Excellent vehicle and surpasses expectations.

Exterior

 Pleasant, comparatively narrower external width this easy to manoeuver in tight situations.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Despite narrow body externally, internally this car has unbelievable seat width and of course rear passenger leg room is phenomenal for this price segment. Blue tooth enabled audio and hands free communication with cell or wifi USB. Steering column controls for top end as good as the best available in the market.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Dezire and Manza engines are the same though tuned differently and with different gear ratio and differential ratios. The car is really agile for its size of the engine. Easily gives 14~15 kmph in city like Pune and on highway goes beyond 23~25 km/l with constant speeds on level roads between 80 to 120 kmph at more or less constant speed otherwise Pune-Mumbai round trip including city heavy traffic gioves total average between 16.5 to 17.5 km/l. Gear box is good. Gear shift is easy. Heavy traffic entails greater gear shifts in diesel version.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Excellent riding comfort, unmatched for fatigue free ride on long distance for the driver and for the passengers unquestionable comfort.

Final Words

 I was ridiculed for going opting for a TATA vehicle as I have been a Maruti customer all through, but long wait for DEzire turned me for this alternative and believe me, this was the best choice as it turned out, much better than the Dezire option.

Areas of improvement  

Safety belts should be heifght adjustable. Barring this nothing that needs to great changes.

 

Excellent fuel economy, good pick up, top suspension wont tire you on long drive.Safety belts should be height adjustable. Other than this really nothing goes against the car.
