Tata Tigor EV: Pioneering the Future of Sustainable Transportation

Tata Tigor EV: There’s not much that distinguishes the Tigor EV from the Tata Tigor models with internal combustion engines, aside from a few stickers and badges. Its distinctive form is enhanced visually by the coupe-like roofline. The inside of the Tigor EV is also well-done. The cabin is larger than it may seem, the seats are nicely bolstered, and the dashboard is cleverly arranged. That being said, there are a few variations from the typical Tigor. First off, a state of charge dial replaces the tachometer. Additionally, the boot instead of the floor houses the spare wheel, reducing the amount of room for luggage to a meagre 255 litres.

The electric motor of the Tata Tigor EV generates 41 horsepower, which is a respectable amount for a car this size. Although the performance is sufficient to keep up with traffic, after 50 kph the speed buildup stops. Additionally, this car is not appropriate for use on highways due to its 80 kph top speed limit. Although we haven’t completed a full test, we anticipate a real-world range of about 130 to 150 kilometres on a full charge. When using a 15kW DC fast charger, the battery pack can be fully charged to 80% capacity in two hours, compared to 11.5 hours with a wall charger.
