Tata Motors has finally launched its smallest electric car in the Indian market - the Tiago EV. The all-electric hatchback has been introduced at a base price of Rs 8.49 lakh, going all the way up to Rs 11.79 lakh (both prices, ex-showroom). This makes it the most affordable electric car in the Indian market.

Take a look at the variant-wise pricing of the Tiago EV -


Do note that these are introductory prices that are applicable for only the first 10,000 customers.

Tata is offering the Tiago EV with two different battery packs. The smaller 19.2 kWh battery pack variants are offered with a 3.3 kW AC charger, while the variants with the larger 24 kWh battery pack get a 7.2 kW AC charger. The 19.2 kWh battery will provide the car a range of 250 km on a single full charge, while the larger battery is claimed to offer a range of 315 km. Tata claims that the car can sprint from 0 to 60 kmph in just 5.7 seconds!

The 7.2 kW charger can fully charge the battery in 3 hours and 36 minutes, while a DC fast charger can charge the battery from 10 to 80% in 57 minutes. On the feature front, the Tiago EV gets a touchscreen infotainment system, electric ORVMs, cruise control, push button start/stop, leatherette seats, auto headlamps, and much more.

Speaking of design changes over the standard Tiago, the Tiago EV gets a blue trim on the front grille, around the fog lamp housing, EV badging on the front fenders, as well as new alloy wheels to help improve efficiency. The blue accents can be seen on the inside too around the AC vents.

As of now, the Tata Tiago EV has no direct rival in the Indian market. However, Citroen is all set to debut the fully-electric version of the C3 in the country tomorrow, which will serve as a competitor to the Tata EV.
