With the Tatamobile 206, the Indian automaker acquired 25% of the market share in the light commercial vehicle segment.

[2] The Tatamobile 206 is a mid-size pick-up produced on a flexible body-on-frame chassis (called Tata X2 platform[3]) in both short wheelbase (single cab, 2 seats) and long wheelbase (crew cab, 5 seats) with rear or four wheel drive: the 4WD version has a higher ground clearance for improved off-road use.

In Italy, it was sold as the Tata Pick-Up in single and crew-cab form with two trim levels: base level and Orciari, a more equipped version built by Italian firm Orciari with two-tone paint, front bull-bar, alloy wheels, air conditioning and a more refined interior.

[8] In 2006 Tata introduced to the Indian market the 207 DI EX,[9] a single cab version with flat load body and long wheelbase.

In Europe the new 2.2 litre Dicor turbodiesel common rail engine Euro 4 that produce 140 horsepower was introduced.

Developed in 18 months, the new generation of the Tata pickup uses an evolution of the previous body-on-frame X2 platform.

Given the success of the previous Telcoline, the new generation Tata realises a product intended primarily for export to many countries including ASEAN, EMEA and Merconsur.

The final name chosen by Tata Motors is Xenon to avoid confusion with the previous Telcoline remaining in production.

[14] In Europe, it is equipped with the new 2.2-litre Dicor turbodiesel common rail Euro 4 producing 140 horsepower and a 5-speed manual gearbox.
