Tata Aeris launched as Tigor successor, starts at Rs 5.29 lakh
Corrected 30 September 2026: analysis rewritten from the sources.
The Story in Brief
Tata Motors has launched the Aeris compact sedan in India, replacing the Tigor. Prices range from Rs 5.29 lakh to Rs 9.74 lakh (ex-showroom) across five variants, with petrol and CNG options available with 5-speed manual and AMT gearboxes, CarWale and Times Now report. The Aeris undercuts the Tigor's entry price by Rs 41,000 but commands a Rs 64,000 premium at the top end, Times Now says.
The sedan features a redesigned exterior with slender LED headlamps, a gloss-black grille, and connected LED taillamps. Inside, it gets a 10.25-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a rotary gear selector, a 360-degree camera, and six airbags as standard. The 1.2-litre petrol engine produces 86 bhp and 113 Nm, the CNG version delivers 75 bhp and 96 Nm, CarWale notes. Bookings are open, with deliveries expected next month.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The sources agree on the entry price but not on the top. CarWale's launch page lists the Aeris from Rs 5.29 lakh to Rs 9.19 lakh, while Times Now's variant guide runs to Rs 9.74 lakh for the Accomplished CNG AMT and calls the prices introductory. No report reconciles the two figures. Under the skin little changes: CarWale says the engine is the same 1.2-litre unit found in the Tiago, offered with CNG and with manual and AMT gearboxes, and describes the car as the Tigor's formula with a new look and upgraded interiors. Deliveries start on 11 October, CarWale says.
