Today, one of India’s largest automobile brands, Tata Motors, announced that they have won the order for supplying over 200 units of their four-wheel-drive SUV to the Bangladesh Armed Forces. The company will be supplying the Hexa XT 4×4. Tata was able to bag this deal, as it has been selling passenger vehicles in Bangladesh since 2012 and is currently amongst the top two best-selling passenger vehicle brands in Bangladesh. The Tata Hexa units which are currently being made for the Bangladesh Army are exclusively available for the use of the Armed Forces and won’t be available for purchase in the passenger market in Bangladesh.
After severe and continuous testing of the product for months, Tata’s Hexa stayed strong throughout the testing stages and to met all the requirements and specifications of the Bangladesh Army. Tata was able to win this order against other competitive SUV brands and this has been the first key order from the Bangladesh Army. The superior performance of the Tata Hexa, the better comfort features and widely available service and spares in Bangladesh made the car the most preferred brand for the armed forces. The Indigo eCS, Tiago, Nexon and GenX Nano are the only Tata models available in the Bangladesh market.
