Tata Nano GenX User Reviews

Exterior The exterior is very stylish,I bought purple color for my father.The car is loaded with features and fornt fog lights.Body colored bumpers and ORVM's and the best part this car has a boot space now which is sufficient enough as compared to a NANO.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors is very pleasant with beige and grey.The DIS carries engine temp. monitoring and distance to empty which is very helpful and also the average.The car has front power windows and a bluetooth music system,central locking WooooW!!! with four speakers 2 in front and 2 on the rear parcel shelf.The seats are also having covers on them which are very good.Space is good inside the cabin for average height people but would be cramped for tall people obviously. The noise of the tyres while running is not pleasant inside the cabin as it is very irritable.The suspension is good even with  R12 tyres the potholes are not so much felt and the drive is comfortable and smooth.The car has a nicely done console in the front with a 12V socket.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is same as the earlier NANO but yes they have improved a lot as the drag during start is not so visible and picks up nicely.The gears are not so smooth though and at the sametime the first gear is a bit tough to put.The car lacks 5th gear as it seems like a drag in 4th after a speed of 60+.FE cant say as got the car yesterday only (20.09.15).The PS is very smooth as it has a EPS and was much required and will be very helpful in this small car to manouver in NCR traffic.The gear shifting is satisfactory but at times hard putting the 1st.

Ride Quality & Handling The ride is not so bumpy it is smooth but the noise of the wheels inside the cabin is very irritable.The handeling is very good with the PS but at the sametime one has to be careful as this being a tall car the centre of gravity is also high and therefore, the possibility of getting unstable is more at curves or ll of a sudden. But I guess a person needs to get used to this handeling but cautious at the sametime.

Final Words The car is a perfect value for money with sooo many features with being affordable and convinient and also great for manouvering in heavy traffic areas.The interiors are very nicely done.The exteriors are very smart with body colored ORVM's and bumpers.Power is good but there is a urge for 5th gear although the AMT offers 5gears but not the MT.

Areas of improvement The outside noise and speacially the wheels noise is heard in the cabin very prominently.The seats can be more comfortable interms of the rigidity.

Exterior

One close look all it takes to fall in love with this litle beauty, its appears like an electric compact europian car from the behind and the grille finish adds icing to the cake. Fog lamps are very powerful and one can notice the car coming from a good distance. I own a Sangria red and I am sure a it attracts a lot of attention in a traffic signal (especially when I sqeeze through the left-over lane while other 1.2 litre avreage run-of-the-mills drivers are gaping with envious eye and struggling to move forward.  

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

TATA has done a fab work with the interiors, the baize contoured look and matte upholstrey adds further value for the money spend. Signature TATA steering wheel is very comfortable to hold and steer. I am a lazy driver and I love to rest my right ankle in the open window panel and still hold the steering while my other hand rests on the gear-shift and still can manage to have complete control over the car. So, 100 out of 100 here, folks. The Music system comes with bluetooth connectivity which can be easily paired with any android device, and its intuitive enough. The program starts the next song from even the CD player exactly where you left it last time and parked the vehicle. good music output - note it. Crystal clear bass and treblle, FM tuner can be a little pain at times, but who cares (the FM guys play less music these days and more of ads). Boot space is a namesake thing - it doesnt really adds much value being so small. But you can put ur regular car junkies there and may a few small bags. 

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

I must say I have had issue to get accoustomed with a 0.6 litre engine and a 4-speed-gearbox initially, coming from a 1.2 Litre background. But it does its bit, this engine is much refined from the earlier model and produces more torque - one can notice the difference in a traffic signal - it just zoomes ahead (till the other SUVs show-up ;-). Gearbox is a little harsh at times, but one can aviod it by well-lubricating the console from the service centre. Fuel economy is average for a small car and 18/19 kmpl in the city is what you should expect. 

 

Ride Quality & Handling

Poor shock absorbers, this is one big opportunity area and this car can be a pain in bumpy roads. If you stick to the city, I bet you will be the fastest Indian (in own segment) under any  traffic condition because the steering and gear response is awesone.  

 

Final Words

 Complete value for money. I have used it in both city and highways (Pune to Lonavala via Mum-Pune E-way) and dont have any complaint. I have clocked 100 kmph speed and apart from the tyre noise there was no stability issue and performance issue. 

Areas of improvement  

 Shock Absorbers 

Tyre noise 

 

superb Air conditioning system, powerful AmphiSTREAM music system, smallest turning radiusNoise of tyre

Well I got this car in 2014 Nano twist xt it's first power steering version. The buying experience was quite good Got it after a week after the full payment. The driving experience I would give a 3/5. The car has many cons than pros but the major pros is it's size and cabin space. Powered with 625 cc engine it's just a city car not made for high ways unless you're an expert driver. Because of its size it's easy to manoeuvre in the city. Zippy less parking space and compact. But with 4 people on board strugglea on strap road,if u loose the momentum it's also impossible to pick up the car with 4 people unless two get down and let the weight off. The car has a ac which is good when car is stationary. The engine looses it's power if u turn it on on first speed even in 1st gear. The pick up is gone and it becomes noisy like anything which is heard even though back engine location. Looks : A happy smiliy face which is charming. It's tall boy design as said is quite good. But it's a con on speedy turning and highway. The rear of the car misses a storage compartment opening. And the rear look is very similar to tata Indica. It misses a hood in front so judgment is the key while driving. All though the front shield gives a good view thanks to it's huge size. The single wiper is clear cost-cutting. No door lining Small Insects get in the car easily even when parked and fully locked. Antenna gives a decent look. Back tail lamps are quite impressive, especially at night. Small tyres in front gives it a toy car look. And battery below the driver's seat is literally a ticking time bomb (God forbid) Performance is according to engine capacity. You have to understand it's a good substitute for a small family of four who travels on the bike. I guess that was the main idea behind it. It's perfect for it. It has very limited boot space. Storage is a big issue thus. But the interior is very spacious. With 180mm group clearance it's quite easy on speed breakers and potholes which we have in abadunce here. The music system is decent with Bluetooth connectivity which is quite good. It gets a CD player too. Service and maintenance: Regular AMC will help. It's around 3300 bucks for 2 years. Pros And Cons: Pros: Good design. Good average while driving in the city also. 17+ per kmpl. Spacious interior. Power Steering is great to help. Power Windows r decent. Good ground clearance. Good view. Easy to park thanks to small size and power steering. Turning radius is decent. Clutch is not very hard. Comes with heater. The music system is decent. Cons: Low powered engine, struggles on steep road and ac on. Engine is very noisy and shaky. Ac working is below par. Small tyres. Braking is not effective. Tyres skid a lot. Lack of storage space. Seat belt is very tacky and uncomfortable. Cluth height is too high. Long drives are uncomfortable and tiring. Tallboy design acts tricky on fast turning and high way road grip. Overall a good buy for the price and good city car.

Exterior Like a toy car but quite effective for city drive and crowded roads.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Enough cabin spacend leg rooms at front and rear seat for 5 people. You can put a small bag under the front seat.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Effective pickup, best for city with 15-16 KMPL in city and 21-22 on highways. Gearbox is not so smooth and little noisy.

Ride Quality & Handling I love to drive my car even on highways, its comfortable. Turning radius is amazing, you can make a U-turn without any second thought even on single road. Superb music systems with latest features like BT connectivity for calls and streaming. AC in effective and serves the purpose. Steering is powerful and smooth. Seating is high and comfortable like SUV with excellent ground clearance.

Final words My family loves our car and enjoy the ride every time with comfort. Engine noise and vibration, boot lid opener should be internal or remote.

Cabin space, Effective AC, Music System, Smooth power steering, Fuel economy, Turning radius.Engine noise and vibration, less boot space, only 2 power window, boot opening with key only

Exterior GenX nano really looks cute with smiley grill.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is good (with respect to cost), specious comfortable than Alto.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is quit small just solve the purpose, fuel economy is good, i have XT version equipped with 4 speed gear box. gearbox is smooth, no issues with gears.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality and handling is really nice upto 80 KMPH but above that you have compromise with the things😇.

Final Words Practical car for 3 occupant with good mileage and stability. recently i have covered 680 KM, Wardha to Pune in a single day without any heating issue😎, you will get tired but not car. And please dont expect 5+ lac cars features like ABS, airbags and bla bla bla in Nano Genx. Mileage in city in 19-20KMPL and 24+KMPL on highway with AC but note that above 90 KMPH she will results you 17KMPL also 😢. Just go through test ride to introspect your demand.

Areas of improvement Braking and horn should have to be improve😦.

Good mileage, powerful AC, specious, now good for highway alsoBraking and horn

Nano has become a very good car. That's give you every convenience in the price such as power strating, power window, music system with Bluetooth connectivity. Milage around 24 in city ride
