    Deutz has partnered with Tafe Motors and Contractors, an Indian agricultrual group to "further develop alternate drive systems and expand the internal combustion engine business" it says. 

    As part of the partnership, Tafe Motors will manufacture up to 30,000 Deutz engines in 50-75 horsepower and 75-100 horsepower under license. The aim is to "augment and complement the wide range of engines made by the Group across emission standards" the company says.

    The engines will be produced in TAFE Motors’ modern manufacturing facility at Alwar, Rajasthan in India.

    Deutz will use the Indian manufacturing base to market its engines in neighboring markets benefitting from advantages in production and logistics.

    “The strategic cooperation with TAFE Motors secures DEUTZ access to growing markets with strong potential and long-term prospects,” explains Dr. Sebastian Schulte, CEO Deutz in a statement. “It also enables us to continue producing at competitive costs in the future and makes us less dependent on the existing supplier landscape."

    “This strategic cooperation between Tafe Motors and Deutz will be mutually beneficial, as it will offer access to shared resources and technologies to produce engines that complement TAFE Motors’ and the Group’s existing range to meet the demand for both domestic and international markets," said Sandeep Sinha, CEO Tafe Motors, in a statement. 

    Both parties are reportedly exploring opportunities to expand their cooperation to green drives.
