Tata Unveils 2026 Tiago Facelift With Faster Charging and Lower EV Entry Prices

Small LFP battery packs, faster DC charging and Battery‑as‑a‑Service lower Tiago.ev entry prices.

Overview

  • Tata has launched the 2026 Tiago range in petrol, factory‑fitted iCNG and electric versions with confirmed pricing and a BaaS option to reduce the EV upfront cost.
  • The Tiago.ev keeps 19.2 kWh and 24 kWh LFP batteries but adds updated pack software and hardware to support faster DC charging and manufacturer‑claimed quick fills.
  • Real‑world tests and independent drives report city ranges of roughly 150–220 km depending on pack size and validate markedly faster charging compared with the outgoing Tiago.ev.
  • Reviewers praise the new dual‑screen cabin, upgraded safety kit including six airbags and ESP, and the car’s urban ride and handling, while repeatedly flagging fit‑and‑finish problems and some missing features on certain trims.
  • Tata says demand and EV bookings are rising and it plans to lift monthly EV output, but battery and component supplier limits will constrain how quickly production can scale and how widely buyers can access DC chargers.
