Tata Motors Expands Operations to Dominican Republic

Tata Motors has entered the Dominican Republic market through a partnership with local distributor Equimax, marking another step in the Indian automaker's global expansion strategy.

The company announced the launch on August 13, 2025, introducing four commercial vehicle models designed for the Caribbean nation's transport and logistics needs.

The product lineup includes the Super Ace for last-mile delivery services, the Xenon pickup truck available in single and double cabin configurations, the Ultra range of trucks (T.6, T.7, T.9) for urban logistics, and the LPT 613 tipper for construction applications.

These vehicles are positioned to serve segments including fast-moving consumer goods, e-commerce, food delivery, cargo transport, and infrastructure development.

Asif Shamim, Head of International Business for Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles, described the Dominican Republic as a market with growth potential that aligns with the company's expansion plans. He cited the country's developing economy and infrastructure as factors that create demand for commercial vehicle solutions.

Gabriel Tellerias, President of Equimax, said the partnership introduces vehicles selected specifically for local business requirements. Equimax will handle distribution, sales, and after-sales service through its network of service centers across the Dominican Republic.
