A Hatch with Attitude — It’s a Tiago Thing
In a bold return to the South African market, CMH Tata Durban has launched the 2025 Tiago — a compact hatch designed for the urban-savvy driver who wants style without overspending. With a starting price of R184 900 for the 1.2 XM MT, it arrives as one of the most affordable new cars in its segment.
The Tiago cuts a distinctive figure: a modern front fascia, optional dual-tone roof, shark-fin antenna, and boomerang-shaped rear lights — all adding more personality than most entry-level hatchbacks.
Performance and Power
Powering the Tiago is a 1.2-litre three-cylinder engine producing 63 kW and 113 Nm, paired with either a five-speed manual or an automated manual transmission (AMT) available in the mid-spec XT trim.
Interior Design and Comfort
Inside, the Tiago offers a dual-tone cabin and a digital instrument cluster. At CMH Tata Durban, we’re genuinely impressed with the premium feel — especially at this price point.
Safety and Technology
What truly sets the Tiago apart in this price bracket is its generous safety and tech offering. The base XM model includes:
- Dual airbags
- ABS with EBD
- Rear parking sensors
The XT variant adds even more value with a 7″ touchscreen featuring Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a rearview camera, stability control, hill-hold assist, and other added conveniences.
Smart, Modern, and Built for Everyday Life
For first-time buyers, urban drivers, or anyone seeking budget-friendly mobility without sacrificing modern features, the 2025 Tata Tiago ticks all the right boxes. It offers strong value, fresh styling, and impressive safety and technology for its price.
While it’s not built for breakneck performance, its real strength lies in everyday usability and the amount of kit you get for the money. Book a test drive with CMH Tata Durban and see why we’re backing Tata’s renewed push in South Africa.
