Faisal, do you think Tata will ever be able to make a good petrol engine? Or will they just sell EVs with Chinese batteries, and lobby against hybrid cars because they don't have a hybrid engine?
I have a doubt. All people are complaining the 1.2 revotron NA engine in tiago and altroz. But no one complains the same engine in tigor or punch. I don't understand the logic. Can you please brief on that. I have a tiago with same engine. It is good enough for my requirement but I am curious about this perception of other.
@@ayush885 I don't feel the need for hybrid cars which are just as efficient as a revotron engine but lobbying with fake high mileage advertisements. Have you ever been in a nexon. Drive a nexon before commenting tata doesn't make good petrol engine. Suzuki also doesn't make good engines and to make it feel to perform better they compromise on build quality. Tata on the other hand gives better efficiency and build quality with low performance characteristics.
Honestly speaking, this seems to be much VFM for city usages, office reaches, groceries, etc. Also, it's safety is going to be much very much appreciated compared to the Maruti Suzuki WagonR EV which is pending to be launched from ages! TATAs are making some really remarkable products these days! Well done
Is it really VFM? The only version worth buying is the long range fast charging variant which is around 12 lakhs on road Bengaluru. 12 lakhs for a tiago, seems very steep considering you can pick up a top spec Altroz for nearly a lakh less.
@@jayntdhhond4176 Yeh kya bath hui bhai free main kon mang rha hai...shi toh kaha hai 12 lacs woh bhi Tiago ke liye aur woh bhi bas city ke liye boht hi bakwas hai.. Haan Jiske pas andha paisa ho woh lee sakta hai sensible banda nhi lega ... City wagera main alto ya WagonR le lega 6 6.5 lacs main aur baki petrol ka kharcha...
Perfect city car for office goers. A good choice as a 2nd car too. Small dimensions, ample space for 4, adequate range for multiple office trips, great build quality, Low NVH and ridiculously low cost of running and maintenance. Icing on the cake is the perfect pricing, at 9L this seems far better value to money proportion when compared to a petrol hatchback. This will be a smash hit in the urban and suburban areas. The only downside is range as it cannot be used for outstation trips.
Faisal i think u r the most real automobile enthusiast i ever seen. Like u r doing a old car reviews at the same time a Bugatti Chiron review. Dt's show how passionate u r in your job.
Hey Faisal, great to see you in Goa haha. This car feels like the perfect choice for just commuting considering the price and battery capacity. Seems like the best choice for travelling a dozen kms a day and back.
Good and informative video, value for money car for all ranges. Let me add a few more negatives, 1. No electric fitting allowed in tata EV models that will void warranty. So cannot fit reverse sensors for XZ+ and camera in lower variants. 2. Cost cutting in some areas like missing motor front bay EV badging shield that we see in tigor or Nexon, no boot space lamp (can't fix as per point 1) 3. Auto dimming irvms (expected in 10+ lakhs car) but can be ignored with other sets of features. 4. Need to charge at home after 2 or 3 DC charging, not 100% dc charging support as Citroen ec3. 5. No real TPMS (only iTPMS available) as available in the New Tiago ICE version. 6. No proper hill to assist, need to rely on hand break on slopes. Unlike ICE cars it doesn't work like half clutch apply. 7. under steering there are exposed wires, and 8. lastly detailed fit and finish is not done Even with this all, Tata is dare enough to bring an affordable car to Indian market.
Hey Faisal you posted about the Tiago EV as the cheapest EV in India created a big chaos in the Community Section. So please make a video about one thing that you don't belong to the Marketing department of Tata and you are a automobile vlogger. I was keep on supporting you but people are just talking stupendous with out any knowledge and common sense AF. Anyways loved your vlog/video. Just make a video about this thing. Thanks
@@NemysisPrime Bro just visit his community bro. Many people are forcing him to use Affordable instead of Cheap. This means that people are treating him as the marketing agent of Tata right?
A tip for that pulsating beep: once you open the driver side door and get the keyphobe out of the car, it only beeps if you shut the door. So keep it open ; )
Thanks Faisal sir I was looking for battery details whether it is lithium or lithium phosphate battery. Lithium phosphate battery which has minimum 2000 charge cycle if we consider battery range 150-180 km per charge car with this battery can clock 3-3.6 lakh km easily. Kudos to Tata Motors.
Faisal I am a great fan and regular viewer of your videos. I believe only you are the person who can help me find the best choice for taking a long time decision of getting a car. Please guide me, whether I should choose citroen C3 EV or MG Comet EV or anything else with good leg room. I spend 45k+ every month on petrol so want to shift from petrol to EV. Accordingly please suggest. Best car in 10L-12L range. Waiting for your reply.
Had an issue with my Karizma R when bought in 2009, even after a thorough PDi check after a week there was an issue with the second gear . Bike won't go into 2nd gear that was my hard-earned 85000 / rs back then and my dream bike finally bought it and had a problem. But I stayed focused and calm and went to the service center and they were kind enough to fix the problem. I thought new bike and they are opening engine , but they knew what they are doing also do your own research as well and no matter what Stay Positive and Calm .
Faisal you are really a true automobile journalist because you tell everything purely I like your ev car is not future video the way you tell the truth I also feel the same that ICE cars are feeling ❤️
What happens if it rains heavily? Battery pack will be submerged in puddle water(I mean come on, we live in a pothole country). Will it not be hazardous because of that?
tata ev is very good for middle class families. tata ev range is 220 -315 it is good but if the persons weight more than 400 kgs then what about range plz tell
Had an accident running up the road kerb this morning. The car undercarriage caught on fire and burned vigorously. The door lock was jammed but luckily me and my son was pulled out by the passer by. Thought to support local EV but the car quality and safety is just poor luckily I still have my life.
I wonder people's r using electricity everywhere and getting benefited also.. But when it comes to vehicles they starts walking back... Y? Don't u think we r doing racism on vehicles. Every one deserve some chance... And we should give it. My nxt car is ev... 😊
Yeah but haven't you seen mobile phone batteries? They deteriorate in just 3 years. Same goes for this EV. They are selling cheap because they use cheap materials, after 3 years you will hardly be getting 120km per full charge.
@@dark420passenger nope it won't behave as such at all since these are completely different than your phone batteries. Plus you have 7 yrs battery warranty, if backup falls somehow you'll get a new replacement free of cost.
@@ashutosht10 you may have 7 years of battery warranty but on what terms and conditions? Only if the battery totally fails. Warranty doesn't cover the deterioration, if the battery is able to charge and provide you 120kms range then tata will say battery still works so no replacement. These experiences when it happens first hand only then you will know the pain and sufferring of going back and forth with tata after sales service.
Now I'll be waiting for TATA NANO EV which I think will give longer range like 80 kms 😂😂 But I think companies must focus on range instead of giving more torque or power . Reason behind my advice is very simple , i.e. range anxiety... Range anxiety forces people to ignore power & torque and other stuffs offered in car !
And also I can't understand why all the EV makers, the more EV the car, the more they'll offer electricity consuming functions and features and tons of DRLs and disco lights and what not 😂 So that your battery drains faster than ever and you get stranded in the middle of nowhere 😂
Hi?, I really like ur channel, because of your detailed vlogs and videos and whenever I see a new car launch i immediately go to our channel to see if you have made a review about it
21:47 do you know if the break lights are applied in this case? It's actually something a lot of EV' engineers forget to do. The "one pedal mode" deaccelerate car so fast that the break light should be applied as the vehicle is slowing down more than natural deaccl
EVs in India doesn't make much sense now. In the foreign market atleast you get obvious performance advantages for the premium you are paying ,with more reliable charging infrastructure. Here you pay premium to get a subpar range with no real performance improvement and totally unreliable charging infra. It makes sense only as a second car for the upper middle class that is okay with onetime lump sum investment but want to keep monthly expenses down. I mean there is no ev under 20L that can comfortably do a 300km trip without sweating your pants. And for all people that say drive with a light foot ,keep it under 60 , switch off ac ..i mean why spend this much to drive your car like a scooter.. Although i agree it will get better over time, right now it doesn't make sense
The battery information sticker made me so happy. They are using off-the-shelf standard IFR32135 15ah Lifepo4 cells! . This pack should be user serviceable if u know what u are doing. And Lifepo4 has a lot longer life cycle than lithium ion. Lifepo4 does not catch fire even if u pin a nail through them they are way more stable but they are less energy dense and weighs more but for a city car with tiny battery the cycle life is more important here. The whole battery has 100 cells in series and 5 in parallel. For 320v 75ah. If the cells die and u ran out of warranty and tata asks too much for replacement, u can buy the cells directly from china. And make your own pack if u have the expertise.
I was also expecting lithium ion battery which has 1000 charge cycle and Lithium phosphate battery has minimum 2000 charge cycle if one get 150-180 km per charge battery should have 3-3.6 lakh km battery life.
@@deepakatray21 you would generally get 3000-6000 cycles cus car manufacturers do not let the battery discharge down to 0%. They would stop at 90% - 80% (on display it would say 100% discharged ). & You would never realistically get the car down from 100-0% for city use it would generally be around 10-20% discharged then recharged again at the end of the day. So calander life would effect the battery more than cycle life unless it's used as a taxi. You would be replacing it every 10 years or get a new car by then. Actually i would say do not buy ev unless you are a taxi driver and your car would be worn out in 10 years anyways. Stay with petrol diesel or hybrid..best hybrid system out there is the toyota 5th gen hybrid used in the new innova hycross. With the dynamic force engine that achives nearly 50% thermal efficiency. There is no need to buy an ev and deal with all the issues. And wait around for charging.
Hey Faisal please make review on xuv400. On of the most awaited video from you. I saw many videos on XUV400 by other reviewers but no one reviewes like you. Your power, your style of reviewing is just amazing. Thank you 😃
