The Tiago was previously announced as the Tata Zica, with "Zica" short for "zippy car", but it was changed because the launch of the car coincide with the outbreak of Zika virus.[3] Tiago, a common Portuguese masculine name, was picked from suggestions solicited online.[4]
Tata Tiago was born as the successor of the previous Tata Bolt, which was nothing but a heavy restyling of Tata Indica Vista. Like the Indica Vista, even the Bolt did not get the desired success and Tata began designing a completely new vehicle (Kite project) of a city car with 5-door body that could boost the sales of the brand in the Indian territory.
The base platform was always the Tata X0 chassis that also adopted the previous Indica and Bolt but was heavily modified and shortened because with the new car Tata Motors wanted to lower the list price as well as the production costs. Also, the engines were all new and the old Fiat 1.2 FIRE and 1.3 Multijet unit adopted by the previous models were abandoned. With the Tiago, Tata brings to its debut the Revotron and Revotorq three-cylinders designed together with Austria's AVL, a family of modular propellers designed to equip the entire range of the Indian manufacturer.[5][6][7]
The Tiago was 3.75 metres long, shorter than the old Tata Bolt, the body has 5 doors. From the Tiago has also been developed a sedan variant called Tata Tigor.[8]
The engines are the 1.2-litre Revotron three-cylinder 12V petrol that delivers 85 horsepower (63 kW; 86 PS) and 114 N⋅m (84 lb⋅ft; 12 kg⋅m) of maximum torque combined with a 5-speed manual transmission or 6-speed automatic, the diesel is a 1.1-litre Revotorq three-cylinder common rail 12V producing 70 horsepower (52 kW; 71 PS) delivering 140 N⋅m (103 lb⋅ft; 14 kg⋅m) of maximum torque, combined with a 5-speed manual transmission. The Tiago is produced only with right hand drive in Tata Motors Sanand plant and is not expected to be imported in Europe.
In September 2018, Tata Motors launched the Tiago NRG in the Indian market, a crossover like trim with a 10 mm (0.4 in) raised, raw plastic guards for the bumpers and sills, two-tone alloy wheels and a rear bumper shield. The Tiago NRG is sold with both 1.2 petrol and 1.05 diesel engines.[9] in 2021 tata Also Launched facelift version of Tiago NRG.
In October 2018 Tata launched the Tiago JTP, a sporty version Tiago with 1.2 litre Revotron Turbo engine with max output of 114 PS (84 kW; 112 hp) of power which is 29 PS (21 kW; 29 hp) more than all the other versions.[10][11] It was tuned by JT Special Vehicles or JTSV, a joint venture between Tata Motors and Coimbatore-based Jayem Automotives.[10] According to Tata, the car can accelerate from 0–100 kilometres per hour (0–62 mph) under 10 seconds.[11] There are also design changes which includes revised front grille, new bumper at front and dual exhaust pipe at the rear.[12]
The facelifted Tata Tiago was unveiled alongside the Tigor in 2020. It included cosmetic changes along with the BS6-complaint engine update.[13] Also Tata has added some new more colours including Victory yellow which later on Tata has discontinued.
