Tata Passenger Electric Mobility, a subsidiary of Tata Motors has launched its new brand identity, TATA.ev, for the EV business. This new identity is aligned to Tata Motors' commitment on sustainability and pioneering innovation as well as Tata Group’s focus towards community development.
The new brand identity embodies the core philosophy of "Move with Meaning," unifying the values of sustainability, community, and technology. It is the first step towards providing differentiated and meaningful experiences for customers in the form of a collective initiative to move towards an electric future that is better for the planet and its inhabitants.
As the EV offering grows, spurred on by surging consumer demand and a robust, thriving product lineup, customers expect a unique experience across all touch points, from the brand to the product and its ownership cycle. TATA.ev identified a clear need for a new consumer-facing brand identity that strengthens commitment to the future of mobility.

The brand personality is humane, honest, invigorating, and conversational – a rallying point for those curious about having a better impact on the world.”
The brand identity of TATA.ev, developed with Landor & Fitch, reflects the brand platform 'Move with Meaning' with sustainability at its core. All design decisions are purposeful and deliberate in the same spirit as the brand strategy. The visual design embodies Move with Meaning and is accessible, open, and environmentally friendly.
- The Orbit: The ".ev" in the logo mark is enclosed within the Orbit. The dot pattern from Tata Motors' branding is now made of larger circles in a distinct grid.
