Tata has launched its first all-electric hatchback, the Tiago EV. It is sold in four broad trims: XE, XT, XZ+ and XZ+ Tech Lux. The carmaker will open bookings for the electric hatchback on October 10 and will start delivering it from January.

Similar But Different

The Tiago EV is based on the facelifted Tiago and looks almost identical to the ICE (internally combustible engine) version. That said, it does get EV-specific revisions such as a closed-off grille, blue inserts all around, newly designed wheels, an updated colour palette, and ‘EV’ badging.

Inside, the only difference is that the Tiago EV gets blue accents around the AC vents and the instrument cluster and ‘Tri-arrow’ elements on the new leatherette upholstery. The Tiago EV’s equipment list consists of automatic climate control, rain-sensing wipers, a seven-inch touchscreen system, and connected car tech. Its safety kit includes dual airbags, a tyre pressure monitor, and cornering stability control.

The former gets a range of 250km, and the latter gets 315km (MIDC-certified). The Tiago EV also gets four-level regenerative braking and two drive modes: City and Sport.
