Tata Motors Sets New Passenger Vehicle Sales Record

Mumbai/New Delhi, February 1, 2026 – Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd (TMPV) has set a new benchmark in India's automotive sector by recording its highest-ever monthly passenger vehicle sales in January 2026. The company dispatched a total of 71,066 units (domestic and international combined), reflecting an impressive 47.1% year-on-year growth from 48,316 units sold in January 2025.

This outstanding performance has reinforced Tata Motors' strong standing as the clear No. 2 player in India's passenger vehicle market, driven by surging demand for its SUVs, compact offerings, and electric vehicles.

What’s Driving This Success?

Tata Motors' January triumph aligns with rising SUV adoption, accelerating EV interest, and a robust product portfolio spanning affordable hatchbacks to premium SUVs. The company's focus on innovation, safety, and "Make in India" manufacturing continues to resonate with buyers across segments.
