Engine Displacement: 1,197 cc (Petrol) / 24 kWh (EV LR)
The internal combustion variant of the Tata Tiago is powered by the 1.2L Revotron engine, a 3-cylinder unit optimized for city efficiency. For the Tiago.ev (Long Range), the vehicle swaps the pistons for a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor and a high-energy-density Lithium-ion battery pack. This electric powertrain offers instant torque delivery, a characteristic hallmark of Tata’s Ziptron technology.
Max Power: 86 PS (Petrol) / 74 bhp (EV LR)
The petrol engine produces a peak power of 86 PS @ 6000 RPM. In contrast, the Electric (LR) variant delivers approximately 74 bhp (55 kW). While the raw PS figures are similar, the EV provides a more linear power band, making it exceptionally nimble in stop-and-go traffic compared to its naturally aspirated counterpart.
Max Torque: 113 Nm (Petrol) / 114 Nm (EV)
Torque output remains remarkably consistent across both versions. The petrol Revotron peaks at 113 Nm at 3300 RPM, requiring some downshifting for overtakes. The EV variant offers 114 Nm available from 0 RPM, providing that "instant pull" without the delay associated with engine spooling or gear changes.
0-100 km/h Time: 5.7 Seconds (0-60 km/h for EV)
While a full 0-100 km/h sprint for the petrol takes roughly 14-15 seconds, the Tiago.ev is tuned for urban "zip." It reaches 60 km/h in just 5.7 seconds, allowing it to win most "stoplight GPs." The top speed is electronically governed at approximately 120 km/h for the EV to preserve range, while the petrol can reach roughly 150 km/h.
