The Tiago AMT available in Bangladesh is identical to the XTA variant of the car sold in India. The car comes with a gloss black honeycomb grille flanked by wraparound headlamps, roof spoiler with integrated high and mounted stop lamp. Inside, the car gets a three-spoke steering wheel, twin-pod instrument cluster with 2.5-inch MID and ConnectNext infotainment system by Harman with Juke-Car App and turn-by-turn navigation.

The Tiago AMT is powered by a 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine that produces 84 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 114 Nm of peak torque @ 3,500 rpm. It has two driving modes - Sports and City. The engine is paired with a 5-speed automated manual transmission which has a 'creep' function. There is no manual transmission or diesel variant available like the Indian Tiago.

I travel to Bangladesh frequently for work, and there is no place for Manual cars in that country. Its one of the biggest market for used/re-furbished Toyotas and Hondas from Japan and Korea, all automatic, with added CNG kit locally. Selling a manual geared car is useless in that market.

Also, import duties on cars are as high as 400%, so not many can afford a brand new car as duties on used cars is much less, and these cars are in great condition with superb fit and finish. I have seen a few tata showrooms and a few Nano and Indica in Dhaka. Mahindra also has a decent presence, have seen a few Xylos and KUVs.

Interestingly, they use all Mahindra tractors for Airport ground operations at Dhaka and Chittagong, the 2 airports that i have visited.
