This is not Tata's first attempt on EVs - the company previously unveiled the Bolt EV concept in the UK

Tata choosing the Tiago to be developed as an EV may have to do with the fact that it was part of a UK government initiative to develop autonomous cars.

The Tiago was first launched in India in early 2016 and garnered a lot of popularity. It is currently available in India in both petrol and diesel versions and underpins the same platform that is also used on Tata's latest subcompact sedan Tigor.
