Tough MPV with real tough handling....!

 

Exterior Only the Exterior looks good, the wheel caps, the lighs and the body shape. NEXT FULL BODY ACE.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Accept the Driver & Co-Drivers Seat rest seating in this MPV is good.... A/C vents are perfect. How ever the way the images are shown on the web-site with the glass holder or magazine/book holder all this is not available even in the top model. The Driver seat and Co-drivers seat is not having any extra space from the door, it feels as if you are forced to get adjusted in that seat with great discomfort. the console makes you feelas if you are driving a BUS or a TATA TRUCK.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine though it is less noisy but I feel TATA was knowing that if they provided a heavy engine which is really needed for this MPV they would have not found any way to make it silent. Overall a brand new MPV which is kept for a Test Drive, obviously giving no reason for TATA or the SALES EXECUTIVE to say that its a DEMO car and thats why the GEAR SHIFTING is so tough. Put on the A/C and I bet you will never be satisfied driving this MPV upward on a slope. U will have to use the 1st GEAR even for 30 degree upward slope. Please try to drive it at 20 KMPH, A/C - ON, starting point a 30 degree upward slope.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Power Steering is good, suspension very good, handling is TOUGH only because of the gear worst gear box.

 

Final Words It is a heavy MPV on a silly POOR ENGINE. It atleast needs a 1.6+ engine to handle every thing as per Indian road conditions.

 

Areas of improvement Powerful Engine, Good gear-box, Driver and Co-Driver seat to be more comfortable. Should have some more space between the seat and the doors.

 

Exterior OnlyDriver and Co-Driver Seats very uncomfortable
