Stunning looks, ride quality, engine performance, good fuel economy, and best infotainment system,So far not find any thing.

Exterior Superly styled exterior, projector headlamps led tail lights, day time running leds, solid built,sporty looks, perhaps the est looking car in its class that is the su 4 meter segment. alloy wheels standard.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Oodles of space the hall mark of any tata car no need to mentio that. interiors very well detailed, finished no cost cutting cheap plastic, body hugging soft seats. Super air conditioning.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Mine is an XMA semi automatic, again first in its class a diesel automatic , the gearbox is a it slow after a long cold start but after a few minutes gears change effortlessly, drive is very easy and non tiring. 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality again is excellent , drivers position is high giving a clear view, good solid suspension neither too soft nor too stiff, the 16 inch alloys iron out the road very diligently.

Final Words Dont think definitely a must buy.

Areas of improvement Pickup is not as good as other petrol car, not even as my Manza diesel, Car horn is not easily accessible, need light in boot area.

good style and looksbad pickup

Exterior I am totally amazed at how Tata Zest have been designed and yes when it’s on road people does check it out.  Back lit Tail LED, Front engine bonnet and high ground clearance make it look  very impressive. Most of the guys don’t believe at first, Zest being a Tata Brand. :) 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) While Driving I get two ways to adjust myself by adjusting Length and height of the seat. The seats are really comfortable as Tata has signified the presence of shoulder hugging seats and yes it does make the interior look nice. About back seats you get enough leg space to be at your comfort. With Airbags ,Safety is ensured but I would have preferred side airbags also.  Dashboard comprises of Infotainment which has call reject/accept feature which I find it very useful while driving accepting a call while driving and the controls are on steering wheel. Sound system is nice. Cabin as whole is very pretty and comfortable.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox With three engine mode you have the ability to pace at your own way. I have driven City and sprts mode and yes it makes a huge difference when you drive in sports mode. You get power while pickup. I felt the boost while driving in sports mode and in city/Eco its normal and they are all about fuel efficiency.

Ride Quality & Handling I would attribute my ride quality as very smooth due to high ground clearance .One can run over bumps how high it might be. Even with bumpy roads you feel very less shake inside the cabin.

Final Words Overall verdict is Excellent . I liked the car very much myself driving , styling, comfort and best part was sports mode. I would definitely recommend to my friends who either loves fuel economy or power.

Areas of improvement Clutch changing could have been more smooth. Engine compartment coverage from mud.

Good fuel economy, Good styleLooks, Comfort, Driving, Space, Ground Clearance

Exterior

Exteriors are a refreshing change. Projector headlamps function well at night. Alloys give a luxury touch. Black colored bottom of the rear bumper helps to avoid unnecessary scratches in traffic. Ground Clearance is great and can be used as an all terrain car. Remote control central locking key is provided. Key also contains switch for Follow me Head lamps. Boot is spacious with 390ltrs. Can accomodate 1 full size and 2 mid size bags easily. Overall seems great from outside.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Front Display has 3 modes, where 1st is normal, 2nd shows trip A and 3rd Trip B. It also shows the instant Fuel Efficieny and Avg. Fuel Efficiency. Music system is superb, output is great. 4 speakers and 4 tweeters have been installed in doors. Bluetooth connectivity is good. Once paired, it automatically detects and connects the phone. Steering mounted controls are a big help for people like me who have to attend a lot of calls. The ORVMs can be adjusted electronically and easy to use. Charging socket is also provided along side USB and Aux port. AC is very effective and cools the cabin in a short span of time. Car is spacious with ample room in rear. Tilt steering is also an added advantage. Cabin storage space is a big disadvantage. Other than a cup holder, which is also not too deep, there is no other place to keep your wallet, mobile phone, fuel slips, change etc. A small space is given below the handbrake, which isn't that adequate. A storage tray is provided below front passenger seat. Glove box is decent sized. Space given in doors is also very narrow. Got an armrest installed for storage purpose and comfort.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Fiat 90ps Engine is responsive. You can snail in traffic even in 3rd gear with speed around 20km/hr. Have driven 1000kms so far so can't comment on fuel efficiency but the digital indicator has been showing 17km/l for quite some time now. Gearbox is slick and doesn't get stuck. Though when you increase the speed, one can feel slight jerk in gear pushing it backwards as if inertia is acting on it. Otherwise its fun to drive. 

Ride Quality & Handling

Ride quality is decent. Suspension is not that smooth over potholes and bad roads but does a decent job. I drove Linea before Zest, so lack of smooth ride quality can be felt. Handling is great. Clutch is quite soft for a diesel engine. Steering is also responsive, light and can be operated with just one hand.  

Final Words

Its big move from Tata with Zest. Refreshing interiors and exteriors, comfortable ride add to the pleasure of driving this car. Can be considered as a good alternative to Amaze, which I didn't find that Amaze-ing. With Zest, Tata deserves another chance in this segment. 

Areas of improvement  

Cabin storage space needs to be seriously looked at. Armrests in doors could have been used to add some space. Also I will suggest not to buy car from Autovikas, Moti Nagar, Delhi. They have made false commitments at every stage of service delivery. Also for smalleset of issues, such as fixing number plate, they take an hour's time. Sales team is highly casual and doesn't bother how customer is feeling. Once you book the care, they don't give attention to you.

 

Power output, comfortable seats, music systemCabin storage space

Exterior Exterior does look good projector headlights and led taillights does make it shine. sidelines on body looks sporty, alloy wheel looks nice, sporty character on bonet.  

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior does make you feel special , best interior in all cars of the segment, you will surely love the infotainment system. white illumination and clear instrument cluster view. also a gear shift indicator on cluster. Noise isolation is also very good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performs accordingly well in each of the driving mode, you will surely feel difference in each modes, on a highway trip i got a mileage of 18kmpl on petrol xm variant driving mostly on eco mode and cruising at speed of 100kmph however in city driving on peak traffic hours returns me a mileage of 10-12 however first service of my car isnt done yet so economy may rise afterwards, gear clutch works like charm, in city driving in eco mode would be pain, so mostly try city mode or sports for great pickups. AC and Heater are powerful enough to cool or heat entire cabin in few minutes.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality and handling is good have tested driving on roads with gravel and wet roads cabin insulation is also much better than others cars of the segment. ABS also gives u a confidence in braking.

Final Words You wont get a package like this anywhere else in this price. you wont regret buying it.

Areas of improvement Front side pillars does block view when taking turns it should be taken care off. Rest all glides well for me.

Interior design, space, nice dashboard, best in class music experience, drive modesThick front windscreen pillars makes you bit blind on some curve

The company has taken a step in the right direction with the Zest, which not only looks attractive but among the best styled compact sedans available in India today

Exterior Look is too good and lights give you premium look 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Dashboard and console is very luxurious and you will feel that you are sitting in car like Audi.

The infotainment system developed by Harman is a flush fitting unit with some unique features that definitely set the Zest apart from everything else in the segment

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Performance is good , but mileage can be bit better(nt yet checked completely).

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is too smooth, We have good ground clearance and bootspace as well.

Final Words Finally, an impressive product from Tata with best-in-class features, space and comfort, But overall its value for money, if one wants premium car with lower cost ,has to go for ZEST. No need of second opinion , Go with ZEST.

Areas of improvement Mileage and front look can be improved, so that from fron it doesnt resemble tata old car.

Audio ,Good Driving ComfortNA
