Tata’s next expected game changer, the Zica has been finally named ‘Tiago’ after the news surfaced that Zica sounds the same as the Latin American deadly virus, Zika. The other name options, Adore and Civet were found less popular than Tiago, which actually comes with a lot of meanings like ‘the strongest one’ and ‘the one who wins’.
Zica nameplate could have severely affected the reputation of Tata as a global brand and the step was a good one in carrying forward the goodwill of such a brilliant brand. Tiago comes with two engine options and claims to be the most loaded and practical hatchback of it’s segment. It will fight against Maruti Celerio and Hyundai i10, out of which Celerio again offers two engine options including a 2-cylinder diesel.
The petrol power comes from 1.2L, 3-cylinder Revotron engine whereas diesel motor is a 1.05 L, 3-cylinder Revotorq motor, which has been derived from the bigger 4-cylinder motor by Tata. The car now gets nearly 30 days for it’s official launch and it’s future solely depends upon the pricing by Tata Motors.
