Tata Motors has been on a roll for the last couple of years with sales increasing constantly. It has also introduced and updated almost all its products to establish itself as one of the major carmakers in the country. Safety, as usual, remains at the centre of Tata’s priority list for all its products. Apart from that, Tata is also realizing the importance of convenience features which a lot of buyers look for in a car these days. As a result of this, it has launched the AMT version of its popular hatchback, Tiago. This variant will be called the Tiago XTA and is the 4th AMT option to the family of Tiago. This helps in diversifying the Tiago portfolio for the brand and offers its customers the flexibility to choose between various variants according to their needs.

Tata Tiago XTA
This new variant starts at Rs 5.99 lakh, ex-showroom and will be based on the XT trim of the Tiago range. The Tiago boasts of a segment-best 4-star Global NCAP safety rating and that is part of the reason why it has been so successful in our market. The feature list of the Tiago is quite extensive, which includes features like a 7-inch Infotainment Touchscreen by Harman, Electrically adjustable Wings Mirrors with Powered Folding, On-board 3D Navigation through Navimaps, Steering Mounted Audio Controls, Voice Command Recognition, bold 15-inch alloy wheels, Automatic Climate Control and a Digital Instrument Custer, along with a ton more.

Whereas Tata sold a mere 782 units of the Tigor in February 2020, it sold over 1,900 units in February 2021. Apart from Tiago, all the other products of Tata Motors have seen over 100% growth in sales on a YoY basis, which is a huge motivation for the brand going forward.
