WHY TATA MANZA IS NOT REVIEWED BY EXPERTS

 

Exterior The exterior is good to look at. The paint and body works are good and sturdy. The headlights and fog lights at front and rear are very well placed to give proper illumination of the road in front and obstacls behind while parking.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Carpets and seat decor go well with the interior design. The locable vanity box and bottle / glass holders are well placed in front as well as at the back. The driver seat has height adjustment as well are steering alignment adjustment. Power windows and power steering add to comfort. The AC kicks in cool at a fast pace. CD player can belt out your choice music. Air Bags make the drive safe alongwith ABS and EBD.

The Boot space is real big and so is the space between the seats. With my seat (driver) fully pushed back the rear passengers have no complaint. My daughter says the rear seat is wide enought to sleep off on a long drive.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine response to the accelerater padel is super. The Manze just take off. The fuel economy is very Good - Diesel giving 16 K/l in city driving is very good. The gear ratios are well dispersed. And there is more saving as the Qudrajet does not recommend any costly Super Diesel or any other additive - they just want regular plain diesel. 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride is very good and comfortable. Handling in traffic situation is smooth. Even the turning radius is good for big car like Manza.

Final Words When I was considering to change my Opel Corsa I was considering besides Ford, Hyundai and Maruti diesel cars the TATA Manza also. The price factor was eveluated and reviews read, althought there were not many reviews on TATA Manza since it was  home made desi car. But, this Manza beats every other car in any which way you compare it. However, I would like Tata to start a 'Contact the Owner' system as their dealers cause a lot of avoidable bitterness. The dealer in quertion was Autolink of New Delhi.

Areas of improvement The Car as such does not require any improvement except a Rear Glass wash and wipe. Delhi is full of Dust and that sticks - need to wash it off.

A VERY REFINED CAR. GOOD FUEL ECONOMY, GOOD INTERIOR STYLE AND GOOD ROAD HANDLING.A REAR WIPER SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROVIDED.
