Leading the current electric vehicle personal segment market with a 70% market share, Tata Motors is assertive that the all-new Tigor EV will democratize the electric mobility offerings in India. The Tigor EV delivers a peak power output of 55 kW and a peak torque of 170 Nm and is powered by a 26-kWh liquid-cooled, high energy density battery pack and an IP 67 rated battery pack and motor to make it weather and worry-proof.

Based on a proven platform with Rear Crash suited structure, the car is compatible with globally acceptable CCS2 charging protocol and can be fast-charged as well as slow-charged from any 15 A plug point, added Tata.

Earlier this month, in a move to enhance the country’s electric mobility, Tata Motors delivered 35 Starbus electric buses as a part of a larger order of 340 electric buses to BEST, a civic transport and electricity provider public body based in Mumbai, Maharashtra.
