Tata Motors celebrates monumental milestone

Tata Motors hit the 1 million production landmark back in 2004. The next million units of its passenger vehicles were produced by 2010, and it took only 5 more years to manufacture a million more units. Tata rolled out its 4 millionth car in 2020 and it took the automaker only three years to produce the next million units despite the Covid-19 pandemic and global semiconductor shortage.
