    The launch of Tata’s all-new hatchback, the Tiago will take place on April 6, 2016.  Tata dealers across the country have started accepting bookings from the customers, at a booking amount of Rs 10,000 which is refundable. The Tiago continues Tata’s brand reinvention in the passenger car segment, following heavily re-engineered models such as the Bolt and Zest.
     
    The new hatchback will slot in between the Bolt and Nano, effectively replacing the Indica eV2, in a segment dominated by the Maruti Celerio and the Hyundai i10. Highlights of the Tiago include a pair of all-new three-cylinder petrol and diesel engines, a bold new design and a strong suit of features.
     
    The petrol motor on the Tiago is an all-new 1.2-litre three-cylinder DOHC aluminium unit which is a part of Tata Motor’s Revotron family of engines. This engine develops 83.8bhp of power and 11.6kgm of torque. The diesel engine is also an all-new 1.05-litre three-cylinder DOHC unit made of aluminium with a cast iron block. It generates 69bhp of power and 14.2kgm of torque.
     
    Tata showcased the Tiago alongside its upcoming compact sedan sibling, codenamed Kite 5, at the 2016 Auto Expo. Both these models were recently shown at the Geneva motor show 2016 as well. The Kite 5 will slot in below the Zest as a smaller model and will feature a segment-defining feature – its 420-litre boot. The sedan will share its mechanicals and feature list with the Tiago.
