Horrible sedan from TATA

Exterior

 good. that is the reason of sale of zest but beware dont go by looks.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 ok.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox.

we bought Zest XM Petrol from Berkley, Chandigarh and were promised mileage of 16.50 km/ltr. However, it is actually coming at 12-12.5 km/ltr. One day car battery stopped working and immediately i had to rush to service statation at Berkley chandigarh. They took 2 hours to investigate that some wire is loose. It got memded but my precious time was lost.

It has horrible gearbox... it stuck in between and sometimes it come from 3rd to neutral on its own. Due to this my car has to remain in service center for 3 days. They do not have expert technicians at service center and we are left with no other choice than to leave the car at service center as they say technician will come from TATA and they will check.

Now my car is back from service station but gear consol has been badly re-fixed/fitted, causing gaps. Sometimes, car engine stops when in neutral and sometimes i can hear throbbing sound of engine. However, to my disappointment, service station people could not hear the same.

Ride Quality & Handling

Full of tension. I never expected this from TATA. I thought TATA is in vehicle manufacturing since long and when they had decided about launnching premium sedan, they might have been serious. But, sorry to say i was totally wrong. It is the worst car TATA have made. Horrible. Total waste of money. Heartbreaking.

Final Words

 NEVER NEVER NEVER EVER BUY TATA CARS.

Areas of improvement  

 EVERYWHERE.
