Tata small car to make way into smaller towns

KOLKATA: The small car from Tata Motor's stable will make its way into smaller towns where the company does not have a marketing network.
"We are upgrading our offices in smaller towns in districts where we currently sell only commercial vehicles to accommodate the Tata small car," Tata Motors dealer, Lexus Motors Ltd director Binod Agarwal said here today.
"We will upgrade or open our dealership in Diamond Harbour, Baruipur, Uulberia, Krishnagar, Habra, Chinsura and Barasat," he said.
In West Bengal, Tata Motors dealerships of cars were restricted to metros and big towns. "Upgrading of our districts officess is been done as the small car will rollout in 2008," Agarwal said.
Agarwal said as the small car would be more affordable, the company was expecting demand from the smaller towns. The construction of the small car plant at Singur and that of vendors was on in full swing. Sources said Tata Motors had lined up four to five models from Tata and the Fiat stable for unveiling.
