JLR, Suzuki, Tata and possibly Ford are poised to export EVs from the low-cost vehicle centre of the world

Earlier this month, Tata Motors said it would build electric cars with its better-known subsidiary JLR at a plant in Gujarat, India, for export globally.

Meanwhile, Ford announced that it was going to restart production at its previously mothballed Chennai facility.
