Tata Bolt User Reviews

Exterior Very Good. Body looks sturdy.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is very good. It is quite spacious and comfortable.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Eng perf  good, fuel economy fair and gearbox poor. Gear lever rattles when running. Authorised workshop say it is faun factoring drawback which they cannot rectify. They told me that tata motors have been told about it. They also say that this issue is with every Bolt car. Looks very strange. I have not faced any such issue with my other cars - Maruti, ford, etc.

Ride Quality & Handling Quite good.

Final Words Not a good buy wbe me. II was taken in by its looks and dealers' sweet talk. Car was purchased in Feb28.2015' through Autovikas, Dwarka NewDelhi. It was from among the first few Bolt cars manufactured. 

Areas of improvement Gear lever coupled with clutch lever needs thorough  examination. If possible this may be set right.

It is really very irritating. car's AC system also needs checking. The one in my car had stared malfunctioning in the initial period its elf and had to be opened for fixing.

Exterior BOLT looks attractive in Venetion Red color with black C-pillar, Chrome line on doors near windows, Rear spoiler, Body Lines on side doors

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Bolt looks mordern with JAVA BLACK interiors and scores very high on its feature list - Harman Music System with 8 speakers, Bluetooh connectivity, USB, Aux provisions.

Sterring feels good to hold and has very comfortable access to button for access to Music system & Phone Calls. 

All seats are spacious, Comfortable with appropriate under thigh support, legroom & Head room. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Multidrive options are a boon this Small car segment. Engine had very good Lowend & mid range performance (Torque from Turbocharger). 1.2 Litre MPFI engine performs desired durty very well but get noisy as revs build up(sometimes it sounds like Diesel engine).

Fuel Economy with mix of ECO, CITY & SPORT modes during 850kms drive in a week: City - 10.1 km/l and Highway - 14.1km/l.
- Highway Fuel economy in ECO mode was 15.6km/l which dropped down to 9.5km/l when switch to Sport mode for FUN DRIVE.
- The power & engine response in SPORT mode was amazing. Definately worth it! (It gave feeling of driving a much powerful car).

Tata has worked a lot for providing a smooth Gearbox. Scope for reducing Gear lever Vibrations. 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is fantastic, it absorbs most of the bumps comfortably & feels a lot more confident while taking corners and at high speeds. All 5 seats keep the passengers firm at their position during turns (thanks to Corner Stability Control).

Final Words Fantastic Value for Money car with loads for features.

Areas of improvement

1. Reduce gaps visible in Plastic parts.

2. Provide slot for keeping Bottle at Doors.

Exterior is Sturdy, Stylish, born under Tata family, resemblance with vista is NOT acceptable, addition of more 2-3 Colour with special graphic is my suggestion for its peppy look enhancement.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) All interiors are at par and of very good quality with ample space for even five heavy persons, In built Music Sound System quality is superb.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Robust, excellent and spaceously build up, power and pickup, slow crawling and cruzing speed is designed excellently with high practical experiences by tatas.

Ride Quality & Handling Very comfortable and with easily acceptable console functions during driving The Three Modes function gives reliability at various suitable condition, the safety features of ABS, CSC,EBD, Airbags gives trust worthy feeling during condition.

Final Words Excellent Sensible choice for long Driving durations with  trust worthy safety features.

Areas of improvement Not yet come across still more to talk later.

Hi Guys, I really don't want to disappoint anybody here, but if you have aplan of taking this car, pls stop and choose another one. I took new revotron and drove very less, during this two years I developed lot of patience of this crap car. But now I really lost. Worst vehicle I have ever seen, fumes from banet if you corss 120 Km/HR, poor milage- not even 10 in eco mode, daily problems with self start, poor road grip, break are like cycle breaks, waste ccar, not at all recommended, not worth even one Lakh. On top of this worst thing is poor steering performance, lights are good, main thing iss power windows and self starting problems associated with this. Sure not recommended, I am not sure about diesel one, but petrol one is real waste of money. even sporst model dies not has pick up like maruthi vehicle, waste, waste, waste vehicle.

Really not good! worst vehicle I have ever seen

Regards,

Vijay

There are many comments on Fuel average relating to Tata Bolt and so I thought to check myself and update:

After 2300 km of driving of Tata Bolt XM Petrol. I rechecked the fuel average by taking test drive of 12 km. The avearge in `eco mode' on  highway crossed 20 Km.

The initial average on highway was 17 km and now it has increased to 20 km.

Kind Regards

Exterior Very good finish and stylish look. The black liner on pillar is very stylish. Paint is of of very good quality and give rich feel.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The moment you enter the car, the black dash board and Interior finish makes you feel WOW !!!. The Herman music system has excellent features and good surround sound. The car is very  very spacious and three people can easily seat in back seat and can also have good leg room.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is very powerful. Gearbox moves smoothly and easy to handle but need to be moved  with precision in the slots. It took me a while to adjust. Fuel economy is lower than its competitor but not bad.

Ride Quality & Handling very smoothhhhhhh. One of the strongest feature is its Power stering which is very easy to handle and moves with just one fingure!

Final Words Good Value for Money. Tata seems to be coming out with better products. After Zest, Bolt too has lived upto customers expectation.

Areas of improvement None for now.
