Tata's Jamshedpur Plant = 20 lakh Milestone

Tata Motors’ Jamshedpur plant marks a red letter day with the rollout of its 2 millionth truck. 

This factory manufactures Tata’s entire range of medium and heavy commercial vehicles. That includes over 200 truck variants, ranging from multi-axle trucks, tractor-trailers, tippers, mixers and special application vehicles. 

The Jamshedpur facility was Tata Motors’ first, set up in 1945, to manufacture steam locomotives. It led the company’s foray into commercial vehicles in 1954. 

The main assembly line rolls out one truck every 5 minutes. The engine assembly shop manufactures the Tata 697 / 497 naturally-aspirated & turbo-charged motors, with a capacity of supplying up to 200 engines per day.
