Why Consider The Tiago EV XZ+?
For a premium of less than a lakh over the previous variant, the XZ+ amplifies the luxury quotient with the presence of goodies like cruise control, auto projector headlights, a reversing camera, rain sensing wipers and four tweeters making a total 8-speaker system as well as a height adjustable driver’s seat. It does not look like a stripped out variant as aesthetics are also improved with the presence of DRLs, wheel covers, LED turn indicators on the ORVMs, chrome on the inside amongst others. If you want a fast charger option with the Tiago EV, the XZ+ is the entry-level variant for the same.
