As Tata Motors continues testing the facelifted
Tigor on the public roads, yet another batch of spy shots has surfaced online.
IAB reader Yogesh Naik had spotted the upcoming sedan on the Mumbai-Pune
Expressway recently.
The Tata Tigor embodies the IMPACT design language
and was launched in March 2017. It was given a minor cosmetic update in October
last year. With the mid-cycle refresh, it may get slight design changes in the
form of a new upper front grille, revised bumpers, new alloy wheels and tweaked
headlamps and tail lamps. Interior updates may include fresh seat upholstery
and enhancements to the infotainment system and MID.
The Tata Tigor is available with the 1.2L Revotron
petrol engine (85 PS/114 Nm) and the 1.05L Revotorq diesel engine (70 PS/140
Nm). The petrol engine can be teamed up with either a 5-speed manual
transmission or a 5-speed automated manual transmission. The oil-burner comes
mated only to 5-speed manual transmission. Upgrading the diesel engine to BS-VI
standards is too expensive, and its demand isn't promising either. It is
planned to be discontinued by March 2020, and so, the facelifted model may not
come with this option.
The current top-of-the-line configuration of the
Tata Tigor features a diamond-look front grille, projector headlamps with
chrome finish, 15-inch dual-tone alloy wheels, LED tail lights, shark-fin
antenna, faux leather upholstery with contrast stitching and a 7-inch
touchscreen infotainment system. The sub-4 meter sedan is sold in five trims -
XE, XM, XZ, XZA and XZ+, with prices starting at INR 5,48,127 (ex-showroom
Delhi).
Tata Motors will likely launch 2020 Tigor (facelift)
by the end of 2019.
