I bought a Tata Tigor iCNG because I believed in supporting Indian manufacturing. However, the ownership experience has been frustrating. The touchscreen malfunctioned within three months, and the issue was only acknowledged after the warranty expired. The battery had a known issue that was not properly addressed during the warranty period. Additionally, the car came with steel wheels disguised as alloys. After a service, my car returned with scratches, and there was no accountability from the service center. Overall, the car feels more like a recurring expense than an asset.

I currently own a Wagon R VXi CNG and want to upgrade to a CNG automatic. Please suggest the best option with good mileage. I am 62 years old.
Given your age and your current ownership of a Wagon R VXI CNG, the priority should be ease of driving, reliability and low running costs. Since you specifically want a CNG automatic, the Tata Punch i-CNG AMT is the most sensible upgrade. It retains the same strengths you are used to: low running costs and a tall driving position, while adding the convenience of an automatic gearbox.The AMT is not the smoothest automatic on the market, but it is simple, reliable and well-suited to city driving. In fact, Tata Motors is currently the only brand offering AMTs with CNG models, with the Altroz, Tiago and Tigor also available with this combination. However, given its tall seating position and ease of ingress and egress, we recommend the Punch CNG. It's feature-loaded too, and thanks to its dual-cylinder CNG storage, you don't sacrifice on boot space either.
Looking at a Tigor EV as a second car and genuinely worried about battery degradation numbers after 5-6 years. Is this still a valid concern or outdated information at this point?
Took my Tigor in for its first service today, in and out in under 90 minutes with a clear breakdown of what was actually done.
What's the problem with Tigor petrol AMT, is it good for long run? Why it's not seen much on road? I haven't driven though Tata's AMTs, how laggy it's compared to Hyundai's AMTs or MS AMTs? Given that, I drive nios AMT and never feel any such lag and am looking for another AMT for my personal use. Kindly share if Magnite AMT can also be considered or not good. Tentative monthly running with this secondary vehicle is expected to be around 500km.
I am upgrading from a Tata Tigor and am confused between the Mahindra 3XO AX5L petrol and the Tata Nexon DCA. My usage is primarily city driving, averaging around 700 km per month. Could you please help me choose the better option for my needs?
Mostly city driving at about 700 km a month and moving up from a Tata Tigor - in that use, the Mahindra XUV 3XO AX5 L petrol automatic is the stronger fit. It's automatic is a torque-converter type, which means it changes gears smoothly and feels calm at very low speeds. The driving position is higher than your Tigor, visibility is good, and the AX5 L gives you easy-to-use screens and parking aids you will want every day.The Tata Nexon DCA is still a solid choice. It has a roomier back seat and a bigger boot. But its DCA gearbox, which is a dual-clutch that shifts very quickly when you speed up, can feel a bit hesitant when you inch forward in heavy traffic. It is not a deal-breaker, but for a primarily city user like you, the Mahindra’s calmer behaviour at low speed matters more.Two trade-offs with the 3XO to keep in mind: the back seat and boot are not as spacious as the Nexon’s. Overall, for mostly city use, the XUV 3XO AX5 L petrol lines up best with what you described.
