Tata Sumo

Automobiles

The Tata Sumo is an SUV that Tata Motors produced in India from 1994 to 2019. Launched in 1994 as a ten-seater rear-wheel-drive vehicle designed mainly for military use and off-road transport, it sold more than 100,000 units before 1997. It rode on the body-on-frame Tata X2 platform shared with the Telcoline and used a 2.0-litre Peugeot XD88 diesel engine built under licence in India. The name honours Sumant Moolgaokar, a former managing director of Tata Motors. In the Indian market the rear-wheel-drive version went to civilian buyers while the four-wheel-drive version was sold to fleets and the army. The range later grew to include the cheaper Sumo Spacio from 2000, the Sumo Victa from 2004 and finally the Sumo Gold.
