The sub 4-metre proportions are almost coupe like with its sloping roofline and well designed tail section and the petrol variant with the 15-inch wheels looks the most appealing. The diesel variants on the other hand get only 14-inch alloy wheels on the top of the line car. The Tigor also gets a blacked out headlamp cluster with projector low beams and a halogen high beam setup and LED tail lamps with a high mounted LED third brake light which lights up end to end on the rear windscreen. A roof mounted spoiler that envelops this high mounted third brake lamp also adds to the great design. The Tigor gets a decent list of features as well. (Tata Tigor Review) On the inside, the Tigor is well designed and well made with good quality plastics and fabrics. The Tigor also gets a touchscreen center console with mirror link capabilities but does not get a much needed Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. The Tigor, in its top spec variants also gets colour codded AC vents just like the Tiago did. The rear seating is spacious in terms of shoulder room and leg room although taller passengers might have slightly less headroom due to the sloping roofline. The rear bench seat also gets a fold down hand rest but no rear AC vents. Read about our first impressions of the Tata Tigor, here.
