Tata has been proudly selling India's most affordable "proper" electric car, the Tata Nexon EV for a while. Now they've introduced the even more affordable Tigor EV.
Tata Tigor EV Pros
A competent EV package at an affordable starting price
Zero tailpipe emissions & green image will appeal to the environmentally-conscious
Real-world range of ~200 km is adequate for city commutes & urban dwellers
Stupendously cheap fuel cost of 1 rupee / km (if you charge at home)
Peppy behaviour in "S" mode! "D" mode is rather tame though
Sorted road manners due to the lower center-of-gravity & firmer suspension
Smooth drive, no gears, light controls & compact size make it an ideal city car
Well-designed interiors are likeable & user-friendly
Features like the 8-speaker Harman audio system, projector headlamps, connected car tech & more
Solid build & construction. 4-star GNCAP safety rating is commendable
Tata Tigor EV Cons
A stiff 5-lakh rupees more expensive than the Tigor Petrol AMT
Nexon EV is superior & not that far away in terms of pricing (or EMIs)
~200 km range means this is strictly a city car. No long highway runs
Stiffer suspension than the regular Tigor means you feel more of the road. Bad roads are felt
Power tapers off after 100 km/h; top speed of just 120 km/h
Smaller 316L boot (regular Tigor = 419L) due to the intrusive spare tyre
Some misses such as "P" mode on the shifter, adjustable regen braking & alloy wheels
A rare Tata car that cannot seat 5 (best for 4 adults)
Tata's after-sales service quality is a hit or miss. Remains a gamble
It's a brand-new technology, so there will be issues & niggles
