These new iCNG models boast an impressive mileage of 28.06 Km/kg.
The Tata Tiago iCNG AMT is available in four variants – XTA, XTA+, XZA+, and XZA NRG. Conversely, the Tigor iCNG AMT comes in two variants – XZA and XZA+.

Both the Tata Tiago and Tigor iCNG variants are powered by the same 1.2-litre three-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine, equipped with the company’s dual-cylinder CNG kit. Now, customers have the choice of a 5-speed AMT unit alongside the manual transmission. In CNG mode, these cars produce a reduced output of 72 bhp and 95 Nm of peak torque, compared to 85 bhp and 113 Nm on the pure-petrol version. The Tiago and Tigor CNG AMTs also feature twin-cylinder technology, freeing up more space in the boot for added practicality.
