In the next five years, Tata Motors has set a target to introduce ten electric vehicle models. Shailesh Chandra, the managing director of Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, said, “It is an important opportunity for all of us. With Tiago EV, we are announcing the expansion of our EV segment. In the next few weeks, the company is planning to disclose details like Tiago EV's price and other crucial information. More than 40,000 Nexon EV and Tigor EV cars are plying on roads”.

Tata Motors also said that it is aiming to make India an electric vehicle hub. The Tata Passenger Electric Mobility (TPEM) in an association with TPG Rise Climate has introduced a mobility solution which aims to promote green rides. The union government wants that 30 per cent cars plying on roads should be electric vehicles by 2030. Chandra said that he is proud of that Tata Motors is playing a key role in India's EV market.
