If you’re eyeing a step up from the Maruti Dzire, Tata’s new Aeris claims to pack more tech in a slimmer price band. But it’s not just a trim‑plate; the 10.25‑inch screen is a game changer for anyone who spends long hours on navigation or music.
The entry‑level Creative variant starts at ₹5.29 lakh, while the top‑end Accomplished variant tops out at ₹9.74 lakh. Those figures sit comfortably below the Dzire’s ₹6.31‑₹9.54 lakh range, offering a cheaper base option without skimping on safety.
Ventilated front seats appear only on the Accomplished trim – a welcome relief for the heat‑soaked drives in southern India. And the dash isn’t just a screen; the factory‑fitted dashcam and a blind‑view monitor that works with a 360‑degree camera give a closer look at blind spots, a rarity in this segment.
Rain‑sensing wipers and a cooled glovebox add a touch of convenience rarely seen in a sub‑₹10 lakh sedan. Paddle shifters, too, appear on the automatic variants, giving a sportier shift feel that the Dzire simply lacks.
Deliveries kick off on 11 October 2026 – a spring launch that aligns with the monsoon‑season demand spike. Buyers can book online or at Tata dealerships across major metros, with a phased roll‑out expected to hit tier‑2 cities by December.
Watch for pricing tweaks and after‑sales network expansions in the next quarter; Tata’s strategy here could reshape how mid‑priced sedans compete in India’s crowded market.
