The Tata Tiago facelift is going to come with a stiffer body, improved safety features and of course, cosmetic as well as feature upgrades.
Tata Motors has promised that it will introduce a series of new vehicles in India this year. The sequence, which began with the launch of the Harrier, will be followed by the likes of 45X based premium hatchback soon. However, it seems that there is a wild card in-between. Tata Motors is currently also working on a mid-life update for the Tiago compact hatchback.
We believe that Tata Motors is going to launch the 45X based premium hatchback in India sometime later this year. Ahead of this, the homegrown automaker could introduce the mid-life facelift for the Tiago hatchback.
