Tata Zest User Reviews

Exterior : Excellent designing, aero dynamic, sturdy. Stands out from the commonly seen cars. Alloy wheels adds beauty to the car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) : Excellent again, Spacious, comfortable seats, Harman infotainment is awesome, played some old Illayaraja songs during our drive to Yercaud, entire family enjoyed the music output.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox : Smooth gears and good engine response make the drive enjoyable. I get around 20 KMPL in long drives and 16 in city. 

Ride Quality & Handling: Smooth driving, car is sturdy enough to make the drive smoother at 110 speed, you don’t even feel you are above 100 speed

Final Words The best car in compact sedan category, value for money, you can buy it without a second thought.

Areas of improvement The show room staff should be trained to be confident, they have the best product and need to flaunt it. Other car makers flaunt every bit of it, for example ABS, you will find them mentioned in the rear of the car, we don’t notice in TATA CARS even though they are feature rich. Advertising a bit on the car itself will boost sales.

Execellent Design, Spacious, Fuel Economy etcNone

Superb vehicle. Purchased at the release month i.e 6 years back in December month and now 3 lakh kms old.But milage engine performance remains excellent and till now engine is noiseless.

Exterior Best in class styling, front side is aggresively spaced, boot space is placed very neatly to look it like a complete sub sedan car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior space is best is extremely good: 5 persons can comfortably travel for very long distances, and seats are very comfortable.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is refined and tuned, performance is great, TATA have put exteme efforts to put noise insulation to almost nill. Engine is peppier and very responsive. noise is nigligible as compared to other diesel cars in same category.

Fuel efficiency, cabin and boot space, ride qualityNothing

Engine is evergreen And mileage is superb It looks like a classic car Performance is very good I like its mileage and engine performance And it is more space between 2 rows How long we drive it can't decrease its mileage Its colour variants look shine And air conditioning is excellent And also it has more ground clearance than other cars

Exterior

 it just looks awesomemine is white cloor xms varient anf looks quite a looker .front facia looks impressive with projector head lamps and chrome details at fog lamps.i can see people peering over for a clear ;ook and thats when you know you are driving one really good looking car.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 its satisfactory and feels luxurious with piano finish center console and beige interiors.at the priced i paid ,i can say i got a product well beyond that measure.sound system is good and cabin feels spacious and airy with loads of headroom and legroom.5 members can travel in comfort.i was initially thouht of not having a cetnter armrest as a negetive but later i realised that it can make the middle passenger uncomfortable with stiff back and may be thats why tatas omitted it and now thats ok on practical grounds..

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 engine fells smooth at speeds of 140 and no noise penetrates the cabin.steering feed back is good and feels planted giving confidence to speed further.iam getting 22 on highways and 19 in city driving.gear shifs are smooth cluth is light and feels like driving a petrol car.i hav driven many makes like swift and fiesta.but none has given me this satisfaction.sometimes i feel that blind spot is more particularly steep overs.

Ride Quality & Handling

ride quality is good and even after driving continously 700 kms i felt no fatique or backacahe and the drive was without fuss engaging myself with good music.

Final Words

 i feel happy that i chose a car that could serve for years without giving me headaches and gives pleasure of driving and luxury.

Areas of improvement  

 some clubby holes here and ther and a lamp inside biit ,a folding or split for back seat

 

   milage,looks and comfortno split seats for second rpw and small detais like water bottle holders etc

Exterior

Exterior design is really good and makes people turn around and look at the car. The projector head lamps, honey comb grill, chrome lining on the doors, led tail lamps and 18 spoke alloy wheels add premium look to the zest. Overall it is a very good design

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

Front seats with rugby shoulder design is very comfortable. XMS model comes with height adjustable driver seat and air bags. The rear seats is spacious and three people could be accomodated easily and it has good knee room as well as head room. The dual tone dash board design and speedometer dial gives you a feel of a european spec car. The music system is good with 8 speakers. I havent tried the connect next system with mobile yet

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 The 1.3 MJET 89 BHP diesel engine is well tuned to drive in the traffic with minimum gear changes. The drive by wire technology gives good throttle response. The Mid range repsone of the engine is also good though i have not tested at higher rev band of the engine. The AC is effective and good. Gear changes are good though not the very best . I have done only few hundred kms and got an 15 - 16 kmpl in the city with AC On

Ride Quality & Handling

The ride is very good and plush and soaks all the pot holes in the road. The engine noise and road noise is very minimal with all the windows closed.The small steering is easy to hold and maneuver and gives you enough feedback. The 15 inch wheels make good grip with the road and it is stable

Final Words

 Tata zest is good value for money car given its fresh exterior styling, good interior space, good ride/handling and performance compared with the Competition with likes of maruti, honda and hyundai. The mid spec XMS diesel is well equipped with 9Th GEN ABS, Ally wheels, air bags, good connect next and music system for which one have spend an aditional 80,000 to 95,000 INR with same sepcs in the competiton. The quality / fit and finish has also seen a very big imporvement in the Tata Zest.

Overall I would recommend to go for the Tata Zest

Exterior Very nice and bold outlook design in this segment comparing to other brand companies

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very nice music system of harman with eight speakers, switch controls on steering wheel, space management is done quite efficiently.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performance is very good, also the car pick up is excellent.

Ride Quality & Handling My personal opinion about this car is...till date the car had run about 18000 plus km (purchased in December 2014). I have done two times car services by now and no technical problems in maintenance. I have just tried speeding to check how the car behaves at 160 km/hr speed on pune solapur highway and to my surprise the car was very steady and firm on road. Wheel stearing and gear shifting is very smooth, so personally I feel ride quality is quite satisfying to me.

Final Words A good value for money in this segment car.

Areas of improvement Should improve on fuel economy, needs bottle holders & Sun glasses holder and improvement in wind screen wipers & water sprinklers timing.

Nice bold looks, steering and gear shifting very smooth, comfortable seats, nice harman music systemshould have bottle holders and sun glasses holder

The company has taken a step in the right direction with the Zest, which not only looks attractive but among the best styled compact sedans available in India today

Exterior Look is too good and lights give you premium look 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Dashboard and console is very luxurious and you will feel that you are sitting in car like Audi.

The infotainment system developed by Harman is a flush fitting unit with some unique features that definitely set the Zest apart from everything else in the segment

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Performance is good , but mileage can be bit better(nt yet checked completely).

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is too smooth, We have good ground clearance and bootspace as well.

Final Words Finally, an impressive product from Tata with best-in-class features, space and comfort, But overall its value for money, if one wants premium car with lower cost ,has to go for ZEST. No need of second opinion , Go with ZEST.

Areas of improvement Mileage and front look can be improved, so that from fron it doesnt resemble tata old car.

Audio ,Good Driving ComfortNA
