(while he was at16th position in 2014 and 15th in 2013), behind Mitsubishi, Changan and Geely, but before Subaru and Great Wall.
- Within the Tata Group, drop of volumes of Tata brand is the cause of this decline on the world market: Tata brand has lost 400,000 vehicles since 2011, and from 900 000 to 500 000 vehicles in 2015. Fortunately, the UK subsidiary luxury cars Jaguar / Land Rover rose sharply during this period, from 300,000 in 2011 to 500,000 vehicles in 2015.
- To boost sales of the brand Tata, the Indian group is negotiating with the Iranian manufacturer Iran Khodro in Iran to establish a JV to assemble some of its models from parts (CKD) from India. Tata would target production of 100,000 cars a year in Iran, with an activity that could start in 2018. This volume would represent between 5% and 6% of Iran's total production.
