Tata Manza [2011-2015] User Reviews

Exterior Excellent!

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) OK still needs some improvement.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent!

Ride Quality & Handling Handling is Excellent. This car seems big in size but while handling on the road, it is very comfortable in heavy taffic as well as on High Ways. Ride quality is also very good.

Final Words G8 Space, G8 features. You name it and it is there. All sorts of saftey warning and alarm, Bluetooth, Music system with CD, Control on steering wheel.  All in all, Its a very balanced car with loads of space inside, loads of features, decent styling, excellent engine to power the beast, big boot, high stance. Happy with the overall performance of the car that gives you feeling and comfort of luxury sedan Excellent VFM Car. Thanks - TATA for an excellent car with best pricing - good competetion rather, fight with similar sedan versions !

Areas of improvement Needs improvement on interior Plastic quality,  hardness of seats & IF Tata can improve their dealers and service stations will be more excellent.

Exterior Ok.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Don't know because at the KM of 2400 of new car I face three time break fail problem.

Ride Quality & Handling Break fail 3 times in two months.

Final Words Worst experience of my life. I face three time break fail problem in two months . I purchase the car on 9.07.2010 and up to 3.09.2010 I face three times break fail problem. I was assured in first two time that problem has been resolved but when it was repeated on third time , I simplly denie to take the same and demanding for refund of my money. I was not expected this type of service from TATA. God save me three time but I dont want to take chance for forth. I am surprised that how TATA (Renowned Organisation) can forget their social commitment and took risk of human life. After reapting request and not caring to me, ultimately I am going for consumer court for compensation.

Areas of improvement Break system. It may be the reason of death at any time in this car.

Exterior I have purchased Dew White model in mid Aug 10, has got a rich look, the rear view should have been made much better.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) In this price rage, i would say spacing and features in that car are excellent, except for the electrical fittings like the switches needs to improve a lot. Also, the plastic quality does not give the rich feeling.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox I have driven 1500 Km and have finished the first service. With this experience i would say this car i well suited for city drive, u need not have to down the gear even if ur going at 35 to 40 km speed u can drive it in 5th gear itself. The pick up is average, a gradual accelaration. You wont feel that lack of pickup, if you are a smooth driving person, who likes to go at 60-70 Km average speed. Once in that range of speed it tends to just fly smoothly. The fuel economy with A/c gives a milege of 14km/ltr. without A/c in a semi city drive has given me 15-16 km/ltr. Hopefully it would improve after few service.

Ride Quality & Handling This I have covered above. Few more things, while I went and saw the car I had the impression that bcos of its size it would be difficult the drive in the city traffic. But, to my surprise I have never felt so after taking the first ride, I was able to zip thru the traffic. Also, since the car can go at 40km speed even in the fifth gear, never we have to frequently change the gear, eventhough it will gradually speed up from 40km. If u need a faster pick up then u need to down the gear.

Final Words This car attacts the attention of every one, with its looks and size. It gives lot of space for the passenger.

Areas of improvement I had bought the car from RF Motors, Kochi. To my surprise, unlike told by others that RF does not deliver things on time, I got my car with in the specified time and also they gave freebies too and the dealing was up to the mark. I had a excellent sales coordinator named Ms Deepa, she handled things very well.

With respect to problems in the car, that is with in the span of 45 days. The indicative lights of the power window on the driver side blinks and goes off. Also, the combination switch witch has the head light and side indicator controls showed some problem. While swithing on the head light, some times it does not glow also the panel lights would go off. Then after turning in few times it glows up. Ths quality of the electical fittings are not up to the mark. These problems need to be soarted out.

Exterior Well exterior is good looking but not beautiful.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Tooooooo much space  loaded with all the features, comfortable ride, refined pick up and power delevery, large steering wheel. takes care of all the bumps and bad roads with ease. hydraulic steering is a bit hard esp if u have driven a elctronic motor driven car before. but u get used to it in no time. engine performance is good not meant for a speed enthu person but for a nice genle cruze. gear box bit hard gives me 11-12 in city driving and16-18 on highway.

Final words Final words Will be was very afraid to go for this car but now very much happy for my decision u see it is class apart from the usual hatch backs and almost combarable to c segment cars its indian so not much costly afterservice built like a tank and i feel very much safe while driving. so if some body has a budget of 5.5 to 6 lacs and comfort and safety u r looking for with a decent ride quality and saftey features go for this car u see mera bharat mahan

Exterior Good styling,  excellent road presence, big and stable looking.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Spacious - space comparable to cars 2 level above, comfortable seats, very good interior (bought the vehicle in Feb 2011 after the new dual tone interiors introduced) - in fact dash board and interiors are having a premium look and feel. 

When we took the vehicle to a car shoppe for mats and seat covers the very next day after taking it from show room, there was a new swift desire came for some after market fitments and its owner was telling his friend that this new Manza interior looks beautiful and better.  He came again to me to make sure that I have not done any modification to the interiors.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Excellent engine - so silent and smooth that it does not seem like a diesel. Gear box is smooth. Its too early to talk about fuel economy still the initial indication after a few hundred kms is really impressive.

Ride Quality & Handling Excellent ride quality. Taking potholes and bad roads with ease. And handling - surprisingly good handling for a Tata Car.

Final Words Its really a very good car (only affected by perception due to bad condition of heavily used and abused old generation Indica and Indigo cars which are lacking build quality).

Areas of improvement Training - lots and lots of training - for the show room staff Yet to encounter the service guys and after sales support team - so no comments about that.

Exterior Real good looking Car. Can give challenge to Suzuki, Honda, Etios levels with looks, features.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Real Spacious Car, with tons of features. Would take time to learn all functions.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Good pickup. Just 6 days, Petrol version giving 10.6 kml. Believe post service would adjust in range of 12-13 kml.

Final Words A real feel good Car. Buy with caution, to suffer at hands of poor dealership.

Areas of improvement In case Tata can train dealer team or change them with better ethical team.

Exterior Great looks, so neat.. especially the front with the headlamps are just superb.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good comfort, the A/c is very good, back seating is very comfortable for 3 adults with lots of leg space.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox My top speed was 165 between vijawayad to chennai roads.. only the engine noise is too high, gear box is good can feel the change of gear so you do miss out to slip the gear.

Ride Quality & Handling Just good.. can turn  in curves without skidding even at high speed, body roll is good.

Final Words I had used it as a ambulace to bring my bedridden mother who was on oxygen support to transport from chennai to Hyderabad in 13 hrs time.. I had folded the back seat, put a matters and made my mother lie down vertically, with legs into the boot, comfortabky kept the  two oxygen clyinder at the space near the back seat, here was hardly any jurk for her.and it was just comfortable better than an ambulance (force vehilce) which was very bumpy and shaking. I am a proud owner clocked in 6000 kms so far. a very good sedan worth for the money.. But the service stations are not up to the mark.. TATA needs to improve a lot in their TASC.

Areas of improvement Better visibility for the rear when parking.. can hardly see from the drivers seat while parking.. the interior plastic can be better, and can.  Can reduce the engine noise.

Exterior are good but plastics and fibers which has used in the mirrors,windshield are toooo bad.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good features with out quality all electric iteams which has been used all china metirials.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Till now its good but its too early to judge.

Ride Quality & Handling Good.

Final Words I request Tata motors, when it comes to the indian tata cars they use very low quality of things like break pads,cables,plastic iteams,rubber,finishing etc one thing our Bharath Rathna Rathan Tata has to remember heis an india.

Areas of improvement Servicing, as I said above plastics to finishing,its more important to show the quality than a quantity.

NOTE- All middle class people in india likes to by swadeshi car which is available as TATA Motors, When i alaways drive my car i feel proud that its mera India and Its mera Indian Car

Exterior Good Exterior, Attarctive, Shower.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Space and comfort are excellent, but at the same plastic fittings in my vehicle are loose.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine per formane is good. like peckup is just like petrol car, Fuel Ecnomy is good, I found 16.5 Kmpl (with constant and rash drive) in AC on condition.

Ride Quality & Handling I found dificulty in Ride quality as my vehicle is pulling left and I done wheel alignment two time with the Dealer BASUDEV AUTO Ltd. Hazaribagh, But they can not fix it. And in many other reviews I found that So many persons Found that problem in there New Manza, and the TATA Sevice centre do the alignment with JUGAAD technology.

Final Words No Doubt Tata Manaza is Good Choice but be Careful at the time of Delivery. As I am cheated with Basudev Autos, Hazaribagh. they did not Handover Audio Remote to me and told me that the remote is with the Elan Model. Please check the whole vehicle before taking Delivery as they will not hear you after they get it sold.

Areas of improvement Customer Care, Service Center, and Delivery Policy.
