Rumour: Tata Tiago-based sedan might be called Viago / Altigo

Tata Motors is reportedly finalising the production name of the Tiago-based compact sedan, which was showcased at the 2016 Auto Expo under the Kite 5 concept moniker. According to media reports, though the automaker hasn't officially mentioned anything about the probable names, it has narrowed down on two options - Viago and Altigo.

The Tiago-based sedan will be a sub-4 metre offering that will be placed below the Tata Zest. The Kite 5 concept showcased at this year's auto expo revealed that Tata designers have managed to keep the profile of the car fairly proportionate, despite it being under 4 metres in length. The sedan is expected to borrow interiors, features and engine options from the Tiago hatchback.

No official launch date for the Tiago-based sedan has been revealed yet. Tata already has the Hexa's launch lined up for early next year. Hence, the Kite 5 production model is likely to be introduced later in the first half of 2017.
