Tata Group Chairman Ratan Tata said his company would be, "delighted to launch the Tata Aria internationally as well as in India if it manages to create enough excitement." The 140 horsepower Arai will likely be beaten to market by other variants of the Indica, specifically a wagon version, sedan and small SUV. Chairman Tata has ambitions to sell in the U.S. market but no plans at this time.
