DESIGN ELEMENTS, HISTORY AND EVOLUTION OF TATA LOGO
Shape of the Tata Logo
Tata Motors is widely credited as India’s largest commercial and utility vehicle manufacturer. The Tata logo is seen on countless passenger cars, ambulances, coaches, cement mixers and dump trucks.
Tata Group underwent a re-branding process in mid-1998. All of their products featured the all-new three-dimensional Tata logo before early 2000. Its origin traces back to the Indica car brand which incorporated a straight-lined “T” in the ring.
The hugely popular blue-colored Tata logo was designed with the help of Wolff Olins, a world-renowned London-based branding agency.
The Tata logo symbolizes fluidity and adaptability. It is also said to depict a fountain of knowledge, or a tree of trust under which people can take shelter.
