Manufactures the widely popular models – Tiago and Tigor

With a flexible assembly line, the plant today manufactures Nano, Tiago & Tigor models spread across 21 variants with 150 vehicle combinations.

Operating at 100% capacity utilization, Tata Motors successfully rolled out its 500,000th passenger vehicle unit on October 23, 2018 from its Sanand factory located outside Ahmedabad. The Sanand facility plays a vital role in the company's passenger vehicles portfolio, manufacturing the widely popular models - Tiago and Tigor; the latter was recently launched in an all-new avatar.

Keeping up with the Government of India's vision to bring electric vehicles in India, the Sanand plant produced the first electric passenger vehicle for commercial use in the form of Tigor EV and continues to support deliveries of the Government-operated Energy Efficiency Services Ltd. (EESL) order.

Speaking on this occasion, Mayank Pareek, President, Passenger Vehicle Business Unit, Tata Motors said, "We, at Tata Motors, have been working aggressively towards our core strategy of Turnaround 2.0, aiming to ‘Win sustainably in PVs'. A lean manufacturing process plays a key role in our growth strategy enabling the Sanand plant to contribute around 60% of the overall PV production. We are extremely proud of achieving this milestone within our planned timeline. This is the result of the hard-work put in by our dedicated workforce. The plant has evolved to become a modern, state-of-the-art facility and is playing a pivotal role meeting aspirations of Tiago and Tigor customers."
