Taigo nailed it with its pricing, but remember its only for first 10k customers, but still a great pricing, we need a micro city commute car, waiting for nano pixel concept below 8lkh pricing on road

[@gowthamv7856]

The regular price will be like 10k to 50k higher not much different.

[@rediscoveringhinduism]

What would be the on road price?

[@deepaktomar2405]

I bought my E2O+ in April'2018 (11KW Battery). That cost me 8.3 lacs onroad in Delhi. This seems like a serious bargain in comparison.

[@AnubhabKundu]

Definitely

[@vineeshkumar8191]

How much range are you getting in the E2O+?

[@nikenike7859]

Same here from an E2OPLUS owner.. spares that cost a bomb, body fully of plastic

[@rediscoveringhinduism]

How much range you are getting now as compared to original new range

[@malikveeresh6751]

I would be able to buy a spare tyre and rim and just place it vertically in the hatch. But my biggest reason to buy a Tiago EV in addition to a Nexon EV along with many other people would be its width. Let me explain - most garages and drives in older houses and parking lots were designed around the width of an Ambassador car (1662mm), while our Nexon (at 1811mm) squeezes in but the difference can be felt and seen. The Tiago at 1677mm is a brilliant fit. Likewise on the narrower roads of our village in the Konkan (where the nearest decent petrol pump is about 12 kms away). My preferred variant? XT(LR).

[@premprabhakar805]

kudos to tata for making this car so value for money and appealing to the middle class people of india... hope other car manufacturers will follow suit..

[@sameeravhad]

I think spare tyre is over rated , if you keep right tyre pressure, it is used very very rarely, I used spare tyre only one time in last ten years 😊

[@dilip12100]

We want Tata nano ev in the price range between 4 to 6 L

[@saiprayastha7141]

I'm also waiting for nano ev....

[@26herbs47]

This is a better choice at 8.5 lacs that a Nano at 4 lacs. Trust me, everyone was waiting for Nano before its launch but nobody bought it after that.

[@nabarunbasak3110]

@26 herbs you are right

[@souravdutta7844]

If it is 8-10% less weight then that means we get 8-10% more range. Now as battery is 8% less than tigor so it is cut out the range increase. So we can say we get Tigor range of 220-250 km. Now Tiago high torque is 114 kn and not Tigor 170 kn so I belive power consumption is less, and Tata doing right thing to limit the power for small car. Also cruise control and regen improve efficiency. So hope range will increase and we basically can get 240-270 km easily. #TataDeshKiShaan

[@syedsyed-qz5ne]

Thanks Atul for your way of presentation and cover all the insights.

[@holypunk12]

This is a game changer ! Ofcourse another one with 450 km range within 12 lakhs will change whole ev scene !

[@26herbs47]

People doing suvh a long range driving will definitely be buyers ofNexon. How many people do you know that drive such long range on regular bassthat have small cars or petrol cars. these are diesel users and Nexon will be their choice or MG ZS EV

[@dgupta42]

Maybe Tata Motors should allow a mobile phone + app be used as a method to update software, instead of going to the dealer. Car update should begin only after the software is fully downloaded to the car and verified, so it does not brick cars.

[@malikveeresh6751]

The other option I would like to try out when I get my Tiago EV is the wheel/rim/tyre size from the Tiago NRG. 175 / 60 / R15" in the front wheels and retain the existing 175 / 65 / R14" in the rear. Hopefully that will not impact the warranty. And steel wheels are brilliant!

[@GuyBehindAComputer]

Would you explain the reason for doing it?

[@malikveeresh6751]

@@GuyBehindAComputer I prefer tyres with a minimum of 2 Ply Rating on sidewalls for high torque EVs.

[@GuyBehindAComputer]

@@malikveeresh6751 i see, Thanks!

[@adityaparakh]

Please provide more information on the regen feature. How much does it add to the range? How inconvenient is it while driving / Why not keep highest regen on at all times ? Considering mixed : city/ Highway usage.

[@26herbs47]

Please provide 19 KW option Fully Loaded with Tech + Lux Option. I have to buy the 24 KW Tech+ Lux only because of additional comfort and features. This is the debate in my head.

[@SACHINACHARYA]

They didn't provide spare wheel bcoz it is touted as City EV car. And in City limits you will almost easily find a puncture repair shop. So why compromise on boot space bcoz of sparewheel?

[@saiprayastha7141]

The new way of fixing tyre puncture kit video uploaded by tata themselves go and watch it.. we don't need a spare wheel from now

[@SACHINACHARYA]

@@saiprayastha7141 Lol... that's what I also said... Can't you read it properly!? I regularly watch longer videos published by Tata Motors. No need to learn from you.

[@Missingtailpipesby]

Excellent great job folks.

[@pankajseervi779]

Is we have cruise control in Tiago I can't believe it because in tata officially they said they don't have cruise control

[@KRaowheels]

Does the 19.2Kwh support 7.2kw charging? Because Tata mentions 2.6hours time for 7.2 kw charger!

[@atulgopal3449]

Nope

[@AnubhabKundu]

No, actually not needed for 7.2 kW AC fast charging. AC fast charger needs 3 phase connection

[@evthink]

Even 100kg less than a tigor should ideally save 8-10% enery usage per KM.

They have reduced the battery pack size as well. Range should be same as Tigor

Iam a Nexon EV max customer a have completely disappointed by the service they provide for EV's. My take here is no matter how much you sell your product, if you dont provide robust service then this hype is not useful to customers like us.

[@700nura]

Hi Sir, Next time when you meet any officials or some one from Tata, Could you please ask them if they have tried using smaller motors + gears just like Northway Motors? I know it adds complexity with respect to regen and more losses but still I feel that there would be increase in range or we would get consistent range irrespective of Highway or City speeds. 5 Gears are definitely an overkill, but 3 gears + reverse or even 2 gears + reverse might go a long way in helping the range. And otherwise brilliant videos as always. Pranam 🙏

The Tata RnD team did Mumbai-Pune ghat climb trip. City flyovers won’t be an issue.

[@sony5244]

@@pluginIndia thank u. If Tata could just announce the gradeability of this car then the matter would have been settled. If you could just somehow highlight this issue thro social media or directly to TATA, it will be great.I have never been to the Ghats, that you mentioned. I live in Meghalaya [ 4500 - 6100 feet above sea level] which has a similar terrain like Himachal and Uttarkhand and almost all the 7 states of North east India are very hilly in nature , if a vehicle has a gradeability of about 18% and above, then it will do the job here. If also ,one goes by the calculation that the tiago petrol version also produces about 114 nm of torque, then still it will be enough for us because there are a good number of tiago plying here. But it is right or is it the correct way to extrapolate or compare the pulling power of an ice engine to an EV taking torque alone. We need to ask the experts
