I have been driving the car from Jan 2016 and covered around 400 KM, It is excellent cat made by Tata, and i would regard it as exception to the cars earlier made by Tata.

It has smooth acceleration,Cushion shock absorbers and good ground clearance, easily can go over any bumper like an SUV without worrying the driver.

The best part is the flat torque of the car which enables you to go over a bump in third or fourth gear without having to change gears too often.

Turbo charged engine kicks in too fast and u feel u need to tame the car 90HP around corners.Never will the car make u tired and long journeys are a bliss.

Got 21KM mileage under ECO Mode with A/c on. CITY mode gives u around 14-15 if you are driving as per the recommended gear shift indicator which is highlighted in the driver information console next to the speedometer. Sport mode will fetch you over  10-11 under same driving recommendations.

If for the first 1000-1500 KM if you follow the user manual and driving recommendations, the car is bound to give u amazing mileage, comfort and zippy pick up.

Other new features the car has:-

1. Post first morning kick start, need to wait for 30 sec for turbo charger to kick in, this enables the car to give u zippy pick up.

2. Raditor Fan turns on post u switch the car so that u can go on ur way and the car cools it up before its next ride.

3.A/C does not hamper car 's pick up, its independent in operation without reducing the car's pick up.

4.Voice commands help in operation of A/C, Radio/Media,Phone

5.Have Bluetooth Connectivity and Navigation enabled in top end version.

 

Final Words

Zippy Car with good perfromance

 

Areas of improvement  

 Didnt find any right now, post first service will re-review the car again.First service at around 3500 KM or 3 months of purchase whichever earlier.
