According to Mr. Shailesh Chandra, Managing Director, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility and Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles, said, “As the leading market for electric mobility in the country with 5.6% EV penetration, the people of Kerala have led the way in adopting future facing technologies, making it a clear choice for us to inaugurate our next set of premium Tata.ev stores in the state.

demands a premium ownership experience. To cater to this archetype, Tata Motors is committed to continue democratizing EVs for the mass market coupled with offering a sophisticated and digitized ownership experience.
