2021 Tata Safari Gets Country’s Largest Billboard at Mumbai Pune Expressway
Advertisement or marketing is the only way to grab the attention of prospective buyers. A few years back, Jeep and Tata Tata Motors indulged in a war to place big billboards on Mumbai-Pune Expressway. Now, Tata has placed a new billboard on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway of the new-gen Safari. The hoarding is humongous in size, the largest we have ever seen for any car advertisement. This advertising billboard measures 28,000 plus sq. feet. The hoarding is visible from quite far away on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway.
This video has been uploaded on Tata Motors' YouTube channel, which shows how the massive billboard lights up at night and looks eye-catching. It’s not the first time that Tata Motors has placed such a massive car hoarding on the Mumbai-Pune Expressway. Earlier, when the carmaker was in a fight with Jeep, they put a sizeable billboard of the Harrier measuring 27,500 sq. feet. The size of the Tata Safari billboard is 225 feet wide and 125 feet tall. The automaker used 265 tons of steel to build the advertisement hoarding.
