Tata Technologies Displays eMO EV at CIMdata PLM Road Map™, Releases Paper: ‘PLM Transformation: Program Management Framework” Showcasing Work with Jaguar Land Rover
Tata Technologies displayed its electric MObility (eMO) engineering study EV at the CIMdata PLM Road Map™ 2012 event Oct. 2-3, in Plymouth, Mich. eMO made its world debut at the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS), in Detroit, in January 2012. Tata Technologies also will release six PLM-focused whitepapers at the event including “PLM Transformation: The Program Management Framework,” showcasing the PLM transformation initiatives at Jaguar Land Rover supported by Tata Technologies, and it will demonstrate the innovative application of PLM software solutions that supported the creation of eMO.
“The eMO project symbolizes the coming of age of Indian automotive engineering,” Warren Harris, Tata Technologies President and COO said at its NAIAS debut. “It is a tangible example of the capability of Tata Technologies to engineer a full vehicle – a first for any India-based engineering services company.”
The eMO architecture emphasizes “right size” personal urban transportation by minimizing its exterior footprint and maximizing interior space. With sustainability in mind, eMO benefits from a low carbon footprint and a recyclability strategy. The business case underpinning the eMO project sets the MSRP at the disruptive price point of $20,000, before tax incentives or rebates.
