i bought IndigoCS - LS 3 months back and is almost 3000 km run in 3 months. So i can summarize my experiences about the car here.
This is my first car - so in a way no previous comparison, i was skeptical to buy a diesel engine but candidly petrol price, didn't allow me to buy a petrol vehicle.
After 3 months, i think i have taken a good decision. As you get a sedan in price of a hatchback, the biggest advantage of indigocs is SPACE as compared to any other hatchback. this is one of the reason i didnt' go for swift as well, swift definitely looks more sleek but it is overpriced i think.
indigocs looks good, especially that small boot is sexy.
interiors though are not that elegant - but i knew i am buying indigo and not honda city - so interiors are just ok.
mileage in the city i am getting 16 and haven't got the chance to go to highway. will be going to jammu(native) place from chandigarh(where i live now) in the month end. will let you know about the long drive good/bad things then.
over all a great value of money car - it gives you a chance of own a sedan as your first car, which i had not even thought of before.
I am facing one problem as well with the vehicle that the boot seems to be not fitting that well. everyday in office security persons need to open the boot for checking and there are quite a few occasions when they are not able to close it even after 4-5 tries.
i am gonna get it checked on weekend - will update.
Hi All - Dec-2 and i am back after a 750 kms long drive in 3 days.
Well a first long drive in first car is indeed exciting. The mileage was 20! yes it gave 20 coz being the first time on highway i was in the range of 75-85. It was really smooth as i have traveled long distances in many maruti cars but this was quite smooth.
Also got chance to ride with 5 persons and there you feel like there is some less power but over all journey was good.
Now a few words of advice - from experience.. check the car properly inside out..
till now i have faced following issues - though all corrected - and i here i would like to contradict with all the reviews about tata service that they are not good. I always had a great treatment - they were available on sundays.
1. the boot - as written above not getting closed properly.. though had to go a different service center - but is fixed.
2. The break light -was too sensitive that even when you rest your feet on break pedal or when u leave it slowly it used to be on.. got that corrected as well.
if you want a good spacious and most important - economical car, then this is the car!
drive safely!stylish, economical and spaciousnot so elegant interiors
