India's Tata Motors to invest up to $4 billion over 5 years for EVs, new cars
June 9 (Reuters) - India's Tata Motors (TAMO.NS), opens new tab plans to invest up to 350 billion rupees ($4.1 billion) over the next five years, aiming to cement its position as the country's top electric vehicle maker amid rising competition and a push to adopt clean cars.
The maker of the Nexon and Punch sport utility vehicles will nearly double its portfolio from eight models to 15, launch more EVs and compressed natural gas cars as well as enhance the vehicles' technology features, according to its investor day presentation released on Monday.
India, the world's third-largest car market, is planning stricter emission norms starting 2027 and wants EVs to form 30% of all car sales by 2030.
Tata Motors did not share its investment plan for the current year to March 2026, but said last month the domestic businesses, including commercial vehicles, would have a capital expenditure of about 80 billion rupees.
Intense competition in the combustion engine market has allowed rival Mahindra & Mahindra (MAHM.NS), opens new tab to overtake Tata. China's MG Motor (600104.SS), opens new tab has also challenged Tata's EV dominance with the "Windsor" model, outselling its products since late last year.
Yet, Tata Motors maintained its target of 16% market share by March 2027, aiming to reach 18%-20% by March 2030.

Here's your chance to own three different Ferrari Daytonas… for £6m+
Here's your chance to own three different Ferrari Daytonas… for £6m+ Need a new daily, summer cruiser and track toy? RM Sotheby's latest auction might appeal Skip 18 photos in the image carousel and continue reading Turn on Javascript to see all the available pictures. 1 / 18 The Ferrari 365 GTB/4 'Daytona' is famous for several reasons: the stunning design, its 174mph top speed (a production car record in 1968), and because the soft interior and predictable handling made it a grand touring supremo. Courtesy of RM Sotheby's, a unique opportunity to own three gloriously kept variations of the Daytona has now appeared, including a Berlinetta, Spider and Competizione. Very nice… but do consider they're likely to cost a combined fee of at least £6m ($8m). Yikes. Advertisement - Page continues below It's estimated that Ferrari made 1,284 Berlinettas, and this one's 2,000-mile odometer count makes it one of the freshest examples in existence. Finished in 'Rosso Chiaro' (red) over a 'Nero' (er, black) interior, it's a sumptuous piece of car design. From the iconic front strip and pop-up headlights, to the tiny five-spoke alloys and protruding quad-exhaust pipes, it's got serious presence. Beneath the long, sweeping bonnet sits a 4.4-litre 'Colombo' V12 mated to a five-speed manual transmission, sending 347bhp and 318lb ft to the rear wheels. 0-62mph is sorted in five-and-a-bit seconds. Mighty outputs, even by today's standards. Then there's the $2m Spider, which is arguably even more gorgeous than the Berlinetta. And considerably rarer, since production amounted to just... 121 units. This one gets wire-spoked 'Borrani' alloys and a colour-matched front strip, and is believed to be one of only six Spiders to get a lick of 'Rosso Dino' paint complete with beige upholstery. It's also the last convertible Ferrari to use that famous Colombo engine. The trio concludes with the race-bred Prancing Horse: a Series III 'Competizione'. 15 were factory-built, and the one in question DNF'd at Le Mans in '74, but went on to win the GT Class at the Daytona 24 Hours the following year. There's pedigree, alright. Advertisement - Page continues below Changes over the standard Berlinetta include a front lip with vertical fins to boost aero, wider rear wheel arches and lighter body panels made of steel. Mechanically, there's an improved compression ratio and sharper timing, billeted steel pistons and connecting rods, plus revised exhaust manifolds. There's also four fuel pumps as opposed to two, and air ducts fitted ahead of the thicker stoppers for better cooling. That V12 also gets a hefty power bump to 450bhp, so it should be a good laugh on the various global classical events you can enter it into. Though we're not sure how you'd feel about lugging your precious $5.5m vintage racer around Cadwell Park on a rainy Thursday night… Top Gear Newsletter Thank you for subscribing to our newsletter.
