      I drive a Maruti car. Its mileage is good, and maintenance is low. Whether the road is good or bad, it drives smoothly. The safety is also good. It's a great company.

      Tata Tiago CNG – Smart, Safe, and Super-Efficient! I’ve been using the Tata Tiago CNG for a few months now, and I must say it’s one of the best choices in the CNG segment currently. Tata has really delivered a smart package here for city commuters and budget-conscious buyers. Performance & Efficiency The dual-cylinder CNG setup ensures you get great mileage without compromising boot space—a big plus. On CNG, the car feels smooth and refined for everyday driving. Acceleration isn’t lightning-fast, but it’s more than adequate for city traffic. The mileage is consistently above 26–28 km/kg, which is a huge cost saver in the long run. Safety This is where Tata scores high. The Tiago comes with dual airbags, ABS with EBD, corner stability control, and a solid 4-star Global NCAP rating. It feels sturdy and secure—rare in this budget segment. ? Features & Comfort You get everything you need: a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, steering-mounted controls, cooled glovebox, and a great Harman audio system. The cabin is spacious, and rear-seat comfort is good for the class. Ride quality is also pretty mature—bumps are handled well. Value for Money The Tiago CNG is very competitively priced and gives you a lot for your money. Low running costs, good features, and strong safety credentials make it a smart long-term investment. Final Verdict: If you’re looking for a safe, reliable, and fuel-efficient hatchback with the flexibility of petrol and CNG, the Tata Tiago CNG is one of the best options in India right now. Perfect for city drives, occasional highway trips, and those looking to cut down on fuel expenses without compromising on safety or style.
