The coronavirus crisis continues to gripple our country and several communities are struggling to come to terms with it. Over the last few weeks, several automakers have come forward with relief measures to support the government in their endeavor to tackle the situation. One among them is MG Motors who have already forwarded several relief measures in fighting this crisis and now, the company has gone a step further. MG Motors have donated a dedicated Hector ambulance for COVID-19 patients to the state of Gujarat.
MG Motor India today donated a retrofitted HECTOR ambulance version to healthcare authorities in Vadodara. Looking at the immediate need for support, the vehicle conversion was completed within a short span of 10 days and has been developed by MG India’s engineering team at Halol, in partnership with Ahmedabad-based Natraj Motor Body Builders. The Hector ambulance was handed over by MG Motor India and Jaydrathsinh Parmar, Gujarat’s Minister of State for Agriculture, Environment and Panchayat, to the CHC Halol hospital.
This Hector has been custom-built and comes with several life-saving medical equipment such as an auto-loading stretcher, an oxygen supply system with a cylinder, a medicine cabinet with five-parameter monitor, fire extinguisher, an exterior light bar with a siren and amplifier, an inverter with battery and sockets and additional interior lighting. There’s also a jump seat for an attendant, which is one half of the Hector’s original rear seat, repurposed to save costs.
