"Unlike existing electric vehicles, Indica EV will be a more practicable option for the consumer; capable of carrying four people, adequate luggage space, with a predicted range of up to 200 kilometres and acceleration of 0-60 kmph in under 10 seconds," Tata Motors said in a statement.

I think this statement supersedes that. They can build a solid base in India which is a huge market, and then grow into Europe, Asia and eventually north American Over time. And via the advent of time comes new and breakthrough technology.
