Exterior
I am totally amazed at how Tata Zest have been designed and yes when it’s on road people does check it out. Back lit Tail LED , Front engine bonnet and high ground clearance make it look very impressive. Most of the guys don’t believe at first, Zest being a Tata Brand. :)
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
While Driving I get two ways to adjust myself by adjusting Length and height of the seat. The seats are really comfortable as Tata has signified the presence of shoulder hugging seats and yes it does make the interior look nice. About back seats you get enough leg space to be at your comfort. With Airbags ,Safety is ensured but I would have preferred side airbags also. Dashboard comprises of Infotainment which has call reject/accept feature which I find it very useful while driving accepting a call while driving and the controls are on steering wheel. Sound system is nice. Cabin as whole is very pretty and comfortable.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
With three engine mode you have the ability to pace at your own way. I have driven City and sprts mode and yes it makes a huge difference when you drive in sports mode. You get power while pickup. I felt the boost while driving in sports mode and in city/Eco its normal and they are all about fuel efficiency.
Ride Quality & Handling
I would attribute my ride quality as very smooth due to high ground clearance .One can run over bumps how high it might be. Even with bumpy roads you feel very less shake inside the cabin.
Final Words
Overall verdict is Excellent . I liked the car very much myself driving , styling, comfort and best part was sports mode. I would definitely recommend to my friends who either loves fuel economy or power.
