History
Tata entered the commercial vehicle sector in 1945 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 multi utility vehicle. Tata subsequently launched the Tata
Estate (1992; a station wagon design based on the earlier
'TataMobile' (1989), a light commercial vehicle), the Tata Sumo
(1994; LCV) and the Tata Safari (1998; India's first sports utility
vehicle).
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 industry. A newer version of the car,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 quantities of the car to South Africa. The
success of Indica played a key role in the growth of Tata Motors.

Tata's dependence on the Indian commercial vehicle market (which
was responsible for around 94% of its sales in the MHCV segment
and around 84% in the light commercial vehicle segment) and
expand its product portfolio by leveraging on Daewoo's strengths in
the heavy-tonnage sector.

Notable vehicles
Tata Ace
Tata Ace, India's first indigenously developed sub-one-ton mini-
truck, was launched in May 2005. The mini-truck was a huge
success in India with auto-analysts claiming that Ace had changed
the dynamics of the light commercial vehicle (LCV) market in the
country by creating a new market segment termed the Small
Commercial Vehicle (SCV) segment. 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 percent to 28,537 units due to the rising demand for
Ace. The Ace was built with a load body produced by Autoline
Industries.
[50]
By 2005, Autoline was producing 300 load bodies per
day for Tata Motors.
Ace is still a top seller for TML with 500,000 units sold to date
(June 2010).
[51]
In 2011, Tata Motors invensted Rs.1000 Crore in Dharwad Plant, Karnataka with the
capacity of 90,000 units annually and launched 2 models of 0.5T capacity as Tata Ace Zip, Magic Iris.
[52]

Ace has also been exported to several Asian, European, South American and African countries and all-
electric models are sold through Polaris Industries's Global Electric Motorcars division.
[53]
In Sri Lanka it
is sold through Diesel & Motor Engineering (DIMO) PLC under the name of DIMO Batta.
Tata 407
Tata 407, is a Light Commercial Vehicle (LCV) that has sold over 500,000 units since its launch in
1986.
[54]
In India, this vehicle dominates market share of the LCV category, accounting for close to 75% of
LCV sales.
