- NRG is the more 'rugged' cousin of the normal Tiago
- NRG CNG available in XT and XZ trims only
- Premium of Rs 90,000 over the regular petrol model
CNG is the new 'popular' fuel type in India and Tata Motors too understands this. After the successful launch of the CNG variants of the Tigor and Tiago, the company has now launched the green fuel version of the 'rugged' version of the Tiago, the Tiago NRG. Do remember, the NRG is currently sold only in the XT and XZ versions only, not in the base ones and the CNG option is now available with both these trims.
While the Tata Tiago NRG CNG XT is priced at Rs 7.4 lakh, the top spec XZ trim of the NRG CNG is priced at Rs 7.8 lakh. Both these prices are ex-showroom. For the added Rs 40k, customers will get dual tone 15-inch hyper wheels, cooled glove box, push button start with true keyless entry, 17.78cm touchscreen powered by Harman, rear camera etc.
With this new launch, Tata Motors now has two CNG options in the hatchback segment. The CNG motor puts out 73 PS of power and 95 Nm of torque. We had driven the same engine powered Tiago CNG from Kashmir to Kanyakumari sometime back and can swear by the performance and efficient nature of the motor. Plus, the Tiago comes with a 4-star crash test rating, thereby given you a peace of mind factor. The NRG CNG models look identical to the petrol ones, apart from the iCNG badging around the body.
Verdict: Want a 'rugged' looking green and efficient hatchback? The NRG iCNG might be the right option!
