Tata Sierra Mileage
₹11.49 Lakh to ₹21.59 Lakhex-showroom
ARAI has certified the Sierra's 1.5 litre diesel at 18.8 km/l and the 160 PS turbo petrol at 13.5 km/l. Tata itself has not published mileage figures for the Sierra.
The figures are given per engine, with no split by gearbox, so the diesel manuals and the Accomplished Plus Diesel AT all show 18.8 km/l below. The turbo petrol comes only with the six speed automatic.
The 105 bhp 1.5 litre petrol, used on most trims and on the Pure DCA, has no published figure yet, so it is left out of the table. To weigh the engines another way, compare the Sierra trims and their fuels.
On paper, the 50 litre tank gives the diesel a range of about 940 km and the turbo petrol about 675 km. City traffic and constant air conditioning pull real numbers down on both.

Mileage is how far the Sierra travels on one litre of fuel (or one kg of CNG). A bigger number means you spend less on fuel. Carmakers quote an ARAI lab figure; in real driving you get a bit less, so both are shown below.
