Is the Skoda Slavia or the Tata Tigor EV cheaper?

The Skoda Slavia, by ₹2.50L: it starts at ₹9.99L against ₹12.49L ex-showroom for the Tigor EV. Both run well past that, so what you actually pay depends on the variant.

Which is more practical, the Skoda Slavia or the Tata Tigor EV?

On the figures the makers publish, the Slavia swallows 521 litres of luggage against 316. Everything else about living with them, from boot shape to how the back seat actually feels, is a test drive question rather than a spec sheet one.

Which is cheaper as an automatic, the Skoda Slavia or the Tata Tigor EV?

Neither: they ask exactly the same money as an automatic, ₹12.49L ex-showroom, so this one is not the tie-breaker between them. A gearbox is usually the biggest single step on either ladder, so check what else that trim brings before you read it as the price of the automatic alone.
