|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cons | Engine feels underpowered with full load | The AMT gearbox feels jerky at low-speedsv | Interior materials feel basic | The rear cabin is not wide enough to accommodate 3 adults comfortably | The mid-range pull required for quick overtakes on the highways is not up-to-the-mark |
"The engine refinement of the Tata Tiago is below par from that of the combination and even the gearbox feels a bit clunky at times. What makes up for these flaws are the great sound quality, and feeling of solid safety."
"I love the fact that my small hatchback has such a stellar safety rating from Global NCAP. The CNG option of the Tiago has also made my daily running quite manageable with fuel prices touching the sky. TATA for the win! "
"I got the AMT version of the Tiago and itโs ultimately a little hesitant in shifting gears. Apart from that, no major complaints about the Tiago and I even have to give it credit for the way it rides. My whole family finds this to be a comfortable car."
"I was a little hesitant in buying the Tiago first but once I brought it home, my feelings about this hatchback changed quite a bit. Itโs fun in the corners, has plenty of features, looks fantastic and the CNG version, which I got, costs mere peanuts to run compared to petrol!"
"My family loves the fact that they travel in the Tiago, which has a four star rating from Global NCAP. Thatโs why, small bits like engine refinement and the slow AMT donโt really matter that much to us. Ultimately, we have our peace of mind when travelling in the Tiago."
"Bought it mainly for safety and space. Rear seat is good for kids, boot handles weekend luggage. Engine could be more powerful, but overall happy."
"I drive the Tiago to work every day. It's easy to operate, small in size, and has a good quality of protection. The mileage is average, and I haven't spent much on maintenance."
"Compared to other vehicles in the same class, this car feels like a very solid build. It handles fine in the city; however, on the highway, you may have to wait for a long time before being able to pass someone."
