adds to maintenance costs and reduces your payload capacity. They also talk about whether the AC is powerful enough to actually make a difference in the small cabin, especially during long shifts on stop and go traffic. And while the conversation often includes talk about driver health and safety, some say a comfortable driver is a more alert driver. But skeptics wonder if the AC's benefits are really worth the negatives in a vehicle whose main purpose is to be utilitarian and cheap.
