Tata Tigor

Tata Tigor: With Some Personality: A Compact Ride

When picking out a new car, I want something not an ‘option’ but a direct translation of ‘ride my language’. For me that is where the Tata Tigor does stand out. It has a style that’s not as obvious but if you are watching you notice it. The Tigor doesn’t need loud exteriors or flashy lines, it has a way of saying, “I am here and I have got something for you.” If you are like me you will love its quiet confidence, it's got flair and it’s practical.

Design You Can Relate To

Sucker for a car that gives you a hard pass for attention and the Tigor hits the bull’s eye. They’ve got these sleek clean lines that make it look good from every angle. The Tigor feels like imagine your friend who always manage to look put together even on a casual day. Those split LED taillights, and those. They’re just the perfect amount of style without being overly styley. It is a subtle tip of the hat to good design, without being peaky.

Performance: Smooth as a Hot Pancake on a Butter.

So let’s get real about what’s under the hood. With an engine that'll have you skipping through city drives without draining your fuel budget the Tigor has been given an engine with some punch. It’s responsive enough to handle whether I am running around town or letting the open road do its thing, with enough pep forward to keep things interesting. It’s not going to hold you to the edge of your seat, but you’ll get a satisfying kick out of it. I don’t need to blast through 0 to 100 and then back down again… for me, that’s perfect enough to make driving enjoyable.

Room to Breathe (and Stretch)

The Tigor surprises you by feeling roomy inside step in. Now, I’ve been in more than enough “compact” cars where your passenger is elbowing you just to change the radio. Not here. Plenty of headroom and legroom is this the amount of it that even my taller friends don’t ever complain about headroom and legroom. But that’s never been an issue, I’ve banged my head on car roofs but not here. And the trunk? It gets enough space for grocery run, weekend bags or even that once in a while IKEA haul.

Feeling like a conversation in technology

One major highlight about driving the Tigor must be the infotainment system. The Tigor’s system doesn’t seem to fancy messy tech when I’m on the road. It’s intuitive and it’s easy to connect to Apple car play or Android auto and my playlists just synced together without any hassle. The Harman sound system is a game changer and let’s talk about it. I’ve had friends in the car who couldn’t believe the sound quality. Imagine having a concert that you can hear in your car that’s a great way to defuse traffic jams!

Safety: It’s not just about you

This is because …

There’s no reason to play with fire and Tata seems to get that as well. The dual airbags, ABS with EBD and corner stability control makes for a package of comforts on the Tigor. The existence of these features makes me think of that trusty friend that has always got your back and is always trying to keep you out trouble when things get dicey. When the unexpected comes knocking, it just makes every drive a bit easier knowing I’ve got that kind of security on my side.

Final Thoughts: All Heart, A Compact Sedan

What then is the Tata Tigor worth then? For me absolutely. This car isn’t here to blow anyone away with insane speeds or over the top features. Practical, a little styled down, it's reliable, enjoyable drive every time I get in the car. If you are on the hunt for a car more focused on the trip than the race the Tigor could be for you. And getting heart is exactly what makes it a winner in my book.
