Tata Motors has unveiled the new Tata Tigor EV - its second electric car for the personal segment. The new electric sedan is also the second Tata car (after Tata Nexon EV) to feature the high voltage electric architecture – Ziptron.The new EV is based on the internal combustion engine (ICE) Tigor facelift. While it looks very similar to the ICE version, there are a few key differences. The most notable difference is a new glossy black panel in place of the traditional grille, with an electric blue accent underlining the entire setup. The Tigor EV also gets blue highlights inside the headlamps and on the 15-inch alloy wheels, which also feature a new design. It additionally gets projector headlamps along with revised fog lamp housing with LED DRLs integrated on the front bumper.The interior design looks very similar to the standard Tigor. However, to differentiate the Tigor EV from its ICE-based sibling, it carries over the blue accents on the inside as well. In terms of features, the Tigor EV gets a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, 4 speakers and 4 tweeters, iRA connected car tech, multi-function steering wheel, automatic climate control, digital instrument cluster, and much more. In terms of safety features, the Tigor EV gets dual airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, rear parking camera, seat belt reminder, and more.The new Tata Tigor EV delivers a peak power output of 73 bhp and a peak torque of 170 Nm. It is capable of doing the 0 to 60 kmph sprint in 5.7 seconds. It comes with a 26 kWh lithium-ion battery pack which is efficiently packaged. The Tigor EV has got an IP67-rated battery pack and motor and comes with an 8-year and 1,60,000 km battery and motor warranty. The Tata Tigor EV is likely to undercut the Nexon EV’s INR 13.99-16.85 lakh price range and could cost about INR 1.5-2 lakh more than the ICE-powered Tigor, which currently tops out at INR 7.81 lakh in India. At this price, the Tigor EV does not have any direct rivals in the Indian market.
