About the Tata Tiago

The Tata Tiago is a compact hatchback available in South Africa making it one of the most affordable new cars on the market and a direct competitor to the Suzuki S-Presso and Renault Kwid at the entry level of the passenger car segment. It is powered by a 1.2-litre petrol engine offered in three trim levels with a choice of manual or automatic transmission, covering a price range that is difficult to match from any other new hatchback currently on sale in South Africa. The Tiago suits buyers for whom purchase price and running costs are the primary decision criteria, and who are willing to accept Indian build quality and a limited local service footprint in exchange for the lowest possible entry price into new vehicle ownership.

Who is the Tiago best for?

  • First-time new-vehicle buyers for whom the lowest possible purchase price is the primary consideration
  • Urban commuters who want a new car warranty and fuel efficiency at the most accessible price point in the new car market
  • Buyers comparing the Suzuki S-Presso, Renault Kwid, and Tata Tiago on value and running costs
  • Second-vehicle buyers who need a cheap, simple daily driver for short urban trips
