New Delhi, Apr 27 (UNI) Vehicle maker Tata Motors today said it has signed a contract for supply of 3,192 units of its Safari Storme 4x4 version to the Indian Armed Forces, under a new category of vehicles - GS800 (General Service 800). Commenting on the recently bagged order, Vernon Noronha, Vice President, Defence and Government Business, Tata Motors said, “Tata Motors has been a leading supplier of mobility solutions to the Indian Armed Forces and this order is a testimony to our partnership with the country’s security forces. This variant of the Storme has been modified from the one available for civilians with an upgraded drivetrain and significantly modified suspension. The Safari Storme was conceived and designed keeping in mind the need for a rugged, comfortable and reliable vehicle, making it popular with law enforcement agencies. We will shortly commence delivery of these vehicles for the Army and Navy in a phased manner.” Introduced in 2012, the Safari Storme boasts of superior on-road and off-road capabilities and robust all round performance, providing the customers with an un-matched driving experience.
