Tata Motors is planning big for the next five years. This Indian automaker will be introducing ten new electric cars by 2027. The electric era has begun all around the world. In India, Tata is currently leading in the electric vehicle segment. Tata Motors is holding more than eight percent of the electric vehicle market share. To maintain its dominance and be the leader of the Indian electric vehicle market, Tata will come out with ten new electric cars. These cars will help the brand to be a big player among all the new entries of EV brands. It is believed that with the new launches and new brands in the race electric vehicle segment, Tata will lose a huge market share.
Well, the global electric market is way too ahead of the Indian market as there are already several contenders for the leader’s position. Companies like Volkswagen, Toyota, Hyundai, Ford, Tesla, etc are already in the major race. The trend for electric vehicles started earlier in the global market, especially in the United States and Europe. The American market is also famous for the better reach of pickup trucks. These brands have maintained good records while selling electric trucks as well. However, the Indian market is not good for pickup trucks. We will see how Tata Motors will focus on its long-term plan and what is their current status in the market.
