History[edit]

Tata Group entered the commercial vehicle sector in 1954 after forming a joint venture with Daimler-Benz of Germany. After years of dominating the commercial vehicle market in India, Tata Motors entered the passenger vehicle market in 1991 by launching the Tata Sierra, a sport utility vehicle based on the Tata Mobile platform. Tata subsequently launched the Tata Estate (1992; a station wagon design based on the earlier Tata Mobile), the Tata Sumo (1994, a 5-door SUV) and the Tata Safari (1998).

Tata Indica (first generation)

Tata launched the Indica in 1998, the first fully indigenous Indian passenger car. Although initially criticized by auto analysts, its excellent fuel economy, powerful engine, and an aggressive marketing strategy made it one of the best-selling cars in the history of the Indian automobile industries. A newer version of the car, named Indica V2, was a major improvement over the previous version and quickly became a mass favourite. Tata Motors also successfully exported large numbers of the car to South Africa. The success of the Indica played a key role in the growth of Tata Motors.[7]

Initially priced at ₹100,000 (US$1,500), the vehicle attracted a lot of attention for its relatively low price. In 2018, Cyrus Mistry, Chair of the Tata Group, called the Tata Nano a failed project, with production ending in May 2018.[54]

Tata Ace[edit]

Main article: Tata Ace

Tata Ace, India's first indigenously developed sub-one-ton minitruck, was launched in May 2005.

Ace rapidly emerged as the first choice for transporters and single truck owners for city and rural transport. By October 2005, LCV sales of Tata Motors had grown by 36.6% to 28,537 units due to the rising demand for Ace. The Ace was built with a load body produced by Autoline Industries.[55] By 2005, Autoline was producing 300 load bodies per day for Tata Motors.
