Their website lists 9 not 19 as the base price, as does multiple other sources. https://tiagoev.tatamotors.com/ https://tiagoev.tatamotors.com/

> It doesn't cost 9 lakhs. It costs 19 lakhs The source[1] I found immediately showed a range from 8.5 to 11.8 lakh. If you're going to criticize someone for not providing facts and sources, you should do the same yourself.

  GP is right, it costs nearly 18-19 lakh on road. Auto websites are a much better source of prices. See: https://www.cardekho.com/tata/nexon-ev-prime https://www.cardekho.com/tata/nexon-ev-prime However, there are cheaper EVs available from the Tata stable, such as Tigor EV for under 12 lakh, so the point stands.

    The price comments are all talking about the Tata Tiago. The link you sent is about the price of the Tata Nexon, which isn't relevant.

    I drive a Tata Nexon EV 30kwh battery, 3.5 KW charger which I bought for Rs 1.6 million (16 lakh). The new ones with 40kwh battery, 7 KW charger costs Rs 1.9 million (19 lakh). On road is lesser due to subsidies (not sure if there are any active subsidies). Tata Tiago is priced much lesser. I would be vary of range as advertised (unlike many other countries). My car gives me practical range of 220 kms and the advertised range is 312 kms. I drive at 115 to 125 WH per km, my wife drives at 135 to 150 WH per km.

You realize Tata's latest cars have the highest safety rating in India, right ? All the Korean-Japanese makers otoh are selling sub-standard "tin-cans". Anyone who knows Hindi can check out what Indians broadly think of Tata (as opposed to say, Suzuki) on Youtube.

To clarify, Tata Tiago (going to be released in 2023, announced yesterday) costs Rs. 9 lakhs. (11000 USD) - https://tiagoev.tatamotors.com https://tiagoev.tatamotors.com Tata Nexon EV (released a few years back) costs Rs. 16-19 lakhs. (23000 USD) - https://nexonev.tatamotors.com/ https://nexonev.tatamotors.com/ A medium model between the two also exists, Tata Tigor, costs about Rs. 14 Lakhs (17000 USD) - https://tigorev.tatamotors.com/ https://tigorev.tatamotors.com/

Tata cars are heavily built man. They are rock solid, have great safety ratings and many prefer them for their build quality. What I understand is that in India - Buy Maruti for efficiency and low cost of spares and service - Buy Tata or Mahindra for build quality and sturdiness - Buy Honda / Hyundai for good engines but high cost of spares and service.

  I was originally going to bring up previous experiences (years ago) watching crash tests with Indian-market Tata cars being pretty much nightmares in crash tests, but looking at their recent stuff it doesn't look half bad. Good on all those engineers working hard to deliver a good product and save lives. If these EVs being talked about are on similar design platforms, they're probably pretty decent safety-wise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMHby0oHFM8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GMHby0oHFM8
