टाटा ज़ेस्ट यूज़र रिव्यूज़

Servicing and maintenance is better and all cars Buying experience is good Driving experience is extremely smooth Details about looks, performance is also mind blowing Pros and Cons is very good.

I like this Car It's a best in low price. It's engine is nearly about 1200cc. And you got a comfort in this car. Diesel mileage is best than petrol.

Exterior Well, it needs no elaboration as even a person who hasn't driven the zest himself will vouch for its cute styling & looks, must say it is a stunner in its segment.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Absolutely No doubt about it and i have no qualms in mentioning that it is indeed a feature rich car. Tata Designers, Developers & Engineers have spared no efforts to incorporate every little conceivable safety, & infotainment feature in the car. Be it  Air Bags, ABS, Rear parking sensor, Rear Defogger, Day Time Running Lights, Distance to empty, Avg Fuel consumption etc. And to top the charts, the icing on the cake is a very high end  Harmaan Audio System. I purchased my zest xt in January 2015 and I have come to know that the present zest models in the market are even offering navigation and video play back feature also. The car is very comfortable on long rides, suspension is pretty decent provided you don't deliberately jump the car over large Pot-holes. Engine Noise inside the cabin is almost negligible, considering its a diesel engine. Gear shift is very smooth and no vibration in the gear stick. I don't know what R&D Tata has done with the Steering but after driving Zest when  you drive any other car with power steering, you will definately feel that you are driving a vehicle sans the power steering. In short, Power Steering in Zest is super smooth & light and feels equally sturdy on Highways at high speeds. You don't feel fatigued after travelling long distance due to the high driving position & comfortable seats. A sore point is Tata failed to provide sufficient storage spaces & bottle holders inside.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good & very refined, considering its the tried & tested Fiat 1.3 Quadrajet engine. Power delivery is good as the engine is tuned to 90 PS. It depends upon an individual's driving style, so if someone is in the habit of pressing on the gas in the second gear then he might feel a lil disappointed as the real power kicks in the 3rd and 4th gear when the Turbo surges in. Over taking is no problem and you get the desired  power to race ahead when needed on the highway. In city driving (Delhi & Gurgaon)I'm getting a mileage of 14 kmpl with AC and on the Highway I've managed 18 Kmpl with AC and you would be pleasantly surprised when you will see your zest returning impressive figures of 17-18 kmpl while driving in hills. One really nice feature in the car is the Avg. fuel consumption meter and believe me its not off the mark. I have noticed that by calculating the mileage by completely filling the fuel tank and then filling it again, the figures i got were almost comparable with the figures displayed by the avg fuel meter. Gear shift is very smooth as mentioned above.   

Ride Quality & Handling Ride Quality & handling is superb. 

Final Words Considering the parking woes in NCR I planned to buy a compact sedan in the sub 4 meter category and Zest completely fitted the bill and has not disappointed me at all. If you are in the process of buying a sedan then my advise would be to go for zest as no point in buying a Verna or Honda City for that matter. You will end up shelling out a few lacs more for less inner space, a marginal powerful engine and hyped up brands.  

Areas of improvement More Storage space should be provided inside the car.

Cute Looks , Decent space & Reasonable Fuel EconomyLack of Bottle Holders etc

The car in itself is a comfort zone, all the things are rider friendly, be it ground clearance, soft steering, etc. I am already experiencing the comfort of this car. It is absolutely a winner, but unfortunately, Tata discontinued it, this is the only drawback or worst part of this car. So this is really highly recommended car.

Exterior Looks awsome if i see the car from behind from a considerable distance its LED tail lamps gives look of mercedes!!!

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interiors quality and feel of interiors is comparable to a european car.it is loded with features.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Slight turbo lag below 2K rpm but its a overall problem of multijet engine.but as it reaches 2K rpm it picks it up very well.

Ride Quality & Handling NVH levels are awsome,best in segment.belive me there were many instances where i was confused is engine on or off. very spacious and very comfartable ride.

Final Words If anyone looking for a compact sedan it is my sincere request to them to buy zest without any doubt of build quality or after sales service or anything like that.TATA has improved a lot.i have done lots of research.there cannot be a better deal than ZEST in compact sedan segment unless someone wants to go by brand name of honda or maruti suzuki.brand image of tat will also improve in coming year

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

Exterior : roofline ending at C-pillar gives coupe style look. one of the best looking compact sedan. Projector head lamps gives better looks to car. LED guide rings & DRLs(daytime running lights) makes your car stand apart from the crowd. Exterior shut lines are something which you are going to admire. 8-spokes alloy wheels are sexy.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Harman-kardon infotainment system is undoubtedly the best of any car in India. Touch screen is seriously very awesome; Phone connectivity is great ,it provides you handfree features and voice-command-recongnisation feature whch lets you play music track of your choce, change radio station ,control AC, make phone call.

Car is spacious and independent McPherson strut suspension makes very good comfort ride. you don't feel any side roll while turning.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: engine is trusted sourced from fiat quadrajet more powerful than swift dzire, hyundai xcent. There is no turbo-lag felt due to the awesome technology VGT.

fuel economy: 17-18(city); 21-22(highway)

gearbox is smooth.

 

Ride Quality & Handling: awesome ride quality. This car is very demanding, it will ask you to take risk :) go fast coz of it's good powerful engine and good ride quality.It has got corner stability control  which gives you confidence while cornering. You never feel out of power. I have not driven to it's extreme limit but it easily hits 145 kmph very quick but i'm sure it can hit above 165 kmph very easily.

brakes: ABS & EBD features ensures you safer drive. 

 

Final Words : if you are looking to buy a new car then you can give a try for an Indian car. Good car, worth purchasing. It won't disappoint you. 

 

Areas of improvement  : Please provide the inbuilt GPS.

Why is this beautiful car not in black color as well as black alloy wheel.

Experience: i am having very good ecperience with this car. You don't feel any noise inside the cabin. 

 

 

powerful engine with VGT, feature loaded, good fuel economy.as such now, none

Exterior Good exterior with nice detail lines on side. additional detailing like drl's, chrono rings, LED tail lamps all look par with competitors. built quality is really strong.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is the best thing in the car. nicely done dual tone dashboard with features like touch sceen infotainment and reverse sensors, controls on steering, speed sensing audio system and EPAS steering wheel.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is great as once the turbo kicks in you will enjoy its boost. fuel economy-- giving me 21-22 kmpl on highways and 17-18 kmpl in city. gearbox is nice and smooth.

Ride Quality & Handling As always the ride quality is top notch. rear passenger will love the comfort at back seats. handling is superb as the EPAS steering wheel provide you more confidence on steep turns as well as during high speeds.

Final Words Great car to own. definitely better than rest of its competitors. just in case of xcent as xcent supports more features but it has better engine and better lighting and better everything.

Areas of improvement Committment, sales and service otherwise no issue, no offense.
