Which Tata Tiago variant should you buy?
There are 20 ways to buy a Tiago, across 6 trims, from ₹4.70L to ₹8.55L ex-showroom Delhi.
Pound for pound the ladder pays best at Creative: ₹0.50L more than Pure Plus A, and it is the step that hands back the most kit for the money.
Above that, the one to think hardest about is Creative Plus. At ₹0.30L over Creative it asks the most per feature of anything higher up the range, so take it because you want what it adds, not because it is next.
How this is worked out: every step below compares the cheapest way into one trim with the cheapest way into the next, then weighs what the money buys against what it costs. No opinion is added on top, and nothing is rounded in a trim's favour. Read the full method.

Creative to Creative Plus
+₹0.30L (from ₹7.30L)
The dearest step above that one for what it adds. Worth it only if you want this kit specifically.
- Auto-dimming mirror
Where the kit that matters lands
- Airbags: all 6 are standard from the base Smart, so nobody has to spend up for them.
- Safety kit: Creative, from ₹7.00L, is the cheapest trim with every safety feature this car offers at its best. Spending past it buys comfort and cosmetics, not protection.
- Automatic: the cheapest is the Pure Petrol AT at ₹6.00L. See it
Then there is the engine
Picking the trim is only half of it. The Tiago is sold with 2 powertrains, and the cheapest way into each is a different amount of money.

- Which Tata Tiago variant gives the most for the money?

- Is the Creative Plus worth it?
