We recently reported that the Tiago 2024 now gets cruise control in the XZ NRG and XZ Plus variants. Besides these, Tata have also added a new XZO Plus variant to the lineup. Now, we have learned that the updated Tiago variants with cruise control have started reaching dealers. Thus, we expect the deliveries to start soon.

Cars in the B1-hatchback segment like the Hyundai Grand i10 Nios and Maruti Suzuki Swift have offered cruise control for a good while. Adding cruise control in the Tiago is a positive move from Tata. Unfortunately, the Tiago CNG buyers will not get this feature. It’s fairly standard practice in the industry to not offer cruise control with CNG cars, especially the affordable ones.

But, it’s up to us to demand the feature from the manufacturers. Since the price gap between the XZ Plus/XZ NRG petrol and CNG is consistent (Rs. 95,000), we expect Tata to offer this feature with the Tiago CNG as well. Or, they should at least bring the XZ Plus CNG price down to account for the lack of cruise control, which is otherwise available in the XZ Plus petrol.

The Swift and Nios also don’t offer cruise control with their CNG powertrain. Tata Motors are doing ground-breaking work Tata are doing with CNG cars like:

Offering a usable boot space
Proving option of AMT automatic with CNG
Bringing CNG bi-fuel option to turbo charged engines (upcoming Nexon CNG)

If there’s any brand that can buck the trend of offering cruise control in CNG cars, it has to be Tata Motors. You can often spot CNG cars running on highways. Especially the 1.2L CNG cars are more than capable of cruising on the highways. Moreover, the availability of CNG stations has also grown in recent years making it quite feasible to do a trip in a CNG car.

As far as buying recommendation goes, the XZO Plus petrol-manual and automatic make phenomenal sense as you don’t have to spend on cosmetic features like alloy wheels. Alloy wheels are easier to install post purchase while cruise control is not. So, the XZO Plus is now our top recommendation for Tiago petrol buyers.
