If you’re on the hunt for a budget sedan that looks newer than the old Tigor, the Aeris gives you that at a familiar price band. It’s essentially a facelifted Tigor, so you won’t see a radical power change, but the 1.2‑litre petrol engine stays, paired with a 5‑speed manual or AMT that has earned its place in the segment.
The first glimpse of the Aeris shows a slicker front fascia—LED headlights, a narrow daytime running light strip, and fresh fog lamps that the Tigor never had. The rear gets a redesigned tail‑light and bumper, and the notch‑back roofline remains, giving the car a more upscale silhouette without a major redesign.
Inside, Tata is expected to borrow from the updated Tiago, bringing a revised dashboard, a freestanding touchscreen, and automatic climate control. Six airbags will be standard, and powered ORVMs and rear AC vents add a touch of convenience that competitors sometimes skip.
Power‑train choices stay true to the family: a 1.2‑litre petrol, a petrol‑CNG combo, and a new EV variant that will likely use the Tiago EV’s 19.2 kWh or 24 kWh packs. Tata might offer a battery‑as‑a‑subscription plan to lower the upfront cost, a strategy that has worked for the Tiago EV.
Pricing will probably mirror the current Tigor’s ₹5.55‑₹8.84 lakh range for the petrol models, while the EV sibling will open at ₹12.49‑₹13.75 lakh. The launch is set for 25 Sept, with showrooms across major cities expected to roll out the Aeris in the coming weeks.
For buyers, the Aeris means a refreshed aesthetic and feature set without a price hike, plus a clear path into the EV market if that’s where your wallet is headed. Keep an eye on the September 25 launch for the exact trim levels and any special offers that Tata may drop.
