Tata Motors' chief executive said that he has increased his electric vehicle portfolio with new models and higher prices to solidify its lead as India's top-selling electric vehicle (EV) company. 

Tata also plans to offer a range of electric vehicles, including a shorter range for driving within the city, to meet the needs of multiple buyers.

The company showcased 12 cars, including 5 electric models, and 14 trucks, including one powered by hydrogen fuel cells, deepening its drive for clean vehicles.

Shailesh Chandra, managing director of Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles and its EV subsidiary said those cars included electric versions of the popular SUVs Harrier and Sierra, as well as a concept car based on a new electric vehicle platform due to launch in late 2025.

Tata, which has sold 50,000 electric vehicles, dominates the electric vehicle market in India, backed by government subsidies and high import tariffs, and plans to launch 10 electric vehicle models by March 2026. It outlines the plan.

India's car market is small relative to its population, with electric vehicle models accounting for only 1% of total car sales of around 3 million a year, but the government aims to increase this to 30% by 2030.

Tata Motors' dominance is also due to its cooperation with other Tata Group companies, such as Tata AutoComp, which supplies EV components such as batteries and motors, and Tata Power, which is building charging stations in cities and along highways.

Automakers are looking at ways to locally produce and source more components, such as battery cells and motors, and are also exploring potential export markets for electric vehicles.
