Truth and Only Truth. Best VFM Sedan.

Introduction: What is the first impression that comes into your mind when you think of Tata cars? Most would say a taxi. But one look at the Manza and all those impressions will be out of the window. Instead you start to think of Style, Luxury and the word BIG comes to your mind - especially when you have a look at the boot.  The Vista, the Nano and now the Manza have shown how Tata has matured over the years. Result of about 50 lakh KM of testing between the Vista and the Manza. Quality, finish and refinement are far superior to any other Tata product to date, even the Vista. The Manza is assembled alongside the Linea. The quality of paint and parts are hence similar to the more expensive Linea and of very good quality.

 

Exterior and Design: The Manza has a very elegant poise. The clean lines, steep Windscreen angle and loads of chrome all around add to its character. On the top end model, you have chrome above the Radiator Grill, on the Bumpers, on the side moldings, the door handles and even above the back number plate. The squared rear makes it look much larger then it actually is. The longish three-barreled headlight is inspired from the Vista but not completely taken off it. The famous Indica radiator smile now has more straight lines and looks kind of like an inverted trapezium. Like the Indica, the side indicators are neatly placed just below the OVRMs. The shoulder line on the car is also more pronounced. The 15” wheels look good and fill up the Wheel Arches nicely. The large wheelbase coupled with the 15” wheels give the Manza good handling manners. The Manza is 4413 mm long. Width and Height is also more than its rivals with 1703mm and 1550mm for the Manza. Ground clearance is about 165mm and the bottom never scraped the surface anytime during the 120 odd kilometers that I had the car with me. Wheelbase is also the largest at 2520mm.
