Tata Motors has officially launched its newest sub-4-meter compact sedan, the Tata Aeris, with an introductory ex-showroom starting price of just ₹5.29 Lakh.While it sits in the entry-level sedan segment to take on the Maruti Suzuki Dzire, Hyundai Aura, and Honda Amaze, Tata has treated this car like a gadget on wheels.
From ventilated seats to an integrated surround dashcam and twin-cylinder CNG with AMT, let’s dive into everything new!
What’s New on the Outside?
Tata didn’t just slap on a new badge; the Aeris gets a refreshed, sharper design language inspired by Tata’s newer generation fleet:
- Front Profile:Sleek, swept-back LED headlamps with eyebrow-style LED DRLs, a gloss-black front grille, and pixel-styled LED fog lamps.
- Side Silhouette:15-inch dual-tone diamond-cut alloy wheels (on upper trims) with clean character lines and subtle wheel arch cladding.
- Rear Design:Redesigned connected-look LED taillight cluster and that signature high-mounted wide stop lamp spanning the top of the rear windscreen.
- Color Options:Six shades—Nitro Crimson, Pure Grey, Dandeli Drizzle, Pristine White, Daytona Grey, and Dune Glow.
Cabin & Tech: Packed with Segment-Firsts
Step inside, and this doesn’t feel like a budget commuter. The tech upgrade is the real head-turner here:

Powertrain & Transmission: Petrol and Smart i-CNG
Tata offers the Aeris across five primary trims—Smart, Pure, Pure+, Creative, and Accomplished. Under the hood, you get two proven setups:
| Spec / Engine | 1.2L Revotron Petrol | 1.2L i-CNG (Twin-Cylinder) |
| Power | 86 PS @ 6,000 rpm | 75.5 PS @ 6,000 rpm |
| Torque | 113 Nm @ 3,300 rpm | 96.5 Nm @ 3,500 rpm |
| Gearbox Options | 5-speed Manual / 5-speed AMT | 5-speed Manual / 5-speed AMT |
| Usable Boot Space | 419 Litres | 227 Litres (twin tanks under floor) |
The standout feature on the CNG front remains Tata’s Twin-Cylinder technology.Unlike single large cylinders that eat up the entire trunk, the Aeris tucks two smaller cylinders under the boot floor, leaving a usable 227-litre boot space—the best in the CNG sedan class.Plus, having an AMT automatic gearbox with CNG makes it one of the easiest city runabouts you can buy.
Safety: Standard 6 Airbags
Tata’s safety pedigree continues here:
- 6 Airbags standardacross all variants from the base ₹5.29L model.
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Hill Hold Control, ABS with EBD, and corner stability control.
- Blind View Monitoring: When you flick the indicator, the center screen streams the side blind-spot camera view.
- ISOFIX child seat mountsand Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (iTPMS).
