The Indiva is actually a pretty old concept. Tata had first displayed it in the Y2000.

I think it was just that.....a concept. And an experiment.

Actually I've seen quite a few (~3) MPV shaped vehicles carrying the TATA badge being tested in prototype stage (complete camouflage, stickered and bandaged up) on the Expressway-Aundh Bypass road. Too bad I didnt have my cameraphone on to snap a picture.

visually they looked similar in size and dimension to the failed Mahindra-Mitsubishi MPV (I forget the name) that was introduced a couple of years back.

It was displayed at the Geneva motor show 2002. I remember reading abt it in the April 2004 issue of Overdrive. I fondly remember that issue coz it also had a full article on the 2004 R1 and the pics were so gorgeous, every free minute I had while working was spent in gazing and dreaming abt that bike

The Indiva like so many other Tata concepts is too far from reality.

Anyone remember that roadster / coupe Tata was supposed to make ?? I forgot the name.....

Even the Silhouette concept was ridiculous to say the least... I was completely put off by it.

Those are real lousy engine specs - may not mirror any real-world plans Tata might have

@Power, I think it was "Voyager "

The car looks good but do we really need another " Honey I shrunk the Innova" looking car

@wolfinstein: Yes that was the Voyager.

Tata's seem to smell a market in that MPV segment. Maybe they'll come up with a Innova look alike at Innova - 3Lakh price tag. VFM formula.

The Mahindra-Mitsubishi MPV about which you say is obviously the Mahindra Voyager as other T-BHPians have pointed out.

The MPV which u see testing is a MPV which Tata is contemplating to launch based on the Renault Traffic Van (previous generation, I guess) sold in Europe. Refer recent Overdrive issue for more details.

Tata showed many concepts earlier. Remember the Aria, a pretty looking convertible Sportcar and a huge sedan on the lines of the Honda Accord.
Nothing saw the light of the day. I guess they should spend more time, effort and money on improvising their current basket of cars or trucks, if I may say. (No offence to any owners)

Concepts are just showoff pieces to display what a manufacturer is capable of. If all Indian car concepts became production cars, we would have had the best cars in the world.

Tata has been talking of building an MPV[van] on the ace platform.Would not be suprised if it were maruti van like than being innova like.

Besides everything else, I am a bit circumspect about those specs. A car so heavy and macho looking with just 53 horses on the reign?!!! Uhuh... does not sound so good mate.
