Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles (TMPVL) is strengthening its focus on software-defined vehicles (SDVs), a new generation of cars where software plays a central role in managing vehicle functions. The company plans to use its proprietary t.idal architecture as the foundation for future vehicle launches.
According to Tata Motors' FY26 annual report, the t.idal platform will support the company's transition toward separating software from vehicle hardware. This approach will allow vehicles to receive new features, updates, and performance improvements through over-the-air (OTA) software updates throughout their lifecycle.
The company has developed a phased roadmap to gradually move toward more advanced computing systems and integrated electronic architectures.
Tata Motors is working closely with technology partner NVIDIA to develop advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS) and artificial intelligence capabilities for future electric vehicles.
These technologies are expected to support features such as:
The company is also using NVIDIA Omniverse tools to improve vehicle design processes and create digital replicas of manufacturing facilities.
To support its software-driven transformation, Tata Motors invested ₹2,836 crore in research and development during FY26. Out of this, ₹1,936 crore was spent on capital expenditure.
The investment focused on:
A major highlight during FY26 was the launch of the new-generation Sierra. The vehicle is built on Tata Motors' ATLAS (Adaptive Tech Forward Lifestyle Architecture) platform, which supports multiple powertrain options and advanced electronics.
While ATLAS serves as the vehicle's physical architecture, the t.idal platform will act as the software layer powering connected services, OTA updates, and other digital capabilities.
Tata Motors plans to continue expanding its portfolio across internal combustion engine (ICE), CNG, and electric vehicle segments.
Chairman N Chandrasekaran said the company is entering FY27 with confidence, supported by a strong pipeline of upcoming launches and multiple powertrain options.
Managing Director and CEO Shailesh Chandra highlighted that SUVs are expected to remain the primary growth driver, while demand for CNG and electric vehicles continues to rise.
The company reported strong growth across alternative fuel segments in FY26:
