Exterior Looks like a rich primium car of worth more than 9 lakhs.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Are so much smooth and excellent, so that anybody can handel by one fingre. With Zest, Tata has come a long way ahead when it comes to its interiors. Colour, quality, fit and finish are impressive. – We buy a car to travel comfortably and for that we need SPACE, which is lots in any Tata car and Zest has adequate storage space too for sub 4 meters (390 liters) Getting in and out is fairly easy even for 6 foot+ and seats are comfortable – here Zest blows its competition by large gap.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox are also good. Fule economy in this range.
Ride Quality & Handling Like makkhann"" Smooth and enjoyable. I must say that handling is particularly very good and Zest feels very easy to drive.
Final Words "' It is nice gift to the Indian consumers at that price from Tata Motors.
Areas of improvement Engine cooling should be more effective, so that it may give better comfert.

Exterior Excellent,look beautitull. Indian. looks very attractive. my is sky grey.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Well addressed. safety is one of the reasons to go for it and feels good. could have improved a little bit..(bottle hoalder). i am 6 feet tall and get a good leg room at rear sit.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Petrol- nice pick up, tend too feel turbo lag at low RPM but the moment it rises you feel it very responsive. nice feel to drive. fuel economy started with 8.. now on eco mode is 12-14 in city and highways 14-15 max at times touch low to 11. but still expect to rise. done with fist servicing. eco is bit sluggish but it ok not much of a concern for me. sports mode will make you go wroommm.
Ride Quality & Handling Good, very light and responsive. it feel in control.
Final Words Over all nice car and loving it.. will keep it for long!!!
Areas of improvement Fuel economy is to be looked on and bottle holder a must.

Exterior Are facny, gives compact and intact look with quality finishing.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Fantastic, you have all the comforts,features & space required which you want to extract from a car of this range.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Using ZESt since April 2016. Engine performance is very good but sometime it gives the feeling that engine should have had little more power specially when you are driving in 3rd gear and above. Fuel economy is perfect. On highway in ECO mode one can extract the mielage upto 19 KM per ltr or even sometimes more. In city one can obtain the mielage about 14 KM per ltr comfortably in normal traffic. Gearbox is smooth but little harse when you are changing it to reverse gear.
Ride Quality & Handling Soothing, comfortable and fantastic. You will feel the worth of it especially if you go for long drive.
Final Words It can compete with any vehicle of her class/Segment and will definitely stand ahead at final destination.

Exterior Very nice, with projector headlam front view is very atractive. Tata has done really good with the design.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Really speacias, even the boot space is quite good. it's comfortable to drive. Some more pockets or small racks in the front cabin would have been little better.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Running smoothly, noise free inside.
Ride Quality & Handling Superb handling, very comfortable in the high ways and hill stations as well, only thing to keep in mind is to slowly release the clutch.
Final Words I am fully satisfied with the purchase. Have got free 1 year insurance and received enough support from the dealer side at the time of purchase. Will recommend to all my family and friends.
Areas of improvement Tata service and customer relationship to be improved. Got a call from Tata that I will receive a free cleaning of the entire vehicle. And I have registed to that. However I haven't recieved and confirmation about that so far. They don't have good co-ordination with service centers.

Exterior
The vehicle styling and dmiensions give the feel of SUV. You can easily identify your vehicle in the parking lot. It gives a bluffy look with the front grill and back style
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
THe ineterior compare to other brands is really catchy. Adjustable seat gives you a comfort of long drive without getting tired
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Running smooth, completed one year, only shifting in 2nd gear is bit uncomfortable
Dont see much effect between the CITY and ECO mode but the booster works for torque
Ride Quality & Handling
A very comfortable for long rides. I have driven almost for 12~16 hrs continuos. Its fun to drive with best quality harman music system
Final Words
Areas of improvement
TATA really needs to work to have better service network/staff & infrastructure at dealers. Dealers like Miles Motors the only dealer they are least bothered about the service.

Went on a long drive to Goa recently 😝 with me Zest XMS petrol..thot i'd share some reviews...
Exterior Brilliant looks, just LOVE the Projector lamps..life saving..good looks even from the back..has a good ground clearance compared to other vehicles in the segment.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Soft-huge seats, very spaciuos at the back..powerfull AC.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Powerfull engine..especially the TURBO..gearbox was slightly noisey initially but is getting smoother with more usage..fuel economy is decent for city at around 13-16.
Ride Quality & Handling Good handling especially at tight corners, and also at high speeds. braking is good..just love the clutch..those that have driven the old Indica will know what I mean!!
Final Words Initially had a Indica XETA (Petrol) so the ZEST is definetly a much more refined and advanced car when compared.
Areas of improvement Will have to wait n watch with respect to the servicing provided by Tata. The first servicing was just a quick top up of all the liquids and cleaning of the car.
Brilliant design, spacious interiors, powerful turbo petrol engineFew noises(thuds) when we go through pot holes, should have had height adjustable seat belts as wellExterior/Styles

Exterior The car is feature loaded, with high performance and superb looks.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I found that there was rear was very spacious, good in cabin noise isolation, Excellent music system.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Best in class. I compared it with swift desire and excent. Iniially I was hesitating and planning to take polo since both are priced at the same range. After I took a test drive of this and the new VW polo, I removed VW polo from my list (main cause was the rear seat comfort).
Ride Quality & Handling Clutch is very light, Again this was compared to polo. you get a sense of stability while driving in high speeds. No body roll at all. Could not test the corner stability as there was no proper roads in chennai to test it.
Final Words Simply the best. Hatsof to TATA. I made my booking soon after my test drive was done. i never took time to change my decision. According to me this car was the best car in the segment.(Compring it with Swift Dzire, Chevorelete Sail , Hyundai Xcent, Vw Polo, Hyundai i20 elite, Maruthi Swift).
People have a wrong openion about the TATA cars for their make, customer service, After sales service. I believe that tata has taken a huge leap to make a great come back to the market.
Final Words.: Have a test drive to beileve it. Its no longer old tata car.Its a new game changer for TATA.
Areas of improvement Rear defigger was provided ony in top end variant. hope they make it standard in all varitants like how ABS is standard in all models ( except the initial base variant).

Exterior
Would probably be the best exterior among its rivals. It is really a masculine car with tough body, good height and nicely designed cuts and curves. Seeing it, you will definitely feel it like a perfectly shaped man. Beautiful LED tail light, that you will find only in luxury cars. Alloy wheels add cherry to the icecream.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
This is where the car stood far ahead of its rivals. Fully loaded with features. Starting with the excellent infotainment system powered by Harman. Very nice sound quality with 4 tweeters and 4 speakers. Bluetooth music and phone connectivity support that will definitely help you in receiving your calls while driving cars. Audio and phone controls on steering makes your drive an ease. Steering is light and small. Believe me you will feel very easy while taking sharp turns. Cabin space is very good. Plastics quality is premium with dual tone. Boot space is enough for your weekends.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
Zest is powered by 1200 cc engine that give 90 bhp power. You will love to drive the car. Especially the multidrive feature is really you feel when you change the driving mode. Kudos to the zest team for great innovation. Not pretty sure with the economy. I have recently purchased the car and currently it is giving 8Km/l.
Ride Quality & Handling
Ride quality is superb. You will not feel tired even after driving fro 3-4 continuous hours. Sterring handling is superb. Everything you need is appropriately placed in the car.
Final Words
Definitely a car that will bring Tata back in the race. A must buy car if you are looking for a 'value for money' car.
Areas of improvement
Should provide rear defogger in XMS model.
Excellent driving, Fully loaded with features, Good Cabin space, Multi drive featureYet to find, Little bit problem in inserting the key(that not too big :))
