The wheels are replaced with wider rally wheels and low profile tyres. Once that was done, the front and the rear fender on the hatchback was redesigned. It was done in order to accommodate the wide wheels. The fenders are designed in a way that it makes the car more aerodynamic. The car was then lowered and the front bumper and the side got body skirting to enhance the lowered look of the car. No changes have been made to the front grille, headlamps and fog lamps. Headlamps have been smoked and the lower grille is now bigger than stock version.
Overall, the hatchback looks a lot more wider and muscular than the original version. Other changes on the car include a modified bonnet. it gets two air vents and the vent is kept in place use hood pins. A roof scoop has been installed and a huge spoiler is also installed at the rear. The tail lamps have been blacked out and there is a diffuser at the rear as well. As this is designed to look like a rally car, the car would also be getting a roll cage, bucket seats and other features that are there on the stock Tiago will be removed. This actually completes the look of the car.
The final render actually looks very different and sporty from stock version. The matte black and grey finish on the hatchback gives it a sporty look. Red Bull, Total and Tata Motors livery can also be seen on the car at places. The render looks brilliant and the artist was successful in converting a regular hatchback into a rally car.
