Tata Motors is all set to roll out its new Indica Vista in August 2008. When Tata’s launched the Indica in 1998, it was the first totally Indian Built Passenger car & there was a mad rush to own the diesel compact. Since then its been ruling the Indian roads and has been Tata’s brand builder. The Indica no’s were quite strong in the taxi segment. This to a certain extent hit the overall sales for Tata’s as the Indica slowly got stereotyped. Now, they have come out with a more futuristic version -the Tata Indica Vista, built on the Tata’s all new passenger car platform.
We were quite excited to have its first look at the Auto Expo held in Delhi. The first radical change on the looks are its swept back headlamp cluster. This would really catch everyone’s attention with its wide eyes kind of look. Even the tail has been smartly worked on with giving it a sleek & smoother finish. The bumpers give a wide look & the honeycomb grill adds to the overall appeal.
The interiors, is what stuns every one. Tata’s have quite done their home work & have understood the Indian market finally to give the inside space some class. The main change we would notice is the instrument cluster panel which is centrally mounted. Seats have been improved a lot with good thigh support, 60:40 option & a decent amount of space to have your family travel in comfort. Their dealer support tie up with Fiat will also build their brand image.
Thought Tata’s have their own 1.4 Turbo diesel, this car may sport the new 1.2 Liter petrol & 1.3 Liter CRDi from the Fiat stable and should be a treat to drive. This 1.3 engine is the similar one used in the popular Swift & Dezire variants. Some of the engine options in this new Vista would be as below.
1. 1172cc Petrol Safire
Maximum Power: 65bhp
Maximum Torque: 96Nm
2. 1248cc Quadrajet Diesel (CRDi)
Maximum Power: 75bhp
Maximum Torque: 190Nm
3. 1405cc Turbo Diesel Injection (TDi)
Maximum Power: 71bhp
Maximum Torque: 135Nm
