Most Helpful Review

Good budget car

Low-budget car for middle-class families. Good price, good mileage, and a nice look. A value-for-money car. The specifications are also good.

Mini BMW

Buying experience is good, staff cooperates and is polite Driving experience is just amazing like bmw, audi Looks like some Italian car, performance is great as it comes with turbocharged engine. Servicing and Maintenance won't attack on your wallet. Only Cons is it's mileage.

Best in its segment

Great overall the experience of driving it for the first time was insane, had smooth go, I'd say best amongst its competitors..

Tata Zest Long Term Report II

By Ninad Ambre30 Jun 2015

You never know when it’s going to rain especially when it comes to the Mumbai monsoons and you don’t stand a chance when the downpour begins. It was about that time of the year again and after the horrendous summer, I was elated having the Zest to save me from the first rains. As the showers tried to cool down the baked crust in vain, I was happily weaving through the city traffic in the compact sedan from my home in a Mumbai suburb to the new Bombay, ohhh, Navi Mumbai!
