Tata Motors rolls out Tiago for Rs 3.2 lakh

In a big make-or-break push, Tata Motors on Wednesday launched the much-awaited hatchback Tiago, with prices starting from Rs 3.2 lakh and claimed a mileage of 24 kmpl for the petrol model and over 27 kmpl for the diesel variant.

Apart from high-end features that beat premium models in the segment, Tiago comes at unimaginable price points. While the 1.2-litre petrol model with 5 variants comes at Rs 3.2 lakh for the entry level and Rs 4.75 lakh for the top-end, the 1.05-litre diesel model with five variants is priced between Rs 3.94-5.54 lakh.

The petrol model offers a mileage of 23.84 kmpl and the diesel one a staggering 27.28 kmpl, both the highest in the segment, the company said.

“The Tiago is the game-changer for the company that has been struggling with supplier and dealer issues apart from steeply falling sales,” Tata Motors CMD Guenter Butschek said while launching the car.

The car comes on a completely new platform (new Revotron 1.2-L petrol engine and the first 1.05-L Revotorq diesel engine), and will be rolled out from Sanand plant in Gujarat.
