Tata Tiago EV was launched in September 2022 as the most affordable electric car in India. The car maintained the status for a while with the price tag of Rs 8.49 lakh (ex-showroom). However, the prices of the electric hatchback are set to increase in January by up to 3-4 percent. The exact amount of the increase has not been announced yet but is expected to be in the vicinity of Rs 30,000 to 35,000. The price hike is expected because, at the time of the launch, Tata Motors had announced that the introductory prices of the electric vehicle would be only for the first 10,000 customers of the car.
Tata Tiago EV crossed the mark of 10,000 consumers earlier, but the prices of the electric car were not increased as the Indian automaker extended the offer to 20,000 consumers. However, the introductory price changes might not be the only reason for the price hike. Recently, Tata Motors announced a price hike across the model lineup, citing rising input costs, and the same reason is expected to play a part in the price hike of the Tata Tiago EV as well.
