Tata Tigor vs Mahindra KUV100 NXT Comparison

The Tata Tigor knows exactly what it needs to be. It is not trying to be a corner-carving sports sedan. Instead, it serves as a highly practical, pocket-friendly runabout for the everyday buyer. The addition of the iCNG AMT variant is also a massive win for urban drivers who want low running costs without the constant excessive fuel consumption in bad traffic.

Remarkably, the 1.2-litre engine lacks some punch when revved hard, and the cabin materials are a bit workmanlike compared to the premium feel of the Hyundai Aura. However, it filters out road bumps brilliantly, keeping occupants comfortable over pothole-ridden terrain. Overall, if you want a safe, solid car that keeps your fuel bills low, the Tigor is an incredibly smart buy.

Seshan summarises,

“If you’re looking for a frugal, city-friendly automatic, the Tigor iCNG AMT ticks all the right boxes.”

M&M has facelifted its smallest offering, the KUV 100 and given it as many as 40 changes overall. The KUV 100 NXT is an improvement on the car for sure. But it is still far from being the segment best. It's quirky and does attract with its SUV appeal. Mahindra should see some renewed success with the facelifted car - though should start to think about better connectivity interfaces like Apple CarPlay, Android Auto.
