The Tata Tigor facelift is likely to be launched on October 10, 2018. The updated model will be offered in 4 variants - XE, XM, XZ and a new top-spec XZ+ trim. The XT variant will no longer be available. 

Reports also suggest that Tata Motors has commenced sales training for the Tigor facelift. The production of the outgoing model was stopped a few months back.

Recent spy images of the car have already revealed most of the changes made to the Tigor. The facelift will get minor tweaks to the front end and clear lens tail lamps. The car will come with a larger touchscreen infotainment system. Also, the Tigor will be offered in a new blue exterior colour. 

While the engine options are expected to remain the same, reports suggest that Tata Motors has tweaked the engines in order to reduce noise and vibrations. The current Tigor is offered with a 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine which makes 84 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 114 Nm @ 3,500 rpm and a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder diesel that puts out 69 BHP @ 4,000 rpm and 140 Nm @ 1,800-3,000 rpm. Transmission options include a 5-speed manual and 5-speed AMT.

The upcoming Tata Tigor facelift has leaked online. The latest images reveal the various updates made to the compact sedan.

The spy images indicate that the Tigor facelift will receive revised headlamps with projectors and chrome inserts, chrome trim along the grille, bumper and around the fog lamp pods. The car gets blacked-out B-pillars with a chrome strip along the window line. It has ORVMs with integrated turn signals, clear lens tail lamps, a shark fin antenna and 5-spoke dual-tone alloy wheels. On the inside, this particular car is equipped with a touchscreen infotainment system, bigger than the one currently offered. The centre console itself has a silver fascia, while the 3-spoke multi-function steering wheel has been retained.

Reports suggest that Tata is likely to add a new XZ+ variant to the Tigor line-up. It is rumoured to get features like rear centre armrest with cupholders, height adjustable driver seat, power folding ORVMs, shark fin antenna and a new blue exterior colour option.

The Tigor facelift is expected to use the same engines as its predecessor. It is likely to be offered with a 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine that produces 84 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 114 Nm @ 3,500 rpm and a 1.0-litre, 3-cylinder diesel that puts out 69 BHP @ 4,000 rpm and 140 Nm @ 1,800-3,000 rpm. Transmission options might include a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT.

Tata Motors has launched the Tigor AMT in the Indian market. The model will be available in two variants - XTA and XZA priced at Rs. 5.75 lakhs and Rs. 6.22 lakhs respectively (ex-showroom, Delhi).

The Tigor AMT in XZA trim gets alloy wheels, projector head lamps with follow me home function and an end-to-end LED high-mounted stop lamp. The interiors are finished in a dual-tone theme and it comes with a Harman infotainment system with 4 speakers and 2 tweeters. The App Suite is standard and consists of turn-by-turn navigation, Juke-Car, Tata smart manual and service connect features. Features like ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, front fog lamps are standard on both the variants. In the XTA trim, the Tigor AMT misses out on projector lights and instead gets conventional headlights and steel wheels in place of alloys. Driver and passenger side airbags are only available on the XZA trim.

The Tigor AMT is only offered with a petrol engine. The 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder unit is the same engine that powers the Tiago AMT. It produces 84 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 114 Nm of torque @ 3,500 rpm. The engine is paired with a Magneti Marelli-sourced automated manual gearbox which has four gear positions - Automatic, Neutral, Reverse and Manual. It comes with a creep function and has a Sports mode.

The Tigor AMT will rival the Maruti Suzuki Dzire with Auto Gear Shift (AGS) in the Indian market.

Tata Motors is reportedly working on an AMT variant of the Tigor compact sedan. Though the car maker hasn't officially revealed any timeline for the automatic variant's launch, the company's marketing head, Vivek Srivatsa, has claimed that the Tigor AMT launch is 'not far'.

The Tigor was launched last month at prices starting from Rs. 4.7 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). It is currently available with two powertrain options: a 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol and a 1.05-litre, 3-cylinder diesel, both of which are available only with a 5-speed manual gearbox. However, Tata acknowledges the fact that the Indian automotive market is showing acceptance towards automatic transmissions, and thus will introduce an AMT variant soon.

The AMT unit used in the Tigor will likely be similar to the one that is found in the recently launched Tiago AMT which is sourced from Magneti Marelli. On the Tigor, it will likely come with the petrol engine option and will feature a 'Sports' mode and creep function, similar to the Tiago's setup.
