Automotive

The automotive sector accounts for roughly 16% of all European steel consumption, and for a rapidly growing proportion of steel demand in India and other developing countries. Steel makes up more than half the weight of a car and is used not only for the body and chassis but also the powertrain, gearbox, wheels and tyres.

Tata Steel provides numerous steel products to all the major vehicle manufacturers and component suppliers. Sector specialists with in-depth understanding of the global automotive industry work closely with customers from the initial design stage of a new vehicle.

Tata Steel is continually developing a wide range of steel products and new, higher-performance products that offer improved formability and corrosion resistance, ductility, affordability and advanced high-strength steels. These steels offer significant weight loss – and thus greater fuel economy and lower emissions – without compromising structural strength.
