I am from the UK and I think this car would do pretty well. Would possibly have to be modified for European regulations for emissions, but this is a nicely styled little car and surely would be cheaper than anything else we have on sale. I would certainly buy one over anything Chinese.
TATA has a good time now and growing with everything...speaking about the car.. it's different from indica design cues... grills got newer... tail areas... bumpers changed....it's TATA jump to the new generation car lovers.....
+Sandeep Tudu Agree with your comment. But as i feel if looked closely, the headlights look a bit like the 2nd gen hyundai i20 headlights, only being shorter and smaller in the zica.
I love Tata cars. Strong and heavy. Feel confident while driving. Also low maintenance cost. I loved indica too for that matter. I'm not really a fan of tin boxes offered by Maruti or Hyundai.
I have Tiago XM diesel, I have owned Ertiga vxi, wagonr, spark, Eco, m800, I feel Tiago is very comfortable reliable and efficient. It seems you have reviewed this car without actually driving it, or may be there is improvement in 2018 model. I have done more than 4100 KM's in Tiago mostly on highway and hills it is very good car.
Its really a very nice looking car. i have already purchased a wagon r cng car for 4.7 L ex-showroom price before 4 months. If it would be launched that time i would go for ZICA for sure. You get everything in top variant of 4.75L. I mean just everything(ABS, airbags, front fog lamps, heavy weight car, good mileage, great design, great interiors, navigation system and many much more) - all feature which you will probably get in 5lacs + also its TATA so i am sure they won't use any cheap material in body like in maruti because Maruti and hyundai uses very cheap material. I mean if your car touches any other car at 20kmpl also then also you are not safe. But its not with TATA. Wagon r CNG kerb weight-875kg , Tiago- 1000+ kg. Next time for sure i'll go for TATA for sure People here are looking for AMT, i would say the AMT in celerio is not a great thing to offer there are many problems in that, you can google it. Sometime i feel cheated by Maruti but again due to its peace of mind and great service i am fine with wagonR . Go for Tiago guys.
Tata always talks much about its product rather than to concentrate on its marketing strategy..becus it launches its product with lots of noise but becus of lack in skilled salesmanship and customer feedback it cannot create a space in heart of every customer except who purchased a tata product.
+Anjali Jariwala Totally agree ! It is like small marketing strategy , they launch the product and then just leave them after a month ! For example new Tata Safari & zest which are the more better cars compare with their rivals. Tata Motors should work better after the launch of the any car. And i totally agree with the concern about lack of the customer feedback ! that matters a lot for making a good public image. Tata motors launch any car very tremendously but after the launch, they just lost the grip from the market. I hope Tata would work better for tiago. Its opportunity.
Really like the new intro video! Good job on that. And I have to say that car doesn't look like a tata car. This is one of the best looking cars Tata has launched, ever.
We test drived tiago amt every thing is fine but it's giving more power/sudden movement while starting. Hence it may out of control in city traffic. Can you explain why and how to control.
hello friend, i have a manual and tata tiago and it does the same too. i've noticed that turning on eco mode in tight traffic can reduce the jerking when in first gear.
ofcourse tiago but there are complaints regarding after sales service, but with the launch of this new hatch TATA is trying to sought out this problem as well
Swift costs more and for the price Tiago demands, it is a good car.You get a fully loaded Tiago for the price of base variant of Swift. That's a pretty good buy.
Thanks for your replies. We purchased a swift vxi abs and we are happy with the purchase. Its not about tiago, but overall i felt that if requirement is for dialy commuting, it is better to go for a small car like alto. They make life lot easier in this hyderabadi traffic. And can easily take turns and park easily. Saying out of experience :D
the air con is actual pretty good. I test drove the car so I can tell u that. the media drive for the car was held in Goa so the cooling would have seemed compromised..
i test drove the car today . Great work Tata motors its an amazing car . One flaw i have experienced is that the steering is very much vibrating in the petrol model does anyone had the same issue?
When i saw TATA Aria flagship launch, i was prefty sure they wanted to stop making cars. They had a stunning Xenon picup , an elegantly macho sumo grande and aged like wine whiskey, but chose a tortoise design for its flagship crossover! Good to see TaTa gettimg out of that misguided design element and coming back to its "more car per car" motto. Zeta atleast on all the videos seen looks impressive and looks like it manages a fit finish n quality that is as good as suzuki and Hyundai that holds this market segment. Hope TATA launches it with basic safety and with a AMT version. This one can really work if Tata wants to.
Why didn't you include hyundai grand i10 for comparison in the video and then straight away declare grand i10 the winner straight away, like you do in all videos
Tata is definitely putting out newer good and better cars, Zica can definitely complete with other 1.2 litre petrol cars with more features at lower cost.
Which is more refined engine, diesel or petrol? Is diesel engine is powerful compared to indigo indica or other cars in same segment? Do u feel power lack in diesel engine? Pls reply. I m decided to buy diesel engine top model
official figures are out starts with 3.20 for base petrol and 5.88 for top end diesel..no airbags or abs in base variants..not even option..opportunity missed..FE 23.3 in petrol 27.8 in diesel (claimed)
I think tiago is a best car in it's segment because of his features like harman music, good suspension and the best is seating comfort.The engine is clean and smooth a bit noisy and design is good based on new compact design by tata
hats off to Tata for this car especially the pricing we r getting 85 PS power 2 years warranty,dimensions far ahead of car of competing segment and starting price of 3.2l the proper road test results given on carwale website proves that it rides well too I would have bought one but I m a student now even we r getting tachometer and trip meter in the base varient what more to complain about
Along with it you are also getting a poor AC Unit, noisy diesel engine, trash after sales service and a big future maintenance bill with almost next to nil resale value.
NVH is good for a car in that segment. Celerio isn't noise free either. Drive the Celerio diesel and you will know which is noisier. Overall Tiago is a much better car in that segment. Maintenance might not be as bad as few say.
amazing car , amazing space inside cabin , excellent ride quality is what I can say about tiago after one day of my ownership .. It's a fun car I must say that Harmon connect next infotainment system is brilliant sounding .
+dixit thakur hey dixit. Can you please tell me about the cars engine sound and its pick up? and what all you frankly liked and disliked about tiago.I have booked one too ,so i was curious to know about its feedback.
+prathamesh singh pickup is good but engine is bit noisy and is comparable to other 3 pot engines . sound quality is nice and space is brilliant in cabin both front and rear .
+dixit thakur congrats bro to have a tata tiago how is the performance of this car please let me know because i want to buy this car how infotainment system is?wht abt fuel economy ?and wht abt noise ? does it produce lots of noise?
can anybody tell me if there's a clean air feature in it or not and if there is a front defogger? and is there any voice guiding nav as shown in the commercials???
just bought tata tiago and i m very happy to get all that at this price. i would specially like to mentioned about staring. its awesome. i was going for a car segment above but after driving this car for over 800 km it feel nice for this segment. 2 things i miss in this car alot. 1 is automatic rear vier mirror and 2nd a turbo charger still this car is very good and u cant even feel that its a three cilender car. music system awesome, ABS is shokingly good. well tata would have maid this car better but only by giving me my own messi as company fitted accessory.
+Pankaj Singh but i just wont to say one thing eco mode is completely useless specially when u reach over 80 km speed it feels like something is pulling u back. but in city mode motor becomes very powerful.
I have driven the petrol version in city. It gave an average of 13.kmpl. It was official as I had set the odo meter to zero setting b4 starting the drive.
U can refer tigor .Iam having it but engine noise is over inside the cabin .Overall it’s nice car for family.It is easy to drive in city with 17.4kml and if u go out on highway u must have to pull it tough.Petrol is better than diesel
Yeah I did a knock and punch test on Alto K10, Kwid and Tiago. My hand hurt when I punched Tiago, the other too felt like paper thin, they went in. Especially Kwid is pathetic
my car dealer didn't provide the remote control for infotainment in xz variant..they say tata motors itself not providing it for any car but in the manual it is explained how to use the remote.. tiago owners please clarify
If you drive a lot every day, then the diesel would be a better option because it'll be cheaper to run. But if you don't drive a lot everyday, then just get the petrol. Anyways I really hate diesel cars.
Heavy car at 1000 kg because newer cars are built with safety in mind. this is not a race car so as long as it drives nice who cares if it is ready to race or not
Hi Renuka, very nice review and since it's from AUTOCAR, it should have weightage. But i would suggest AUTOCAR to consider the quality of the product (Tiago) as well in terms of reviews. I am an existing customer of Tiago and own a diesel model. In fact i made a decision to buy the car after looking at your review 3 years back which i regularly follow. But i think my decision was wrong ,as recently car headlamps started having Micro cracks and when contacted the dealer for a solution, they bluntly say that it's out of warranty. Can you believe a car worth almost 6.5 lacs, with this kind of low or defect quality items being used. Tata might say that they have come a long way in terms of technology and quality, but with this kind of low quality and poor customer experience, they are not worth for consideration. I should have gone with Maruti Suzuki or Hyundai. Very SAD.
can anybody tell me why tata cars so heavy....,is that because they use heavy chassis or more iron in cars ,don't know ,can anybody help me ,why tata cars heavy weight wise ?
Thats because the tiago hasnt skipped on the safety aspect. The vehicle is heavy built and it not only meets the current safety standards but also the future ones. Besides, tiago has a strong roll cage so you are very safe if you unfortunately meet with a accident.
Sir, Will it reduce the mileage? Tiago -1030 Kg Celerio - 830 Kg i10- 961 Kg Brio- 920 Kg Swift- 965 Kg (Volkswagen Polo (Volkswagen polo has a Kerb Weight of 1033 kg; Ford Figo 995-1,015 kg)
Sir i appreciated your response .thank you a lot but i i dont get a clearcut answer as you are a expert .this the first vehicle in my family that is why we dont know very much about cars ..we do't know whether the features of tiago is of everyday use or not .sir i booked both the cars in petrol varients tiago has an top model but swift provide me lxi optional o with abs .i have a family of 5 members .sir i want a cars basically for family and home purpose .sir i request you to suggest a clear cut answer on one vehicle
TATA CARS are heavy on maintenance. Always go for Maruti or Hyundai. TATA has made some improvements but still it lacks in a lot of areas. After Sales service is total trash. I remember when I first sent my car for service they put and dent in it and the Service Center people denied their fault until I launched a formal complaint with TATA. Later they fixed my dent free of cost but added few more scratches to my 1month new car. TATA is a pathetic brand and I have decided to never to go with TATA even if they offer a car free of cost. Put some extra money and go for a brand like Maruti or Hyundai who are true value for money.
I purchased Tata Tiago. Within month there was problem in Doors, Windows, Paint, Charger, AC, Charger. Its 4 months but dealer not providing number. Don't go by specification and looks. Workmanship and service of Tata Motors is worst. Progressive Dealers in Ahmedabad Gujarat is third class. Once they sold there cars they don't worry about customer. They don't even pickup a call when customer call them. Even Tata Motors representative are very rude. They also don't even pickup a call when customer call them. Workmanship in second half maruti zen was much better than Tata Motors Tiago.
What he is sayin is true.. Tata cars are good but their service is worst. I wnet to emquire about tiago in tata showro in Pune but they didint even care to ask my name or number.
The worst buying experience or extremely painful experience with Tata Motors...!!! Taking advance from customer, forced customer to get loan...customer submit the loan approval letter..then customer hand over the bank cheque of the loan amount and the rest of amount also to the dealer but the tragedy is that there is no integrated communication between Tata Motors Management - The Dealer - & The Customer. Customer do lot of follow up with dealer - with Tata motors head office mumbai - & the person handling to those dealer but - NO CERTAINTY OF THE DELIVERY TIME. Nice car - worst management.
Im getting 23-24 kmph in highway and 16-19 in city depending on the traffic. After sales is satisfactory. Better than any other car in its segment. Il recommend it.
