Design
Looking at the front, the Aeris Pure Plus has a very sleek-looking face, with halogen headlamps, a blacked-out panel connecting the headlamps, and the Tata logo in the centre. It gets a redesigned bumper with a sculpted look to it. It is similar to the lower Pure trim as well.
In the profile, the Aeris Pure Plus gets stylised 14-inch hyperstyle wheels for the CNG variants and 15-inch hyperstyle wheels for the petrol variants, a shark-fin antenna, which is added in this variant, body-coloured door handles, a blacked-out B-pillar, ORVMS with turn indicators, and the Aeris badge on the front doors. Overall, the silhouette is similar to the outgoing Tigor compact sedan.
At the rear, the Aeris Pure Plus gets the new connected LED taillamps, the Aeris badge on the boot, and an updated rear bumper with reverse parking sensors.
Overall, the exterior is very similar to the Pure variant in terms of design.

A fully digital driver’s display, which is standard across the variants, is placed behind the steering wheel with a floating effect. The dashboard also has a textured finish on the AC panel, which looks good. The power window switches also have a chrome finish, which does make it feel more premium.

CarDekho Says..
The Aeris Pure Plus for this price has a good equipment list, which offers you features such as an 8-inch infotainment system, cruise control, and a front centre armrest, which is added in this trim. In terms of safety as well, it has a tyre pressure monitoring system and electronic stability control, which will make a difference in day-to-day scenarios.
It is a step-up from the Pure variant of the Aeris; for someone who wants these added features and safety equipment but doesn't want to spend more than Rs 8 lakh, they can get the Pure Plus trim of the Aeris, instead of the higher-priced Creative variant.
Overall, if you are looking for a compact sedan in the price range of Rs 6 lakh to Rs 8 lakh and want features such as an in-built infotainment screen, a CNG powertrain with manual or automatic transmission, you can surely consider the Aeris Pure Plus variant.
