Tata Motors were one of the early pioneers in building a strong base for electric vehicles in India. Back in July’ 19, they launched the electric version of their sedan – Tigor. The Tigor EV is Tata’s first electric car and in a way, will provide direction for all the upcoming Electric Vehicles of Tata. Re-launched at a starting price of 11.9 Lakhs (ex-showroom), Tata Motors has ensured that even the common mass will be able to afford it.
TATA Tigor EV Features & Specifications
The Tigor EV utilises a 72V 3 phase AC induction motor. The ARAI claimed the range of the Tigor EV is 306 kms. It’s battery supports fast-charging and is capable of charging from 0-80 percent in about 65 mins. However, it takes about 8 – 9 hours to fully charge the battery, if charged at 15A home charging.
The Tigor EV is not a feature-rich and it is quite understandable given the price it has been launched at. We need to understand that a significant amount is spent towards battery pack in Electric vehicles and Tata has done a brilliant job in squeezing the price to what it is.
Tigor’s range of 306 km/ full charge is good for day to day city use and for long range driving as well.
That said, some of the features of the sedan are listed below:
- 4 stars GNCAP rating
- Over the air software upgrades using telematics
- 8 years/ 1.6 Lakh kms warranty on battery & motor
- A high density of 21.5 kWh battery
- Multi-drive mode: Eco and Sport
- Vehicle health monitoring, driving and trip analytics
and other essential features that can make the Tigor EV a default choice for every household.
Variants
The Tata Tigor EV has been launched in four variants: XE, XM, XZ+ and XZ+ dual tone.
Color Options:
The Tata Tigor EV features come in two color options: Daytona Grey and Signature Teal Blue.
