Tata Van Insurance
Tata, one of the oldest and most-known names in India, is not necessarily just in the automobile market. However, the fact persists that Tata Motors TELCO one of Tatas companies, produces cars for the large Indian market, and has since 1945. Because the brand name and the company name is old and named after a knighted Indian, the mark is invariably trusted in India. Probably the greatest success Tata Motors can claim is the Indica V2 which remains Indias only fully locally-produced and designed passenger car. In addition, Tata Autocomp Systems is a peripheral auto components company.
Tata Motors is Indias largest auto company and produces the most commercial vehicles in India every year. Among its vehicles are compact and midsize cars, SUVs, and medium-to-heavy commercial vehicles.
Additionally, Tata Motors made history in 2004 when it was the first Indian engineering company to make listings at the NYSE. That same year, it acquired Daewoo Commercial Vehicles Company which was a player in the South Korean truck-makers market. Not stopping there Tata has also recently acquired a large stake in Hispano Carrocera, which builds buses.
Though not yet a major player, as evidenced by its zero share of the American market, Tata cars are sold in Europe, Africa, and widely across Asia. Most of Tatas plants are in Asia and Africa, with a limited number in Russia and former Soviet republics like Ukraine.
Besides the Indica, Indias first home-built car, Tata recently launched the Ace which just like the Indica, was an indigenously developed truck (mini-truck). This once small company now employs over 22 000.
Commercial and military vehicles produced by TATA include the following : Commercial vehicles: Tata Ace, Tata TL/207 DI (pickup truck), Tata 407, Tata 709 E, Tata 1109 (Intermediate truck), Tata 1510/1512 (Medium bus), Tata 1610/1616 (Heavy bus), Tata 1613/1615 (Medium truck), Tata 2515/2516 (Medium truck), Tata 3015 (Heavy truck), Tata 3516 (Heavy truck), Tata Novus (Heavy truck designed by Tata Daewoo).
