</p><p>Latest hatchback by Tata Motors, the Tiago, has started with dream run. The car made a lot of loud noise just before its launch in April’16 with new impact design language by Tata Motors and its earlier name of Zica. It has now got super impressive number of sales in its first two months since launch. Tata Motors have sold 3,022 units of the Tiago in April, rising it to the badge of the best-selling car of the company in that month. In May also, it sold 3,287 units, registering growth in sales.</p><p>The new hatchback currently has got over 22,000 bookings, most of which are for petrol models. Due to the high bookings the dealers of Tata are not able to deliver Tiago as committed and the longer waiting period of the hatchback has started to create anxiety amongst the buyers. To match the response of registered numbers, Tata Motors is planning to increase its production at its Sanand plant in Gujarat. The company also recently rolled out the 10,000th Tiago from the plant.</p><p>Tiago being priced at just Rs 3.2 lakh for its base petrol variant and Rs 3.94 lakh for the base diesel variant (prices ex-showroom Delhi). It comes with either 1.2 liter three-cylinder Revotron petrol or 1.05 liter three-cylinder Revotorq diesel engine. The petrol motor produces 83BHP of power at 6,000 RPM and 114Nm of torque at 3,500 RPM, while the diesel engine produces 69BHP of power 4,000 RPM and 140Nm of torque at 1,800-3,000 RPM. Both the engines are mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. The Tiago has been certified with fuel efficiency of 23.8 KMPL for petrol and 27.28 KMPL for diesel.</p><p>The car is based on the XO platform, similar to the successful older Indica series. Tata have done an extensive work to have Tiago have its own individual character and thus the car was built with design inputs from the Tata's all three design centres in Coventry, Turin, and Pune. The hatchback showcases a new signature honeycomb-grille with chrome, smoked head-lamps, a new designed alloy wheels, and a well-crafted rear profile.</p><p></p>
