Tata Motors sets new record by delivering over 700 EVs in a single day

Tata Motors has become the first Indian automobile maker to deliver over 700 EVs in a single day. The deliveries were done in Maharashtra and Goa on the occasion of Gudi Padwa. The company delivered 712 EVs which included 564 Nexon EVs and 148 Tigor EVs to individual customers in Maharashtra and Goa.

Tata Motors also crossed another benchmark earlier this month after reporting sales of over 3000 EVs in a single month. The figure of 712 deliveries in a day is bound to take Tata Motor’s EV sales numbers further in April.  Tata Motors reported that it has a market share of 87% in India and over 21,500 Tata EVs are on road to date.

According to Vivek Srivatsa, Head, Marketing, Sales and Service Strategy, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd. “As India treads towards electrification in mobility, Tata Motors takes pride in being the market leaders in this space by providing thoughtfully packaged products that are helping customers #EvolveToElectric. Today’s occasion of delivering 712 EVs in a single day to customers across Maharashtra and Goa (a milestone achieved by a 4 wheeler manufacturer in India) is a feat we are ecstatic about. It not only proves the successful inroads that Tata Motors’ EVs have made in the personal mobility space but also stands as a testament to the value and confidence customers are seeing in them. Tata Motors is constantly working towards educating and enhancing the adoption of electric mobility in India and we hope that this occasion sets an example for other states to join and support India’s green wave.”
