If you are planning to buy the upcoming Tata Tiago EV facelift, here is a quick look at the top six changes the buyers need to know.

2026 Tata Tiago EV vs old: A new face

The biggest transformation the 2026 Tata Tiago EV comes with is at the front. The facelifted Tiago EV gets a much cleaner and more modern face compared to the outgoing model. It sports a body-coloured closed-off grille, while new LED headlamps are slimmer than before and now feature eyebrow-shaped LED DRLs, giving the fascia a sharper look. Another key change is the redesigned bumper with vertical styling elements and angular inserts near the edges.

2026 Tata Tiago EV vs old: Subtly significant changes at side and rear

Moving to the side, the compact proportions continue to be there. The new model gets newly designed alloy wheels, Black wheel arch surrounds, gloss-black ORVMs, a shark-fin antenna, and Tata.ev branding on the doors that make it distinct from the outgoing model. The rear profile has also been updated quite extensively with redesigned LED tail lamps featuring vertical light elements, a connected thick gloss-black strip stretching across the tailgate, and a sporty revised bumper.

2026 Tata Tiago EV vs old: Premium cabin

The interior of the 2026 Tata Tiago EV has received a significant number of changes. The cabin feels more modern and premium than before, while retaining the simple and practical look of the hatchback. It continues with the dual-tone Black-Grey theme, but the overall execution has made the cabin look cleaner, softer and more premium than the current model. It sports a clean horizontal layout with layered textures running across the width of the cabin, while the fabric-wrapped upper dashboard adds a premium touch.

2026 Tata Tiago EV vs old: Dual floating screen

There are two free-standing displays adding a major difference, which include a 10.25-inch floating touchscreen infotainment system and a separate digital instrument cluster. The floating-style layout frees up additional storage space, while the lower section integrates wireless charging trays and charging ports more neatly. The dual-spoke steering wheel now carries an offset illuminated Tata.ev logo instead of the standard brand logo.

2026 Tata Tiago EV vs old: Fabric upholstery and rear AC vents

Another notable change is the switch to fabric upholstery. Unlike the outgoing model's leatherette seats in higher variants, the facelifted version uses lighter dual-tone fabric seats throughout the cabin. The new Tiago EV adds rear AC vents and rear charging ports as a new addition.

2026 Tata Tiago EV vs old: 360-degree camera

Speaking of the features focused on driving convenience and safety, the biggest talking point is that the upcoming Tiago EV facelift will come with a 360-degree camera, making it one of the most affordable electric cars in India to offer such a feature.
