New Delhi: Tata Motors, one of the country's leading automobile companies, has announced the launch of its new electric vehicle. After the launch of Nexon EV last year, the company has now launched an electric version of the Tigor. This car can be booked for just Rs 21,000 at select Tata Motor dealerships. It is being told that its sale can start from August 31. 

This car will be launched in Teal Blue color. Information about its rate and range will be given at launch. The Tigor EV will have a maximum power output of 55 KW and a maximum torque of 170 Nm. This car will accelerate from 0 to 60 kilometers per hour in 5.7 seconds. It has a 26 KWh Lithian Ion battery.
