If they do, will they rebadge?

Jag and Land Rover seem to be doing okay.

Will they become Tarts in a Tata

Or Tanias

Aren’t Scania and MAN quite close these days, and therefore under VW Ownership? I’ve seen a few Scania’s with MAN rear lights on

Wouldn’t bother me who owns Scania at all. Fair play to the Indians at TATA, about time they started seeing some of the money go the other way. Perhaps they’ll spend some of it on the power grid over there, half the country in blackout at the moment, 6 million people, cheers :unamused:

No scania is far superior in every way… Although i’d prefer an MAN.

Don’t they look crap as well? They look good on the MAN’s as there’s a bit of trim that rounds it out on the inside, on Scania’s it looks like a blind 4 year old has stuck them on wonky with a big blank space on the inside where a bit of trim should go, give me the old rear lenses any day.

Here you go.

The two major stockholders of Scania AB (publ) are:
The German automotive company Volkswagen AG is Scania’s biggest shareholder, with a 70.94% voting stake (equity) in Scania. It gained this by first buying Volvo’s stake in 2000, after the latter’s aborted takeover attempt, increasing it to 36.4% in the first quarter 2007, and then buying the remainder from Investor AB in March 2008. The deal was approved by regulatory bodies in July 2008. Scania then became the ninth marque in the Volkswagen Group.
The German truck manufacturer MAN SE holds a 17.37% voting stake in Scania. Notably, Volkswagen AG also owns a 29.9% voting stake in MAN, acquired in Q1 2007.

I can’t see them renaming Scania TATA, I bet they buy it and keep it as Scania
Like the car firms have done and just run under Scania brand

I suppose at the very worst they could rename Scania to ■■■■.!!!

My car is in the garage for servicing and they have given me a Tata while it is there and i can honestly say it’s the biggest heap of ■■■■■■■ junk i have ever had the misfortune to drive.
Marks out of 10 ’ i dont even give it one, whoever said third class riding is better than first class walking is wrong in this case.
