Tata Motors is betting big on auto gear shift for its passenger vehicle portfolio and expects around 50 per cent of its products to have the advanced technology by 2020.

"Yes, we are looking at introducing AMT (automated manual transmission) technology in the future models. We have already showcased Nano AMT during the Auto Expo. By 2020 we expect 50 per cent of our product portfolio to have AMT technology," Tata Motors President and Head-Advanced and Product Engineering Tim Leverton told PTI

Besides, the company, which plans to launch 2-3 new products per year in the passenger vehicle segment in the next five years, is working on various alternate technologies like hybrids and fuel cell as it prepares itself to cater to the needs of emerging passenger vehicle segments.

Wonder why they have not launched AMT in Bolt yet?

Not just cars, even in Tata Commercial Vehicles. The company is clearly a believer of the technology. Here's a great discussion on CVs & AMTs - link.
