Tata Tiago

Car purchased in January 2017. On Road Cost Rs 565000/- (Ranchi, Jharkhand) Driven 88000 km till 30th January, 2021. Driven by me about 86000 km. Drove on top class expressways to National Highways to state highways to city roads to village roads to under construction roads to no roads at all to high hills of Darjeeling and Gangtok to scorching heat in Madhya Pradesh to border town of Longewalla in Rajasthan and Kutchh in Gujarat, to Hills of Mahabaleshwar in Maharashtra to naxalite hit regions in Chhattisgarh and Jharkhand to plains of Lucknow, Bihar and West Bengal. VERDICT : Superb Car. Easy to drive. Offers immense and unexpected high confidence to driver in controlling the car. AVERAGE Mileage in cities between 15 to 18 kmpl of petrol. On highways between 18 to 28 KMPL. 18 kmpl was when I was driving on plateaus of Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh with three people along with me in the car. 28 kmpl was when I was driving on plains of Uttar Pradesh with RPM at 1100-1300 while maintaining a speed of 50-60 kmph on 5th gear. In all conditions, AC is on on Ride quality is best in class. Great suspension. Always used Nitrogen in tyres with the stipulated pressure. Changed the company fitted Goodyear tyres after 42250 km. Replaced them with Yokohama tyres which are doing fine so far. May run for another 15000 km. Engine goes a bit vocal when more power is required at low gears and high RPM. I generally avoid putting any sort of undue pressure on the engine unless it is unavoidable. Even pick up from standing position very slowly and very gradually increase speed. I prefer to get the car in momentum and then use its speed to roll it further. I largely avoid using clutch and brakes too often. Gears are sometimes a bit notchy, not irritating. Two times the car's engine stopped abruptly. Once it was in June 2019 in Madhya Pradesh on way to Bhopal from Gwalior in scorching heat with temperatures soaring 48-50 degrees. Local mechanics said it happens during summers, so avoid driving at day time. We took a long pause of 5 hours from mid noon to 5 pm while bonnet was opened as engine was becoming too heated up. Second it was in early July the same year when the car was driven 1100 kms almost continously from Lucknow to Darjeeling. As we were about to climb up the hills, car stopped taking pace and abruptly stopped with engine light on. Again the same issue of heating up. After giving it a rest of two hours, all was fine. Sound system is top grade. Enjoyed it. Precautions : Despite being four years and running so much all say the car is quite good in shape and performance. Why? a) Never put too much pressure on the engine. b) Maintain RPM of 1800-2500 on highways. c) On city roads, no point taking RPM above 1500. d) Timely service is a must. I personally do every 8000-10000 km. Engine oil change is a must along with Oil Filter and Fuel Filter. e) I keep cleaning the air filter and ac filter every 1500 km personally at home. f) Always maintain optimum air pressure, avoid taking air at road side mechanic shops. They unknowingly put too much air which damages ride quality. Note : Be smooth on the car and it will serve you longer. Tiago is not a very powerful car, so don't try or expect performance like Creta, Jeep Compass, Fortune or Scorpio kind of vehicles. It is a naturally spirited engine and works quite well when handled well. Replacements so far : Engine Mount, Front Wipers, Rear left drum, All brake pads, All four tyres, Balancing Rods in the front suspension at around 65000 km. So far in services and parts replacement expenditure has been to the tune of Rs 75000 in past four years. Do comment on my experience with Tiago.

Well I believe only Tata Tiago owners should be given the right to review the car and not just tom dick and harry's who have made bogus opinions about Tata cars through previous experience of other models or by word of mouth from Jealous owners of other brands. I stay in Delhi and I have purchased Tiago in August 2016 after a waiting period of over a month. Frankly this is a total overhaul of Tata as a brand and ownership experience as a person in a very positive way. This car is a shot in the behind of people exchanging pleasantries about their brands and downing Tata. Honestly I own other brand of cars too and have been loyal about them, however owning my first Tata totally changed my perception. There is a constant feeling of being pampered when you are in this special car from Tata, the astounding Harman music system combined and embedded with the features of the car give a total luxury feel. You can control the exterior light functions like "Approach lights: (nowhere to be seen on any other brand). Change the rear parking sensitivity at the touch of a button, Bluetooth features (very fast connectivity) unlike my new Baleno which takes at least a minutes or two to connect. Small functions like hooks and bottle holders placed so perfectly that you cant help and admire the interior set up. Given its a hatchback, the car is super comfortable however do not expect it to gobble up potholes like some SUV. The engine is peppy and rev friendly and sounds very sporty. A little vibration while the car is on idle run is expected from 3 cylinder engine however again its negligible. The boot is large enough to hold 1 large and 2 small suitcases. Mine is a petrol XT and is giving me a super average of 18kmpl in city and believe me its 23kmpl when i hit the highway on NH8. and yes i dont drive above 80-90 kmh so that helps me attains the numbers. So anyone having second thoughts I would say "lets just go for it" and fall in love. My only complain, a little rattle from the passenger and driver window glass when it is half down, I dint complain about it thou but yes it can be taken care of easily, so no issue. Hope everyone who purchases the car has similar experiences and wish only the owners write a review and not other brand owners.

Just bought Tata tiago petrol xz+ model in september 2020. Driven @ 1000 kms. First of all engine is very peppy didnt expected from tata this type of class engine. Very responsive engine. Suspension of my tiago is excellent. I live in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra. Driven the car from Ahmednagar to Akole and back. Just now. Road conditions are worst now a days. Rainy season had ruined roads totally. Not 500 meter road is without pot holes. In these roads while other cars like swift, I 20, toyota liva were trying to move from pot holes with very low speed, while I was moving easyly without much efforts. Considerabally notcing other drivers were in much stress. While I was moving much more easyly. Suspension quality of my tiago is excellent. Brakes applied were very effective. Was feeling that car is in my total control. pickup is excellent. And there is strong confidance feeling while overtaking other vehicles. Pickup while overtaking is excellent. About looks. Looks are awsome . No doubts. in short words awsome product from Tata cars. Harman music system with 7" touch screen is awsome. Sound quality of harman music system is so excellent. 4 speakers and 4 tweeters sounds nice. Android and apple car play support is given in that also. screen functions are also easy to use. back glass wiper with defogger works nicely. Automatic Climate controll is very good. Height adjustable driver seats are provided. Abs with ebd is provided works very nicely. Steering Height adjustment also provided. Totally newly designed digital speedometer with all informations is provided. Looks and feels awsome. Above all price is much competative than its rivals with 4 star safety features by global ncap rating. City milage I got is @ 17 kmpl and highway milage I got is @ 25 kmpl.

Should start with its built quality, What a car it is. Will know the quality as soon you open the door. Purchased Tata Tiago xe bs6 entry-level car in march 2020. Purchased XE doing a Math for aftermarket Accessories cost and installed power windows, central locking, 10-inch android music system ( That screen size is not available in any variant) installed JBL components which sounds 90% of Harman Music at a very good budget. I loved the car so much for its looks, comfort, and drivability. The steering is butter smooth. Seating comfort is good for both driver and rear passengers. I recently done a trip from Hyderabad to Kanyakumari covering all the pilgrim places in south. It returned me very good mileage of 23+ in ghat roads of Srisailam and Tirupati and i am shocked to get the mileage of 25.6 as i drive with very lightfoot, No hard exceleration (Tested tank to tank Method) when returned back to hyderabad from kanyakumari all done in a single day with minimum brakes maintained speed of 80-90 with 3 occupants with a boot full of luggage. Should Thank Tata for building such a nice looking, safety and fuel efficient car. Pros. Good Looks Safety Good Highway mileage. Cons. Little cabin noise. After-sales service should improve. most times tata service centers will try to loot you without doing proper servicing. My friend reported that the service center guy didnt replace the oil filter but still charged for it. Need to be very careful. Not all service centers does it but the impression of service centers are not good.

Actually everything is gud in this car with this price when compared to its rival.It has well built body the steel is heavy than any other car even swift or grand i10 or even baleno.The suspension of this car is very gud u almost can manage any pot holes.The ride quality and control is very good even in corners the car is not wobboling and brake is perfect.speaking about power of car its less powered to get good power u need to rev the car like cbr150 or cbr250r its a high rev engine so need rev high to get power or else u will feel less powered my father doent have the habit of high rev car as he has xuv,re350, fz150, ktm 390 for all these vehicle u have rev low.Unlike me i have high rev type vehicles so i dont feel less powered hope u understand wat i said... try this in test drive.I have to speak about ac almost everytime i have to switchoff ac while driving in highway as its so cool i always wished they should have provided ac off in vent individually.I was driving 900kms in single day and donr feel any tiredness as the seat,clutch, steering,gearbox is soft, light and responsive.Music system is something way better than any 20lakhs car with harman system seriously download songs in 320 kbps and play the song in car u know how gud is music system. If ur planing to buy car for 4.5lakhs then invest some extra money u wont regret it.Till 7 lakhs u have no car as better option this car.If u ready to invest 7.5 lakhs or above then go for amaze 2018 or baleno
