Tata Motors has some really big plans for the Indian market. In 2019, the home-grown carmaker will introduce its two important products – the Tata Harrier SUV and the Tata 45X premium hatchback. While the former is slated to go on sale on 23rd January, the latter is expected to hit showrooms in the second half of 2019.
Besides these two products, Tata is also working on a new micro SUV that will gun up straight against the Maruti Suzuki Ignis and the Mahindra KUV100. Rumour has it that the new Tata mini SUV (codenamed X445) could be named Tata Hornbill. It might have its world premiere at the 2020 Delhi Auto Expo, followed by its launch.
