The objective is to increase footfalls at the dealer outlets for test drives across top
20 cities in India. And for this the strategy is to develop high impact creative with
large units (in the face) and attract attention of netizens. Also, to attract people
aged 25 to 35 who could be potential customers of the Indica V2.
Tata Indica V2 Petrol Test Drive' online campaign

16. Promotional Strategy
We saw that there was a larger chunk of potential customers who were more glued to
the internet rather than print and electronic media — particularly the office goers in
private companies and the professionals," he said. '"Online allows us to skew our
presence geographically and generate foot falls.

20. If you get inside an Indica and you get inside a
competitor, it’s pretty obvious that the Indica is a
class bigger.
It is designed to be the most spacious small car
but priced like a small car. It is designed to be
the most powerful small car but to be
economical and affordable.
We have a fairly young group of designers - the
average age would be about 28-30 years. A lot of
them have come from the National Institute of
Design and the Industrial Design Centres of IIT.
