A separate 316-litre boot is the Tigor EV's quiet advantage — sedan luggage space with the battery under the floor, so nothing intrudes on cargo or the five seats inside the 3,993 mm compact body. In a sedan segment of 46 cars whose median price is dragged to ₹72.5 lakh by luxury metal, the Tigor EV sits 14th cheapest at ₹12.49-13.75 lakh, making it one of a tiny handful of electric three-box cars ordinary buyers can actually consider. Its only true sibling rival is Tata's own fleet-focused Xpres T EV at ₹13.04 lakh.

The numbers are commuter-sized and honest about it: a 26 kWh battery, 315 km of claimed range, and 75 PS with 170 Nm through a single-speed automatic, with Drive and Sport modes to choose between calm and slightly-less-calm. Four variants keep the walk simple, and the kit list is sensible rather than showy — automatic climate control, projector headlamps, an EV-accented digital cluster, real-time vehicle tracking, leatherette on top trims and rain-sensing wipers. At 6 PS per lakh this is transport economics, not performance; its case is measured in rupees per kilometre.

Tigor EV vs Tata Xpres T EV: ₹13.04 lakh, single variant, 391 km claimed from a bigger 32 kWh pack but only 36 PS — the fleet-spec cousin with more range and less pace. See the Tata Xpres T EV.
The Tigor EV survives on a niche it owns almost alone: the affordable electric sedan. Judged inside that niche it is a sound tool — the 316-litre boot, automatic climate control and 315 km claim cover commuter life completely. Judged against the wider EV market it is outgunned by its own showroom sibling, which is why the buying advice is blunt: choose the mid variant, keep the spend near ₹13 lakh, and only sign after you have sat in a Nexon EV and confirmed the sedan shape is genuinely what you want.
₹12.49 lakh to ₹13.75 lakh (ex-showroom) across 4 variants.
315 km claimed from the 26 kWh battery. For planning, assume a comfortable 70-80% of that in real mixed use with air conditioning.
No — the 316-litre boot is intact because the pack sits under the floor. That practical, uncompromised sedan boot is the car's main draw.
It manages — 75 PS and 170 Nm hold triple-digit cruises, and Sport mode sharpens responses. But it is happiest in town; sustained fast highway running also shrinks range fastest.
The Nexon EV (from ₹12.49 lakh) has 129 PS and a 489 km claim versus 75 PS and 315 km. Choose the Tigor only if you specifically want a sedan with a separate boot.
For 1,500 km of city running on home charging, electricity comes to roughly ₹1,000-1,500 at typical tariffs (indicative) — a fraction of the ₹7,000-8,000 a petrol equivalent would burn.
