Only milage issue I get 10 in city drive and 13 in highways The buying experience is very bad The driving experience is very good Servicing and maintenance is not so High The authorised service centre is bad there is no spare part available like spark plug.

I only know one thing and that's why I love this car is safety features and build quality. It's safe my family from collision at speed of 120. I am dam sure if I was driving other car .I had one it wouldn't be survive that collision

I have been driving Tata Zest XM model from june 2015. I bought ZEST from

Most of the reviews are fake here. Even some impressed me before I could decide to buy.

Firstly, I waited to for first free service  and then waited for 5000 kms to complete for getting exact Mileage. THis is what I am dying for these days. See, you think less cost and buy this ZEST then petrol cost, you would paid in next 2-3 years can impact your pocket. I don't know about diesel variant. 

Look and Style: Very modern look and style.

Comfort: Very comfortable and made for Indian roads.

Pickup: Can beat even BMW.

Mileage: Like Trucks, 8.6 to 8.9 litre/KM in city drive specially in Bangalore traffic for Petrol version. I don't go or drive on Highway everyday. I drive for office everyday.

Best Features: Multi Drive, its really cool feature.

Needs to improve: Mileage.

Overall Experience: If you don't talk about Mileage then best car to drive on Indian roads and a great suspension for rough roads. AC power is also good.

I drive my tata zest xm petrol from jhansi to delhi without taking rest and i got overall performance is good but i got only 12km/l fuel econmy so if anyone can efford 9km/l in city and 12km/l on highway than can buy otherwise diesel versions are batter than petrol

I want to say to tata motors that they have to do something else for fuel economy otherwise as usually tata to tata hi hai.

Tata has done great things to promote this car in bright light. It has done best work in designing interior and exterior and for driving comfort. By looking at exterior, It is difficult to judge that this is from Tata or from some other expensive brands. Ride & Handling are too class. 200-300 kms in a day can be driven without any discomfort. Seating is very comfortable. Back side seats are very wide and leg room is very large. Infotainment system is stylist in look and best in performance with JBL speaker. It can give you feeling of High end Luxury car. On mileage part too, Tata has done good work..I am getting mileage of 14-15 km/L in city mode in city and 20-22km/L in Eco mode on Highway. In customer service, Tata needs to improve a lot to compete with Honda and Hyundai. I faced some problems in after sales service. Finally they helped me to sort out problems. Other than this, Best car to buy in this budget. Best feature are there compare to Other cars at this cost. Above all, This is a Indian Car.

Exterior Exterior does look good projector headlights and led taillights does make it shine. sidelines on body looks sporty, alloy wheel looks nice, sporty character on bonet.  

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior does make you feel special , best interior in all cars of the segment, you will surely love the infotainment system. white illumination and clear instrument cluster view. also a gear shift indicator on cluster. Noise isolation is also very good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine performs accordingly well in each of the driving mode, you will surely feel difference in each modes, on a highway trip i got a mileage of 18kmpl on petrol xm variant driving mostly on eco mode and cruising at speed of 100kmph however in city driving on peak traffic hours returns me a mileage of 10-12 however first service of my car isnt done yet so economy may rise afterwards, gear clutch works like charm, in city driving in eco mode would be pain, so mostly try city mode or sports for great pickups. AC and Heater are powerful enough to cool or heat entire cabin in few minutes.

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality and handling is good have tested driving on roads with gravel and wet roads cabin insulation is also much better than others cars of the segment. ABS also gives u a confidence in braking.

Final Words You wont get a package like this anywhere else in this price. you wont regret buying it.

Areas of improvement Front side pillars does block view when taking turns it should be taken care off. Rest all glides well for me.

Interior design, space, nice dashboard, best in class music experience, drive modesThick front windscreen pillars makes you bit blind on some curve

Dear Friends - Good Day!!

Coming from a middle class family, the first thing comes to anybody's mind is "Value for Money". Zest is the answer for your quest for VFM.

I along with my friends went for test driving all the cars. Three of my friends are hardcore Maruti fans and have Swift, Ritz and Zen. The response from all on driving Zest is WOW. Having learned to drive car recently, even I was amazed with the response of Zest while test driving.

Let’s be realistic, who cares for your car more than you. So please check what you get for the hard earned money you spend on a car which is taken on loan.

For less than 5.5 Lakhs [excluding the registration, insurance, etc] in Chennai, I got all 4 power windows, harmen music system, steering wheel mounted music and phone control, projector head lamps, fully electronic ORVM,ABS, Alloy wheels. Check the price of any hatchback with these features in other brands, it will be more than 6.5 lakhs. I got a sedan with great boot space.

The interior space is amazing. For one short trip to beach, 6 adults and 3 kids travelled in my car. 4 adult can sit in the rear seat if they are lean. The seats are broad and comfortable. As usual in all TATA cars, legroom was never an issue in both front and back. For long trips, with all the luggage packed in the boot, it is only people in the car which is a great relief when you have elders who travel in the car.

On the exterior, TATA did a genuine work to bring a new classic look which is new to this segment. The projector head lamps looks sharp but not mean. My car is sky grey and has the executive look and you feel important when people turn their heads to get a second glance on the new model.

The dashboard covers all aspect of the car, for new drivers like me, the gear indicator is a boon, at the right speed, we are reminded to change gear. Since the car was easy to drive, I dared to drive to Bangalore along the Hosur route since it is mostly 4 way lane. I did not realize that I have touched 130kmph until I checked the speedometer. The car sailed so smoothly.

Honestly I was getting only 9 or 10 in the city and I got 13kmpl for the Bangalore trip and I was bit disappointed with the mileage. But friends assured me that car mileage will improve beyond 5000 km. But I could see difference after first service which I gave after driving 1700 Km. The big change in mileage came after crossing 4000 km. I went on a long trip down south up to Rameshwaram. Zest really swallows pot holes. The high ground clearance really helped in certain parts were the highway was under construction near puthukkothai district. Now city mileage is around 12km [promised 13km] and highway is around 17km [promised 17km] with AC always on.

Another amazing feature is the various modes of drive. Zest becomes three different cars in each mode. Eco mode – It becomes small car like alto wherein it will take quite some time to pick up. City mode is standard sedan style drive. The sports mode made me jump up in joy. Power is so visible and you feel that you are in a race car [I know it is exaggeratedJ]. What I am trying to say is that car brings more power and you can over take all those messy truck and bus drivers with ease in sports mode. Warning – do not use sport mode continuously then we you return to city mode, you may not like it.

To summarize, I am not getting paid to promote ZEST so I am not claiming it is THE BEST. But for the money invested, I got a wonderful package and this car brings smiles on my family face whenever we travel and is pocket friendly for me so what more you could ask for.

ZEST up your life.
