Wagh discusses Tata Motors’ latest India-first truck launches, including the new 8.5-litre mining engine, AMT-equipped heavy-duty tippers, and European-level safety upgrades across truck cabins. He also shares the thinking behind Tata Motors’ full commercial rollout of electric trucks, built on a modular architecture developed using real-world customer data, and where electric CVs make the strongest business sense today.
The discussion also touches on India’s cost, engineering, and scale advantages, Tata Motors’ global ambitions, consolidation trends in the commercial vehicle industry, and how partnerships such as Iveco fit into the long-term strategy. Wagh concludes by outlining his moonshot for India’s CV industry: building globally competitive, profitable, and future-ready trucks from India.
