On the Tata Tiago, it will be powered by a 1.2-litre petrol engine that could make 85PS peak power along with 114Nm of torque. This unit is paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox.

But for the Tiago JTP, it will get a turbocharged 1.2-litre engine. This unit is able to produce 114PS and 150Nm, which is significantly higher than the Tiago.
