Tata Motors R&D facility, UK
Tata Motors confirmed its long term commitment to advanced research and development in the UK through the participation of its subsidiary, Tata Motors European Technical Centre (TMETC), in the National Automotive Innovation Campus (NAIC).
TMETC will be joined in the NAIC project by its partners, Jaguar Land Rover and the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) at the University of Warwick, which will be built at the University campus and is set to become a national emblem of automotive R&D collaboration, innovation and excellence in the UK.
The NAIC will receive funding from Tata Motors of around 30m Pound, alongside the support of its partners, Jaguar Land Rover, WMG and the UK Government's Higher Education Funding Council England (HEFCE).
Set to be a research hub, the NAIC will create and develop novel technologies to reduce dependency on fossil fuels and reduce CO2 emissions.
Construction of the NAIC is scheduled to begin in September 2014. The building will have state of the art engineering workshops, powertrain and vehicle engineering laboratories, and the latest advanced design, visualisation and rapid prototyping technologies, tailored to facilitate the research and New Vehicle Concept Development phases of the Tata Motors lifecycle model.
