Below is Original Mercedes-Benz L-LK0311 Truck and above what TATA manufactured in initial days if this is not Rebadging then what is ??


Example of City Rover in the UK is pure LOL , it was declared worst Car in UK by BBC's TopGear .

Dude,try to understand,
The Mercedes Benz trucks were manufactured in Indian by TATA (then TELCO) as per their collaboration with Daimler Benz from 1954. They did not merely rebadge it, it was kinda license produced. The deal between the two companies were that, for 15 years TATA could use the Benz engine and had to put the Benz logo in the front. These trucks were called 'Tata Benz trucks' (TMB). From 1969,when the contract with Benz came to an end, TATA began producing the engines on their own (copies of Benz engines) started R&Ding their own trucks.

Rebadging is when you import the completely built unit and replace the logo and put in your logo, with little or no manufacturing/design efforts,just like in the case of City Rover. MG Rover imported fully built TATA Indicas from India, and with minor mods, slapped in their logos and began selling them as City Rover. Heck, how can the pics you posted as proofs of 'rebadged' trucks be right, when they are carrying the logos of the original company?

P.S:There's nothing to laugh out loud with City Rover example, it was not raised to highlight the quality of the car, but as an example of rebadging. Besides, City Rover was TATA's first try with the european market, and despite being panned by critics, it has demonstrated its reliability. Also, several models of Indian origin (Tata & Mahindra) has done pretty well in the foreign countries later.

You are the TATA guy.

But you surely didn't work anywhere closer to the engine assembly bays.

What he trying to say is most of R&D is outside work not an in-house work which is true to most of company with some exception means they are banking on huge cash reserve which they hold to buy outside technology

Which truck was it? - was it a 4x4 drive or 6x6 drive? The only dedicated TATA truck for personnel/troops transportation are the Tata 407 Troop Carriers in service with the ASC since 1986, available in hard top, soft top, 4×4, and 4×2 versions. I am sure you can recognize those - the followng has been used in Indian peacekeeping operations - was it the one?

Thats not the TATA 407 bro, its the TATA SA1212.

^^^These are the TATA 407 Troop carriers.
