Final Words I can recommend this (ZEST-XT-Petrol) to others.

Areas of improvement No suggestion.

look, mileage and comfortNot find

Exterior

 Would probably be the best exterior among its rivals. It is really a masculine car with tough body, good height and nicely designed cuts and curves. Seeing it, you will definitely feel it like a perfectly shaped man. Beautiful LED tail light, that you will find only in luxury cars. Alloy wheels add cherry to the icecream.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

This is where the car stood far ahead of its rivals. Fully loaded with features. Starting with the excellent infotainment system powered by Harman. Very nice sound quality with 4 tweeters and 4 speakers. Bluetooth music and phone connectivity support that will definitely help you in receiving your calls while driving cars. Audio and phone controls on steering makes your drive an ease. Steering is light and small. Believe me you will feel very easy while taking sharp turns. Cabin space is very good. Plastics quality is premium with dual tone. Boot space is enough for your weekends.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 Zest is powered by 1200 cc engine that give 90 bhp power. You will love to drive the car. Especially the multidrive feature is really you feel when you change the driving mode. Kudos to the zest team for great innovation. Not pretty sure with the economy. I have recently purchased the car and currently it is giving 8Km/l.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Ride quality is superb. You will not feel tired even after driving fro 3-4 continuous hours. Sterring handling is superb. Everything you need is appropriately placed in the car.

Final Words

 Definitely a car that will bring Tata back in the race. A must buy car if you are looking for a 'value for money' car.

Areas of improvement  

 Should provide rear defogger in XMS model.

 

Excellent driving, Fully loaded with features, Good Cabin space, Multi drive featureYet to find, Little bit problem in inserting the key(that not too big :))

Exterior Looks are not bad. The tail lamp goes really with the rear design. Front could have looked sharper. Orvms's don't fold though.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Best in class interiors. Cabin noise is minimum and mostly unnoticeable. Back support and under thigh support is optimal. A/C with climate control plus great audio system makes for a pleasurable experience.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is good. Fuel economy can be improved. My instrument display reads 9.1 kmpl. Gear box though smooth still feels a little clunky. The car feels slightly underpowered. Though this is made up for in the sports mode.  

Ride Quality & Handling This is the best aspect of the car. Ride quality and handling is unmatched. Goes over bumps and potholes smoothly.

Final Words The car is a massive upgrade from it's predecessor. A few things like gear stick and hand brake feel a bit inferior. My experience with the car so far has been good. After sales service has been quick and hassle free. I would suggest this car to anyone looking for a compact sedan.

Areas of improvement Fuel economy can be improved, orvm's don't fold, front design can be better.

Handling and ride quality, infotainment system, low maintenanceFuel economy

Exterior The Best looking Compact Sedan, VFM. Also the car comes with Body Kit from OEM Tata and looks awesome.

Boot Opener Could have been given in the Remote Key or atleast button shold have been given. Boot lid has to been opened from key only 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good Interiors with loaded features like Steering mounted Audio Controls, Multi Infotainment System with BT connectivity, USB, AUX, Electronic OVRM

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Decent Engine but at times there is a lag in Second gear at low RPMs.

Fuel Economy:

City: 14 - 15 kmpl

Highway: 18 with AC

Comes with ABS + EBD and CSC(Corner Stability Control) from second variant. Multi drive mode is the best. You can actually feel the response in Sport Mode. Eco is purely fr Mileage with very low pickup. City is the Mix both.

Ride Quality & Handling Decent Ride Quality, Shocks are a little stiff, Handling is swift and clean. 

Final Words The Best compact Sedan with fully loaded features for the best price available in market.

Areas of improvement Rear AC needs to be added. The compartments in the door needs to be wider to atleast fit a 1Litre bottle. Boot Lid to be opended from outside like any other door without Key when unlocked.

Compact Styling, Good Fuel Eco, Full Loaded, Spaciousear AC Could Have been added, Boot lid has to be opened with Key or popped from inside.

I have purchased new zest petrol XT in  February 2015.

Exterior is very good looking.

Interior is confortable & spacious.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy is good, and Gearbox working good with full clutch press.

Ride Quality & Handling is good, Harman music system fitted is impressive. good boot space for weekend. 

Rubber seal & Plastic parts fitted on windscreen front side is unmached there is visible gape, which could be improved. Mud is entering into engine compartment. Insufficient Space for holding bottel which is need to improve.

Poor responce after sales, I had to contact every time for menual book, bill & invoice, Extended warrenty booklet & covering document, Annual maintenance booklet (which is still not provided) & vehicle registration card. All the above documents & necessory informations should be provided by authority with responsibility.

Poor resale value if you go for exchange tata car. Careless & poor sales. Yet I don't know about the servicing department.

Don't go on fancy features. Decide carefully before purchase.

Good performance & smooth drive.Poor finishing & fittings in some areas.

Driving a automatic car is very very easy. The car looks very good except for the front grill it reminds me of indica(taxi) daylight looks gud and the tail lamp lights are great.would have loved a body coloured lower bumber.

The leg room is great and the interior has a great quality and finish. Would have been better if leather seats were availble. Infotainmnet is mind blowing with great sound effects, navigation from navimaps with four pro guidance purchases free, picture and video playback as well. Would have been best if reverse camera could be integrated into the infotainment system.

Engine works fine. Easy to handle and overtaking is hassel free. Mileage started to improve now 14 but car is purchased three weeks before so its good and it will improve. Easy to corner at high speeds. Speed increases at a good rate. Just a small lag when shifting from first to second.

Could have added a camera for reverse parking, body colour bumber, leather seats.

Style, Comport, Performance in HighwaysNeed to imporve service center engineers knowledge

Exterior Looks good. Day time running light may be little impressive, more colour variants needed. little look like indica vista.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Spacing good when compared to competitors. pleasing look. well designed. Features are excellent. Music system is good. AC operations are execellent. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Driving gives very nice experience. gear shifitng and other feature are good. fuel economy must be improved. Fuel economy is 17 on highways and 13 in city ride and is only in ECO mode. In city mode is much less. Presence of air bag, ABS improves the safety. 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride is comfortable. more controls in the steering wheel itself, voice sensors, musinc system are execelent. Electrical Steering wheel gives a comfortable drive. 

Final Words Bought this car six months before. Ha a great experience. I love it. This one the best car in this segment.

Areas of improvement Interior space me by utilized effectively. more colour variants should be there. fuel economy need attention. Leg room for driver sheet should be improved.

Cost worthy, comfort, Interior, space, dashboard, Music system, loaded with so many featuresInterior space not effectively utilised, fuel economy
