Sumo Grande (2008-2010)

The Sumo Grande is a Mid-size SUV developed by Tata Motors on the revised body-on-frame X2 platform with part of the rear end derived from the previous Sumo of 1994. Like the Xenon also the Sumo Grande was designed by Concept Group International LTD in the UK. The car was originally designed to be the second generation of the Sumo going to place in the Tata range lower than the Safari, however the old Sumo will remain in production because it still enjoyed a good sales success in India because of the list price reduced and consequently the Sumo Grande will support the previous model without ever replacing it. Part of the development was entrusted to IAV India Private Ltd.

Long 4,421 meters, just under the previous Sumo, the cockpit is available in seven and eight-seater configurations. The X2 chassis takes up the same front suspension of the Xenon, the debut engine is the 2.2-liter diesel common rail Dicor VGT delivering 120 horsepower,[1] 20 horsepower less than the Safari with the same engine. The car was offered only with rear-wheel drive to avoid internal competition with the Tata Safari. Aesthetically, the car has a five-door body, stylistically inspired by the previous Sumo but more modern. The interior instead is the same as that of the old Sumo. The third row of seats has a two or three-seater bench, while in the old Sumo the seats were single folding seats.[2][3]

Sumo Grande MK II (2010-2014)

The Sumo Grande MKII is a facelift of the previous version revised in many details[4], especially in the mechanics with modified rear suspension and more comfortable. The steering was revised because in the previous version had been criticized for being not very direct. A new front grille and new direction indicators are aesthetically adopted, with new faux wood paneling and new fabrics for the door panels. The 9-seater version also makes its debut with two folding rear seats.[5]

In 2011 Tata dropped the "Sumo" tag from the name and the vehicle was called simple "Tata Grande".

Tata Movus (2014-2016)

In 2014 with the facelift the name Sumo Grande is abandoned in favor of Movus to avoid confusion with the first generation of Tata Sumo left in production, but the characteristics of the vehicle remain unaltered. The changes are limited to interior trim and color range for the body only reduced to white and silver while the equipment is enriched. The engine remains the 2.2-liter Dicor common rail diesel 120 horsepower.[6][7] The Movus was official discontinued in 2016.[8]
