Tata Motors may not have any EVs on sale for the public but has been strategising the integration of their electrical-powered Tigor incrementally, through various other channels. The first batch, as part of the government tender for 10,000 Indian Made Electric Cars, are still being delivered to government agencies.
The home-grown auto giant announced another tie-late last year up with self-drive rental car firm Zoomcar to offer the electric version of its compact sedan Tigor in Pune city as part of the shared mobility plans. Under this partnership, Zoomcar expects to deploy 500 electric vehicles in over 20 cities this year. Also, in January Tata Motors announced its collaboration with technology giant Capgemini for supplying the company with Tigor EVs.
