Since the roads in India are so varied and often challenging, the ride quality of a car is essential to comfort. As a budget hatchback, the Tata Tiago is under the radar for how it fares in such conditions versus its rivals. The suspension setup, steering feel and overall comfort level are as confused within the minds of the owners and reviewers of the Tiago. You hear some people call it a great shock absorber that soaks up the bumps and potholes and others say it's too stiff or bouncy. And the debate frequently goes as far as how the Tiago does on different kinds of roads – be it smooth highways or rough rural roads. This discussion is especially important for people who prefer comfort for daily commutes or long journeys. It also deals with the tradeoff between ride comfort and handling, which some will say softening the ride up can trade away stability as you go faster.
