Trending Questions on Tata Cars - Answered by Autocar Experts
I am looking for an automatic petrol car with factory-fitted CNG within a budget of ₹8 lakh. Please suggest suitable options.
The Tata Tiago iCNG AMT in XTA trim is the best CNG car in your budget. There is not much of a performance drop when switching from petrol to CNG mode, and Tata's clever use of two CNG cylinders also means you get some usable boot space too. You can read our full review of the Tata Tiago iCNG.
I want to purchase a new car, and my budget is up to Rs 8 lakh. I am 70 years old. Please advise.
The Tata Punch, due to its high seats and wide-opening doors, will make getting in and out very easy. Also, being an SUV, visibility is also better from the Punch's driving seat. So if you'd like to opt for an SUV body style, the Punch is a good option.
I’m looking for a car for a daily commute of about 60 km and prefer CNG. I have shortlisted the Wagon R and Tiago. The Wagon R seems to offer much more value. What do you suggest?
If you are finding more value in the Maruti Wagon R, you should go ahead with this, as in the end, that is what matters to you. However, do bear in mind that the boot of the Wagon R is completely filled with the large single CNG tank and the spare tyre, thus leaving practically no space for even small bags.
The Tata Tiago CNG, on the other hand, has the spare tyre underneath the car and comes with a dual CNG cylinder setup which sits below the boot floor, thus leaving you with a decent amount of luggage space.
Hi Autocar. I am looking for a comfortable car with good driving dynamics. I am deciding between the Toyota Innova Hycross VX (Optional) and the Tata Harrier EV. I like the Harrier’s driving feel, whereas the Hycross excels in rear-seat comfort. What’s your take on this? My budget is under ₹35 lakh.
As you rightly said, the Toyota Innova HyCross is better from the rear seat, while the Tata Harrier EV is more enjoyable from the front. It's up to you to decide where your priority lies.
When it comes to performance and dynamics, the Harrier EV ticks more boxes, as it has a much stronger and more responsive powertrain, sharper steering, tighter dynamics and a pretty comfortable ride in isolation too.
However, its shortcoming is that of all EVs - the limitation of range and dependency on charging. Plus, the Harrier EV has shown signs of electronic glitches, at least on early cars.
If these are things you can work with, the Harrier EV seems like the better choice for you. The Innova, meanwhile, is the better all-rounder. It's more spacious and comfortable, with rock-solid reliability and a seamless service experience.
I currently drive a Hyundai Grand i10 (manual, petrol) and want to buy a new automatic petrol SUV within a ₹15 lakh budget. My priorities are safety, rear-seat space and boot capacity. I prefer models such as the Tata Sierra, Curv, Nexon, Venue N Line and Kia cars. My usage is mostly city driving, with highway trips once every three months. Please suggest the right car.
Since you already drive a Hyundai car, it's best to stick with the brand, and in your budget, the new Hyundai Venue makes sense. It's the latest car in its segment, and as such, offers the newest tech and features.
While it hasn't been crash tested yet, it uses a new-gen platform and features plenty of safety kit, so we expect it to perform. Its rear seat and boot are both pretty spacious for the class, and if you choose the N Line variant, as you prefer, you'll get some sporty design elements as well.
The Tata Sierra and new Kia Seltos would have been better options for your requirements, but sadly, automatic versions of those cars will be outside of your budget.
I have been using automatic cars, a Celerio and a Grand i10, for the past 8 years. Both are good, and the i10 is smoother. I now want to replace the Celerio and buy a new automatic petrol car or an EV within a 20 lakh budget. My monthly usage is around 1,000 km, mostly in the city with rare highway trips. Which is better: an automatic SUV priced around 16 to 20 lakh, or an EV like the Windsor or Nexon within an 18 lakh budget? I also have a home charging facility. My wife will use the car sometimes. Are there any other EV or automatic options available in this range?
I am a first-time driver planning to buy an MG Comet for city use. Are there any other small automatic/electric vehicles that would be better than the Comet?
The MG Comet is a good option for a first-time driver. It is easy to drive, has a spacious cabin, despite being a two-door, and the electric powertrain is smooth and silent enough.
However, the 2-doors mean the Comet is not the most practical option in its segment, the boot is small, and the small tyres mean the ride can get choppy. If this is important to you, you could consider the Tata Tiago EV. Otherwise the Comet will do just fine.
I am looking for a car primarily for city driving, with a budget of Rs 10 to 12 lakh. Comfort and safety are my top priorities. I do not want an AMT gearbox, and I would prefer a model that offers a 360-degree camera for easier parking.
Which is the best car under 7.5 lakh? Nissan Magnite, Tata Altroz, or Maruti Baleno? Is the Nissan Magnite a good option to buy?
Hello team. I’m selling my old i20 and planning to buy a new car. I’ve shortlisted the Tata Altroz, Maruti Baleno, Toyota Glanza and Maruti Dzire. My priorities are an automatic transmission, good mileage, 4/5-star safety, an armrest and a rear wiper. I’m attracted to the Glanza for its styling and the UV-cut glass on the top variant. My maximum budget is ₹10.5-11 lakh on-road in Telangana. Please suggest which is best.
The Toyota Glanza is a rebadged Maruti Suzuki Baleno, and the only difference between the two is the badge, some interior trim colours and the warranty. The Glanza is sold with a 3-year/1,00,000km warranty, while the Baleno gets a 2-year/40,000km warranty.
The Glanza is a good option if you like the way it looks, and the UV cut glass is a must-have feature for you. However, if you are looking for a car that will hold its value better, then the Maruti Suzuki Baleno is the better option, and also features UV cut class.
The Tata Altroz does get you the option of a diesel engine, and a DCT automatic, which is the more sophisticated auto gearbox here. However, you could also consider the new Hyundai i20, which comes with a CVT auto or a DCT with its powerful turbo engine.
