Manasi Tata has been named as the new vice chairman with immediate effect by Toyota Kirloskar Motor (TKM). After the unexpected passing of Vikram S. Kirloskar, the former vice chairman of Toyota Kirloskar Motor, she was appointed to the position.
She will also assume the position of Vice Chairperson at Toyota Kirloskar Auto Parts (TKAP).
Manasi already participates in corporate decisions and strategic operations at Toyota Kirloskar Motor Private Limited as a member of the board of directors.
“I’m eager to make my experience with Toyota Kirloskar Motor more fulfilling. We will continue to offer the best value not only for customers but also for the entire system, from suppliers to dealers, with my personal belief of putting people first, Mansi stated.
“As a young business leader, Manasi Tata brings with her open-mindedness and a focus on people, which are essential in our quest for excellence in all spheres. This will further reinforce TKM’s commitment to bringing “Mass Happiness to All,” according to Masakazu Yoshimura, managing director and chief executive officer (MD & CEO), of Toyota Kirloskar Motor. She also has a keen understanding of the Indian auto sector.
