Climate Policy Engagement: Tata Motors receives a grade of D in InfluenceMap’s assessment of corporate engagement on climate change policy, indicating misalignment with policy to deliver the Paris Agreement.
Forecasted 2030 Production: 56% of Tata Motor’s light-duty vehicle production in 2030 is forecast to be electric vehicles (55% battery electric vehicles (BEVs), 1% plug-in hybrids, and 0% fuel cell electric vehicles (FCEV)). This compares negatively to the IEA’s 1.5°C scenario, which estimates that 66% of all car and van sales must be electric (BEV, PHEV or FCEV) by 2030 to meet a 1.5°C global temperature goal.
Climate Lobbying Overview: Tata Motors has mostly negative engagement on climate policies globally in 2022-24. While the company appears to have broadly positive positioning on vehicle electrification in India, its subsidiary, Jaguar Land Rover, has engaged negatively on a number of automotive policies globally, including the UK’s ICE phase-out target and light-duty GHG emission standards in the US.

Tata Motor's forecasted vehicle size: Larger vehicles are a significant cause of increased GHG emissions from road transport, with smaller vehicles across different technologies generally producing fewer emissions. Tata Motor’s 2023 combined percentage proportion of SUVs and light commercial vehicles is approximately 81%, however this proportion is projected to decrease to 74% through 2030.
Tata Motor's electric vehicle production compared: 56% of Tata Motor’s vehicles produced in 2030 are forecast to be electric (battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids or fuel cell electric vehicles), compared to an average of 53% for all automakers.
