The Vectra Group entered the truck-making business in 1993, picking up a stake in Czech company Tatra,” Rishi told ET on Sunday. That stake was not a controlling one and Tatra continued to change hands.

In 2001, the Czech government sold Tatra to US-based SDC International, an investment company, which in turn sold a 40% stake to Terex, an American manufacturing equipment company. Between 2001 and 2006, Tatra swung between meager profits and losses even as Terex was acquired.

Unique chassis is another key attribute of Tatra trucks.  The unique chassis notion has been endlessly bettered since 1923 – and until today successfully replicated by no one.

Finally, TATRA-stamped trucks, based effectively on the Tatra design notion, were hitherto not effectually imitated by anyone. Nonetheless, heavy trucks out of Koprivnice, are renowned for their go-anywhere ability in most arduous terrains under severe weather conditions, high reliability, and excellent utility assets. TATRA counters both glacial weather and aberrantly high desert temperatures.
