Sanand Plant is a passenger vehicles manufacturing facility located in Chharodi village of Sanand taluka in Ahmedabad district, Gujarat, India; owned and operated by Tata Motors. It is also their newest car manufacturing facility and manufactures popular hatchbacks like Tata Tiago and Tata Tigor. Initially it was started to manufacture the Tata Nano, but now it manufactures other hatchbacks like Tata Tiago and Tata Tigor. The plant reached 100% capacity utilization in 2018.[1] Tata Motors rolled out the 3,00,000th Tiago manufactured at Sanand plant in 2020.[2] The 1 Millionth car manufactured at this facility was rolled out in March 2024.[3]
The manufacturing plant is spread over 1100 acres. It started as a single model plant in 2010 for manufacturing only the Tata Nano, and has gradually emerged to produce multiple models with a flexible assembly line. Today, the plant manufactures popular Tiago & Tigor models.[4]
This plant played an important role in the development of the automobile industry in the state of Gujarat. After Tata Motors invested in Sanand, multiple automobile manufacturing plants have come up in Gujarat - Suzuki Motor Gujarat, Ford India, MG Motor India, Hero MotoCorp, Honda Motorcycle and Scooter India, etc.
Tata Electric Mobility is planning to acquire a second plant in Sanand from Ford motors as the current Sanand plant has reached 100% capacity.[5][6]
