Tata Motors is entering into an agreement to obtain automotive technology from Chinese manufacturer Chery, according to four sources with knowledge of the arrangement, as the Indian automaker works to revive its delayed premium electric vehicle initiative.
The Indian company, which leads the country’s electric vehicle market, will utilize Chery’s technological framework to manufacture electric cars domestically under its upscale Avinya label, with plans to produce a minimum of two vehicle models, according to three sources. The initial model is scheduled to debut in 2027, the sources indicated.
The collaboration represents Tata’s strategy to accelerate its premium electric vehicle offerings after encountering setbacks in its original timeline.
