टाटा नैनो जेनएक्स यूज़र रिव्यूज़

I want to buy Tata Nano GenX XMA.I like that car very much. Small car, Fullfill all requirements. Kindly relaunch the same for middle class people.

This car is value for money and very compact. This car's service and maintenance is very easy. Easy to drive. No parking space problem. This car tall boy design is very good. Nano is small family car

Exterior The exterior is very stylish,I bought purple color for my father.The car is loaded with features and fornt fog lights.Body colored bumpers and ORVM's and the best part this car has a boot space now which is sufficient enough as compared to a NANO.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors is very pleasant with beige and grey.The DIS carries engine temp. monitoring and distance to empty which is very helpful and also the average.The car has front power windows and a bluetooth music system,central locking WooooW!!! with four speakers 2 in front and 2 on the rear parcel shelf.The seats are also having covers on them which are very good.Space is good inside the cabin for average height people but would be cramped for tall people obviously. The noise of the tyres while running is not pleasant inside the cabin as it is very irritable.The suspension is good even with  R12 tyres the potholes are not so much felt and the drive is comfortable and smooth.The car has a nicely done console in the front with a 12V socket.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is same as the earlier NANO but yes they have improved a lot as the drag during start is not so visible and picks up nicely.The gears are not so smooth though and at the sametime the first gear is a bit tough to put.The car lacks 5th gear as it seems like a drag in 4th after a speed of 60+.FE cant say as got the car yesterday only (20.09.15).The PS is very smooth as it has a EPS and was much required and will be very helpful in this small car to manouver in NCR traffic.The gear shifting is satisfactory but at times hard putting the 1st.

Ride Quality & Handling The ride is not so bumpy it is smooth but the noise of the wheels inside the cabin is very irritable.The handeling is very good with the PS but at the sametime one has to be careful as this being a tall car the centre of gravity is also high and therefore, the possibility of getting unstable is more at curves or ll of a sudden. But I guess a person needs to get used to this handeling but cautious at the sametime.

Final Words The car is a perfect value for money with sooo many features with being affordable and convinient and also great for manouvering in heavy traffic areas.The interiors are very nicely done.The exteriors are very smart with body colored ORVM's and bumpers.Power is good but there is a urge for 5th gear although the AMT offers 5gears but not the MT.

Areas of improvement The outside noise and speacially the wheels noise is heard in the cabin very prominently.The seats can be more comfortable interms of the rigidity.

Good style,power steering,DIS,power,nice interiors,bluetooth music system,power windows,boot spaceSeats could have been more comfortable and tyres noise inside cabin

1. Very good buying experience from owner 2. Easy handling and good ride quality 3. The looks are very futuristic and very good performance and milage is 18.05km 4. Still not got serviced 5. Pros - comfort and good ride and handaling quality And Cons - very much engine noise while starting the car only ......

Exterior

- Beats all cars in this category (<4 L) hands down - Looks are just awesome

- A Head turner, especially the dark colors - You can notice people talking about the "practicality" of owning this small wonder

- Classy European compact car looks with the grill & curves

- I got a Sun Roof done from the showroom - adds to style, and allows my kid to search for the moon while I am concentrating on the road

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

- Very spacious for a car of this category

- Rear passengers too have ample leg room

- Hatch allows you to pack in 4 backpacks or 1 to 2 cabin bags

- Finish is good, Tata is showing signs of "rub off" of it's global brands now

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

- Engine is low powered (Honestly, who cares!, given the stop & go traffic in Bangalore??, I have seend people in 2.5 Ltr cars struggle to park them, take them out of the parallel park lots, while I am already 1 km away after getting out of the squeezed place)

- I have driven it for about 600 Kms in the last 30 days - That is the love you fall into with AMT. Given it is still warly days, Fuel Efficiency is not something to comment on. Although, I get a feel that AMT will land you somewhere in the 18+ Range.

- This car is for the practical, take it easy type fellow - not for the 4000 RPMer, who talks and breathes Bhp or Torque. Please note, that this car is an easy goer - even when you floor it, it will take its own sweet time to "calculate the down shift". So - you need to get used to it - press the pedal, half way on the speed breaker, and by the time the rear wheel is off, the car is ready to respond. A Lag of about 1.5-2 seconds for that shooting speed needed. Those used to an always on "turbo" will be left high n dry.

- Brakes - All Drum. I feel rear discs should have been provided, given it's rear load. Brakes give you th eold "maruti 800" feeling and you are always keeping a safe distance. Something not to worry  - given that this is primarily a city car. If you want to highway throttle it, It is at your own risk.

- Gearbox: Top gear is 5th, that engages past 65/70. For an uphill start, it is recommended to use hand brakes, since the car is on a underpowered engine.

- Auto Creep Feature: Best part for stop n go traffic of Any Metro city. Leave the brake, and the car begins to roll - no need to alternate between accelerator & brake.

- Enging cooling radiator comes to the front grill - Thus oveheating issues have been taken care of now.

Ride Quality & Handling

- Ride Quality : Smooth, well balanced, small - so - speed bumps feel a bit too short.

- Handling: Can take a U turn whilst other car drivers are still planning their U turns :) - and off you go!

- There is a "sport" mode, that basically does a gear shift @ about 10-15% higher RPMs, i dont use it.

Final Words

- Practical city car, has to be your ideal second car.

- Not for the Highways

- Highly recommended for those who live life "easy" - This car will give you that feel - just chill - Live and let live.

- We compared this to Alto AMT, E2O - This one beats them all hands down especially for the price to value conscious fellow.

- For the record, my other car is a Vista Qaudrajet. [ It is odd numbered too :) ]

Areas of improvement  

- Disc Brakes

- Plastic moulds, especially door opening knobs, and dash glove box - need to be more soft, sturdy & easy to operate

- Driver seat height adjustement, Although this is limited due to battery sitting below it.

- Seats are a bit upright, Bucket chairs would have been good - Although for short city rides, seats are ok.

Turning Radius, High Vantage Point, Maneuverability, Ground ClearanceSeats are rigid, Plastic moulds need more meat

Exterior

One close look all it takes to fall in love with this litle beauty, its appears like an electric compact europian car from the behind and the grille finish adds icing to the cake. Fog lamps are very powerful and one can notice the car coming from a good distance. I own a Sangria red and I am sure a it attracts a lot of attention in a traffic signal (especially when I sqeeze through the left-over lane while other 1.2 litre avreage run-of-the-mills drivers are gaping with envious eye and struggling to move forward.  

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

TATA has done a fab work with the interiors, the baize contoured look and matte upholstrey adds further value for the money spend. Signature TATA steering wheel is very comfortable to hold and steer. I am a lazy driver and I love to rest my right ankle in the open window panel and still hold the steering while my other hand rests on the gear-shift and still can manage to have complete control over the car. So, 100 out of 100 here, folks. The Music system comes with bluetooth connectivity which can be easily paired with any android device, and its intuitive enough. The program starts the next song from even the CD player exactly where you left it last time and parked the vehicle. good music output - note it. Crystal clear bass and treblle, FM tuner can be a little pain at times, but who cares (the FM guys play less music these days and more of ads). Boot space is a namesake thing - it doesnt really adds much value being so small. But you can put ur regular car junkies there and may a few small bags. 

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

I must say I have had issue to get accoustomed with a 0.6 litre engine and a 4-speed-gearbox initially, coming from a 1.2 Litre background. But it does its bit, this engine is much refined from the earlier model and produces more torque - one can notice the difference in a traffic signal - it just zoomes ahead (till the other SUVs show-up ;-). Gearbox is a little harsh at times, but one can aviod it by well-lubricating the console from the service centre. Fuel economy is average for a small car and 18/19 kmpl in the city is what you should expect. 

 

Ride Quality & Handling

Poor shock absorbers, this is one big opportunity area and this car can be a pain in bumpy roads. If you stick to the city, I bet you will be the fastest Indian (in own segment) under any  traffic condition because the steering and gear response is awesone.  

 

Final Words

 Complete value for money. I have used it in both city and highways (Pune to Lonavala via Mum-Pune E-way) and dont have any complaint. I have clocked 100 kmph speed and apart from the tyre noise there was no stability issue and performance issue. 

Areas of improvement  

 Shock Absorbers

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Well I got this car in 2014 Nano twist xt it's first power steering version. The buying experience was quite good Got it after a week after the full payment. The driving experience I would give a 3/5. The car has many cons than pros but the major pros is it's size and cabin space. Powered with 625 cc engine it's just a city car not made for high ways unless you're an expert driver. Because of its size it's easy to manoeuvre in the city. Zippy less parking space and compact. But with 4 people on board strugglea on strap road,if u loose the momentum it's also impossible to pick up the car with 4 people unless two get down and let the weight off. The car has a ac which is good when car is stationary. The engine looses it's power if u turn it on on first speed even in 1st gear. The pick up is gone and it becomes noisy like anything which is heard even though back engine location. Looks : A happy smiliy face which is charming. It's tall boy design as said is quite good. But it's a con on speedy turning and highway. The rear of the car misses a storage compartment opening. And the rear look is very similar to tata Indica. It misses a hood in front so judgment is the key while driving. All though the front shield gives a good view thanks to it's huge size. The single wiper is clear cost-cutting. No door lining Small Insects get in the car easily even when parked and fully locked. Antenna gives a decent look. Back tail lamps are quite impressive, especially at night. Small tyres in front gives it a toy car look. And battery below the driver's seat is literally a ticking time bomb (God forbid) Performance is according to engine capacity. You have to understand it's a good substitute for a small family of four who travels on the bike. I guess that was the main idea behind it. It's perfect for it. It has very limited boot space. Storage is a big issue thus. But the interior is very spacious. With 180mm group clearance it's quite easy on speed breakers and potholes which we have in abadunce here. The music system is decent with Bluetooth connectivity which is quite good. It gets a CD player too. Service and maintenance: Regular AMC will help. It's around 3300 bucks for 2 years. Pros And Cons: Pros: Good design. Good average while driving in the city also. 17+ per kmpl. Spacious interior. Power Steering is great to help. Power Windows r decent. Good ground clearance. Good view. Easy to park thanks to small size and power steering. Turning radius is decent. Clutch is not very hard. Comes with heater. The music system is decent. Cons: Low powered engine, struggles on steep road and ac on. Engine is very noisy and shaky. Ac working is below par. Small tyres. Braking is not effective. Tyres skid a lot. Lack of storage space. Seat belt is very tacky and uncomfortable. Cluth height is too high. Long drives are uncomfortable and tiring. Tallboy design acts tricky on fast turning and high way road grip. Overall a good buy for the price and good city car.

I am a differently abled having disability in legs, small alteration is done on break and accltr. Driving very easily, very comfortable car, economy. I satisfied. White colour looking so beauty.
