The Tata Tiago remains one of the few hatchbacks in its segment to offer both petrol and factory-fitted CNG options with consistent safety and feature updates. What’s new is the wider variant spread and dual-fuel flexibility which directly impacts running costs for Indian buyers. With prices starting from Rs 4.60 lakh (ex-showroom), it continues to target first-time car buyers and urban users looking for a balance of affordability, efficiency as well as basic safety. Here’s a clear breakdown of its price, mileage, specifications and features.
Price, Variants And Powertrain Options
The Tata Tiago range starts at Rs 4.60 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up depending on variant and fuel type. It is offered in multiple trims, including petrol, CNG and the Tiago NRG variant with a more rugged
design.
Under the hood, it uses a 1.2-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine producing around 84-85 bhp and 113 Nm of torque. The same engine is adapted for CNG, where output drops to about 74 bhp and 96.5 Nm. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual and AMT automatic.
For buyers, the key decision comes down to usage. Petrol suits mixed driving, while CNG lowers running costs for daily commutes.
Mileage, Specs And Real-World Usability
Mileage is a strong factor here. Petrol variants deliver around 19-19.01 kmpl, while CNG versions offer up to 28.06 km/kg, depending on transmission.
The Tiago uses a 1,199 cc engine and remains a compact 5-seater hatchback with a practical footprint for city driving. It also offers around 242 litres of boot space and a ground clearance close to 168 mm, which suits typical Indian road conditions.
What this really means is predictable running costs and easy drivability especially in urban traffic, where smaller dimensions and light controls matter more than outright power.

Features, Safety And Buyer Relevance
The Tiago includes essential features such as a touchscreen infotainment system, steering-mounted controls, and connectivity options in higher variants. The focus stays on usable features rather than premium add-ons. On safety, it carries a 4-star Global NCAP rating along with dual airbags and ABS with EBD as standard.
For Indian buyers, especially in the entry hatchback space, this combination of safety rating, fuel options and pricing keeps the Tiago relevant. It addresses two key concerns directly: cost of ownership and basic safety, which continue to drive purchase decisions in this segment.
