The compact Sedan
segment is one of the hottest segments in the Indian market especially with the
recently launched the Hyundai Excent, the Honda Amaze and of course the Maruti
Dzire and now there is going to be a new entrant in the form of the Tata Zest.
This is just a not new car in fact this
is one of the most important car, the Tata Motors will ever roll out. So the
big question is what that Tata Motor’s Zest all about is. Well let’s find out.
The Tata’s Zest is all about the new design language and it
all starts from the front, with the new Tata signature grill, the new sharp cut
headlamps and the aggressive front bumper design. The Zest has also projected
headlamps with Chrome Extants, DRL’s, Rear LED’s, 15 Inches Alloy Wheels plus
the snazzy color options that you see. The over all design is much better than
I think Tata has ever made. And also in first impression, the build quality has
also been improved. Inside there has been Massive improvement over the Manza
and the Vista , the better quality material and
ultra modern designed. You certainly like the most sporty steering like the one
in the Vista . On the features front Tata
Motors has packet in a lot and they really mean by that. You get a new
infotainments system over here, Bluetooth, Smart Phone Recognition, Smart Phone
Integration which also supports phone in built navigation, Social Media
Integration and Touch Phone Control Interface. When it comes to space, the rear
seats are very comfortable, and of course head room and leg room, a Tata Motors
Strength remains. Over all the Zest Cabin is really good place to be in
certainly with its Rivals and other competitors in this regard.
The Tata Zest will have 2 Engine Options, starting with the
new Riverton 85 BHP 1.2 Turbo Charged Petrol Engine. Now the Turbo Charged 2 is
the new beginning for Tata Motors and one of the biggest benefits is of course
Fuel Economy. Tata Motors actually has not revealed the figures but we expect
the Zest has to deliver good economy figures. Now the Tata Motors has also
launched the Zest with 90 BHP Diesel with 200 NM of torque. The talking point
is that the Tata Zest diesel will have a 5 speed automated manual gear box. The
Tata Zest also features new electronic power assisted steering, new ABS and
dual part suspension for a better ride. Tata Motors is likely to launch the
Zest around June 2014 as the company is already heavily promoting this car, now
Tata Motors will only release the Variants and Prices by its official launch
but looking at the Technology and the features, it seems the Tata Zest will
become a threat to the segment leaders. Now we expect to have the Zest’s
Starting Price for petrol base model that will be below 5 Lakhs to compete with
its rivals which means the Zest will certainly be value for money.
