    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    Exterior Does not have a great look but you can overlook the exteriors as it fits in a budget.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Decent for a budget car - has AC, front power windows, central locking, pretty spacious for a 6 footer.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Durability: Major parts like clutch, AC condensor assembly already failed in less than 5 year/40K usage. Warranty covers for 4 years. Both failure happened in the 5th year and had to shell out about 10K each for each of the parts. Durability of the car becomes a question mark.

    Mileage: Gives about 10-12km in city condition with AC which is pathetic considering it's 624cc engine and entry level hach back.

    Ride Quality & Handling Shock absorbers are horrible, feels like you are running on a horse. Response from TATA Motors was that you cannot expect comfort of Indica in a Nano! Agree but you expect Nano to give comfort of a car atleast

    Final Words Limited number of Service Centers forces - the nearest service center Concorde Motors is 14 kms from my place. Concorde took 3 days to replace the AC assembly parts as they did not had the parts in stock. Service has deteriorated over the years and they can make you wait for an hour just to have someone attend to you

    Areas of improvement Look into the durability aspect of the car. Quality is completely compromised to accomodate the budget. It does not work in the long run. Improve your service center in terms of count and quality of service.
