Will be offered as a separate variant produced in small batches.
At a briefing in their design studio, Tata showcased the Tiago Aktiv in Pearlescent White and Expresso Brown in a presentation of the Tiago's personalization capabilities. So far, it has been showcased in Striker Blue at the Geneva Motor Show.
A recent report stated that Tata will start producing the Tiago Aktiv as a separate variant on a made-to-order basis or in small batches. Until now, the crossover bits such as roof rails, black plastic cladding, body graphics and gloss black roof were offered as accessories for the regular Tiago, which cost INR 30,000 extra.
No changes will be made to the engine lineup. The Tiago Aktiv is to be offered with a 1.2-litre three-cylinder Revotron engine that produces 85 PS & 114 Nm, and a 1.05-litre three-cylinder Revotorq engine with 70 PS & 140 Nm. Both engines are fitted with a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard.
Since it was launched in the market in April, Tata has received 20,000 bookings for the Tata Tiago. Prices start from an highly competitive INR 3.2-4.75 lakhs for the petrol and INR 3.94-5.54 lakhs for the diesel (both ex-Showroom, New Delhi).
