Tata Sumo Gold Returns in a Stunning New Look
The well-known Tata Sumo, a name that means strong and roomy in the Indian car world, is back in 2025 with the brand-new Tata Sumo Gold. This SUV keeps the main good things about the old one but adds modern features, a strong engine, and promises great gas mileage.
A Design That Mixes the Old with the New
The 2025 Tata Sumo Gold has a look that remembers the classic boxy shape of the first Sumo. This shape helped make it seem tough and dependable. But Tata Motors has added a modern touch with smooth LED headlights, a bolder front grill with shiny parts, and stylish 16-inch fancy wheels. The strong-looking wheel areas and high distance from the ground (200mm) not only make it look powerful but also help it drive easily on different kinds of Indian roads. The back looks modern with LED taillights and a sporty bumper, finishing the new look.
Comfortable and Easy-to-Use Inside
Step inside the new Sumo Gold, and you’ll find a large inside space made for comfort and usefulness. Depending on the version, it has comfy seats for 7 to 9 people, making it great for big families and traveling with groups. The seats are soft, promising a comfortable ride even on long trips. The dashboard has a simple and easy-to-use design, with a 7-inch touch screen for entertainment that works with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, making it easy to connect your phone.
Key inside features include:
- Automatic air conditioning with air vents in the back for better comfort.
- Tata iRA connected car technology for more ease and safety features.
- Many storage spots and back seats that fold down in parts (60:40) for better use of space.
- Nice leather-like seat covers in the best versions for a touch of luxury.
- A fully digital screen for the driver that shows important car info clearly.
- Seats that blow cool air in the front and armrests for more comfort on long drives.
- USB charging spots in the front and back to charge devices while traveling.
New Powerful Engine and How It Drives
The 2025 Tata Sumo Gold has a better 2.0L turbo diesel engine that has a good mix of power and good gas mileage. This engine makes 140 horsepower at 3750 rpm and 320 Nm of pulling power between 1500 and 2750 rpm. The SUV lets you choose between a smooth 6-speed manual or an optional 6-speed automatic transmission. It also has different driving modes – Eco, City, and Sport – letting drivers get the best performance and gas use for their needs.
Maybe the most talked-about thing about the new Sumo Gold is that it can go up to 30 kilometers on one liter of fuel in Eco mode under good conditions. This great gas mileage comes from using advanced technologies, including:
- A better system to control engine temperature.
- Engine parts that don’t rub as much.
- A smart part that charges the battery when you slow down.
- A body made of strong but light steel.
- A better shape to move through the air, even though it’s boxy.
- A smart system to manage the battery.
- A feature that stops and starts the engine automatically.
While the real gas mileage might be different, this claim makes the new Sumo Gold a very fuel-efficient SUV in its class.

While the old Sumo Gold stopped being made in 2019, the name is still known for being reliable and useful.
