Maruti Suzuki is all set to launch another hatchback in India in the coming months. The new hatchback in question here is the Ignis, which is likely to be marketed as a mini SUV.

In this Maruti Ignis vs Tata Tiago post, we will compare the two on the basis of price, specifications, features and more.

If our estimates are even close to the actual pricing, then the Tiago will be considerably cheaper than the Ignis. But then again, these two aren’t exactly direct rivals. The base variant of the Maruti Ignis and the top end variant of the Tiago could have similar pricing.

In all probability, Ignis will share its engine lineup with other Maruti products. Therefore, it will be powered by a 1.2 L Petrol and a 1.3 L Diesel motor. Transmission options will include a 5-speed manual or a 5-speed AMT (petrol only). While the Tiago diesel features a smaller, less powerful engine, the petrol variants of the Tiago are just as powerful as those of the Ignis. If the Ignis gets Maruti’s mild hybrid tech (SHVS) then the Ignis could turn out to be more fuel efficient than the Tiago Diesel.

Maruti Ignis vs Tata Tiago Design Comparison
The Maruti Ignis’ SUV-like styling makes it stand out from the crowd. It is sure to be big selling point here in India. The front features a very unique grille and headlamp setup with LED daytime running lights. Expect the Ignis to come with black body cladding, roof rails, etc. The rear isn’t as flamboyant as the front and might not be to everyone’s liking. The Tiago is easily one of the best looking Tatas till date. Indian public seems to have reacted well to the way the small hatchback looks. However, it does not have the SUV-appeal of the Ignis.
As far as the cabin is concerned, the Ignis gets a very interesting and modern dashboard design. The touchscreen infotainment system or the audio system in the Ignis does not sit flush with the centre console. In order to spruce things up a little, the Ignis’ cabin could get body coloured highlights. The Tata Tiago features a neat and functional dashboard layout. It gets body colour highlights as an option on certain variants and colours. Being a segment lower, the Tiago does not get as many features as the Ignis.

- Specifications – Ignis’ diesel engine bigger and more powerful. Tiago petrol makes the same amount of power as Ignis petrol.

- Design – The Ignis is definitely a very eye-catching design. But looks are a matter of personal taste so we will leave this one up to you.
