Tata Safari Storme for Indian Army
Tata Motors will supply 3,192 units of the Tata Safari Storme 4x4 to the Indian Armed Forces, under a new category of vehicles, GS800 (General Service 800). The Indian Ministry of Defence (MOD) had earlier floated an RFP for vehicles with three basic criteria: minimum payload capacity of 800 kg; hard roofs and air conditioning. Developed indigenously, the Tata Safari Storme 4x4 has completed a total trial duration of fifteen months in various terrain across the country, demonstrating its performance in most demanding conditions with capabilities of coping with extreme on or off-road terrains. Tata Motors has so far supplied over 150,000 vehicles to the Indian armed forces.
