Tata Nano very likely to launch in Indonesia in 2013; 8 product launches planned
News from Indonesia today. The automotive market this year will be crowded with the arrival of new cars from India especially from Tata who will come in the form of ‘PT Tata Motors Indonesia’.
The company will launch various vehicles in various segments from the second quarter of this year.
Tata Motors Indonesia President, Mr. Biswadev Sengupta said that they are interested in the Indonesian automotive market as the growth of the domestic auto sector was enormous. “Indonesia’s automotive market is still resilient to the crisis, the future will be very promising,” he claims.
He says he was not afraid to compete with Japanese auto manufacturers that have mastered the automotive market in Indonesia. “Our market is different, after all, we want to build the Tata brand in Indonesia,” he opines.
As the third largest automobile manufacturer in India, Tata will take about seven to eight products to Indonesia this year. The products will be targeting both, the commercial vehicle segment, and passenger cars segment (hatchback). “The hatchback segment is growing rapidly in Indonesia and we will go with two to three products in this segment,” Mr. Sengupta says. We suspect it could be the Nano, the Indica and the Indica Vista.
Meanwhile, in the commercial vehicles front, Tata will introduce three products in the pickup segment – the Tata Super Ace, Tata Ace Ex, and the Tata Xenon RX.
An assembly plant in that region is also being mulled this year. This plant is targeted to operate in two years.
Tata is also looking for a number of local component providers for the automobile assemblies. The plan is for about 40% local components in cars from Indonesia.
In the meantime, Tata will sell cars imported from Indian factories. The Tata Nano which is on the probables for Indonesia this year will command a higher asking price as the burden of import and sales tax on luxury goods will fall on it.
In order to support sales, Mr. Sengupta said that Tata will set up 10-15 dealerships based in Java and Bali to begin with.

Tata Motors considering a 1 billion Euro investment in Romania?
The largest Indian auto maker, Tata Motors is reportedly considering a full fledged production facility in Romania, the homeland of Dacia.
According to the report by Dailybusiness.ro, Tata Motors is interested in investing in an industrial park named Tetorom 3. The third phase of the industrial park promoted by Cluj County Council (CCC) has a total industrial land of 154 hectares in the village of Jucu, near Cluj, Romania.
Report suggests that Tata Motors is negotiating a €1 billion investment with CCC but due to the manufacturer’s request for discretion in the process, there is no official comment from the county authorities. However, it is learnt that the Indian auto maker is considering a huge investment on a plant which could sprawl over 24 hectares of land in Jucu.
The proposed plant is expected to be a full fledged production facility which could cater to passenger cars, commercial vehicles and buses. The plant could source the components from the local vendors which could give them tax benefits.
With the new plant in place, Tata Motors can build the next generation Nano which will comply with European quality and safety norms along with CKD operations of Manza, Safari and Telcoline UVs. The commercial vehicle lineup would include the Prima trucks which were developed in association with Daewoo.

Tata Motors plans to sell Nano cars in Malaysia
Tata Group's airline plans in tie-up with Air Asia is not just the only news emerging out of the two partners.
While Air Asia will help Tatas dust their nearly 20 year dream of reentering aviation, the company will also allow Tata Motors to step up their reach in Malaysia, Livemint reported
Tata Motors will launch first its Nano car in Malaysia and take other vehicle brands such as Ace, Magic and Winger. A formal announcement is expected soon on the venture.
Tata Motors has hit a jackpot overseas with its acquisition of luxury car maker Jaguar LandRover. While the success of JLR has helped generate profits for Tata Motors, the Indian unit that makes volume vehicles is struggling. In January, the company sold less than half of the number of vehicles it sold in January of 2012.
The Malaysia plan could expand its reach in the southeast Asian market, largely untapped by Indian automakers.

Wiper arm on the Nano looks better than Indian one, are we so inferior to them?
No they are providing what market needs. We need "Kitna deti hai" car. We will adjust on quality but FE should be good. ![[lol]](https://www.theautomotiveindia.com/forums/images/smilies/Laugh.gif "Laugh [lol]")

Tata Motors kick-starts exports of Prima range of medium and heavy trucks to Sri Lanka
India's largest truck maker, Tata Motors on Wednesday launched its global range of Tata Prima in the Sri Lankan market along with its partner, Diesel & Motor Engineering PLC.
Prima range is the most technologically advanced range of trucks developed by the company to cater to some of the overseas market.
The models introduced in Sri Lanka are the Tata PRIMA 4023 LX ( 4X2), Tata PRIMA 4923 LX (6X4), Tata PRIMA 4028 ( 4X2), Tata PRIMA 4938 (6X4), Tata PRIMA 4038 (4X2) and the Tata PRIMA 4928 (6X4), which are primarily targeted at container movement, cement transportation & the gas logistics across the island. In their power, speed, carrying capacity, operating economy and trims, they will introduce new benchmarks in Sri Lanka and match the best in the world in performance.
Ravindra Pisharody, ED, Commercial Vehicles Business Unit, Tata Motors, "The Tata PRIMA range is an output of collaboration across the Tata Motors family, supplemented by inputs from partners across the world. The revamped infrastructure in Sri Lanka makes it possible for transporters to reap the benefit of the Tata PRIMA trucks with higher power, speed and carrying capacity. This new range from Tata Motors will meet the changing needs in the Sri Lankan market."
The new range will offer much needed support to medium and heavy truck exports for Tata Motors, which saw a significant dip in shipment of over 35% in April to February of FY-13 to 6,685 units versus 10,258 units sold by the company in FY-12 for the same period.
Since they are advanced range of trucks, they are likely to positioned in the premium end of the Sri Lankan market. The launch has culminated with the transformation which is taking place in Sri Lanka as reflected in the revamped infrastructure of world-class ports, expressways & new economic hubs being developed.
The Tata PRIMA range comprises Tractor-trailers, Tippers, and Special Application vehicles which can meet varied end user requirements.
The Tata PRIMA has been jointly developed by Tata Motors and its two subsidiaries, Tata Daewoo Commercial Vehicle Company, South Korea and the Tata Motors European Technical Centre PLC, UK. The company has harnessed the best of inputs and technologies - in styling, engines, transmissions, suspension, chassis frames, fabrication and dies -- from partners based in countries like Italy, Germany, Sweden, United States of America, Japan and South Korea.
