      Exterior AVERAGE.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) AVERAGE

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox VERY BAD, NO FUEL ECONOMY, EVERY SCREW IS CAR LOOSE EVERYDAY.

      Ride Quality & Handling VERY BAD.

      Final Words NO VALUD FOR RESALE. TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. POWER STEERING VERY BAD. AVERAGE IS NOT GOOD

      Areas of improvement THE COMPANY SHOULD SHUT THEIR CAR PLANT IMMEDIATELY. PERFORMANCE IS VERY BAD AND NO VALUE FOR RE-SALE. THEY SAY POWER STEERING IS THERE, BUT IF U DRIVE, U WILL COME TO KNOW, THEY ARE FOOLING CUSTOMERS. PICK-UP IS ALSO VERY BAD. ALL THE SCREW OF THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE TIGHT EVERY 1 WEEK OF DRIVING. TATA MOTORS EVEN HAS FAILED TO COPY TECHNOLOGY. THEY CHEAT THE CUSTOMERS BY SAYING THAT THEY HAVE THE LATEST TECHNOLOGY. AGAIN DO NOT PURCHASE TATA CARS, THERE IS NO RE-SALE VALUE FOR THEIR CAR AND U NEED TO CONTINOUSLY INVEST ON THEIR CAR TO KEEP THEM RUNNING.

      nothingNo resale value of TATA Cars

      Exterior

      tata put much effort to compete in market. Class exterior with chrome designs. Gorgeous head lamp. compact sedan class. Spanish tan colour is beautiful. Aerodynamic design.

       

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

      Much driving comfort. Smooth steering. Five adult can accomodate comfortly. All five power windows. Dual tone with rich black combination very attractive. Fabric design on door.

       

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

       Powerful engine. No other car give such good mileage of 25kmpl. New F type gear shift is very smooth in city drive.

      Ride Quality & Handling

       You can expect much better ride quality compare to dezire, verito vibe or figo. Very smooth driving. Even in pune traffic, you dont get tired. 

      Final Words

       Please note, tata have made fruitfull effore with modifications. in just 6.4 lac you ll get such class sedan car with 25kmpl mileage and 75 ps, 1400cc engine. Interior and exterior is better.

      rather than to spend 8Lac for Dezire 23kmpl, 7.3lac for Swift-23kmpl, 6.8 lac for small figo 20kmpl, it is better to spend for Indigo ecs. Also having cheaper good quality spares and good service network. This is SWADESI car. TATA is Public company. Dont believe on the comment of other trained person of ford, hyundai, maruti.Maruti is good but they are in ego of sale and rising car cost much higher than average. Indigo is always better in terms of look, performance or cost.

      Areas of improvement  

       Tata Motors should improve in marketing

       

      exterior, dual tone interior, performance, less cost, cheaper spares, good service centersno

      Exterior No problem at all, since my car is parked in the open with rains and sun beating on it, Kerala weather.  But everytime I wash it, it looks like new. Good paint job.  Panel gaps is a big, but so far water from rain has not gone inside the car or dicky.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) I brought the VX Full option in Nov 2011, Very comfortable, it is because I have the full option version, the seats are fabric and good. I use the car for very long distances, some times driving 3500-4000 km at a stretch Kerala to Mumbai, Nasik. I sleep in the car at nights in the back, very comfortable. The plastics could be better though. But then when I pay Rs. 6.04 laks for this full option, I dont mind. Because other company cars with all the features which I have in my car will cost me more than 8 laks.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is top notch. No complaints whatsoever.  Now after almost 22 months it gives 18-19 with AC on all the time. Gear box is a problem sometimes, shift is not smooth. I think in the new one introduced in 2013 they have improved.  So far problem I faced is with alternator, it went out of service after 16 months. I think it is because I am continously using it, daily at least I start and stop 10-12 times.  It cost me 12,000. If I had taken extended warranty, I would have saved that money as it was free replacement. But I had not taken extended warranty. I recommend anyone buying any car to please take extended warranty. I made a mistake by saving 3000 on extended warranty and ended up paying 12,000. The silencer is becoming loose, I have to check it. Otherwise no problems.  In 22 months I have driven about 34,000 km. So value for money.

      Ride Quality & Handling Smooth, I drive most of the times on very bad roads, but it handles it well.  My friend has Toyota Etios also, and he also drives as much as I do, but he has faced more problems. So my conclusion is my Indigo is better. Etios is good for smooth roads not for bad.  Service is excellent in Thrissur, Kerala. No complaints at all. By the way service for all model cars in Kerala they have very good service. So everyone is equal there.

      Final Words Really value for money.

      Areas of improvement Panel gaps, they look awful. And plastic. But I know Tata will not improve, they are like government.

      Overall good for the price I paid for.Some mechanical problems-Alternator dead had to replace new one for 12,000, silencer loosening.

      Exterior IS AVERAGE QUALITY.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) POOR QUALITY PLASTIC MATERIAL USED FOR INTERIOR. SPACE IS GOOD AND SITTING COMFORT IS AVERAGE.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox NOISY CABIN, ALWAYS HAVE ONE OR THE OTHER PROBLEM NEEDS ALOT OF MAINTENANCE. FUEL ECONOMY IS AVERAGE AND GOOD ON HIGHWAYS AND WITH AVE SPEED AOUND 70KMPH. ONE OR THE OTHER THING GOES WRONG AND U HAV TO BE AT THE SERVICE STATION REGULARLY AND U ARE TREATED LIKE TAXI DRIVERS THERE. DRIVEN ABOUT 50000 KMS AND ITS NOT A FAMILY CAR.

      Ride Quality & Handling AVERAGE, BRAKES NOT GOOD. brake at speed of 80 km is risky and u may skid or collide, and thing like this happen few times aand i have slowed down to peak speed of 70kmph even a wide 6 lanes highways.

      Final Words NOT A GOOD CAR FOR FAMILY. TAXI I DONOT KNOW.

      Areas of improvement INTERIOR PLASTIC AND SERVICE QUALITY. PEOPLE AT SERVICE STATION TREAT U LIKE DRIVERS AS TATA CARS ARE MORE IN TAXIS.

      Exterior

       i have purchased new indigo ecs-vx model.it is top version.i like its exterior so much.dual tone bumpers(front & rear) are so attractive and lot of strength in them.chromed fog lights are very dashing.tata logo also looking gud in front bumper.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

       music system is very good.very comfortable seats.gud brakes.in this version abs feature is also available.dashboard is also looking well.slightly lack of finish.major issue of missing ash tray,cup holders.overall interior is nice.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

       this is my first diesel car.before indigo i was using alto-lx.so their is less pick up then petrol car.tata is saying that they improved the nvh of car but i think it is same as in old cars.we have already 2 indicas(commercial purpose) & i compared indigo ecs with them.i found same nvh but i have no problem because at the time of driving i like loud music.

      Ride Quality & Handling

      i am addict of maruti.as compared to my old car i feel slightly unconvient to drive this.when i drive i feel that my hands are in air and they feel not comfortable as in alto. this time i have run only 250kms.so i give review on this after sometime(ride quality & handling).

      Final Words

       i am very happy because in this amount you only go for diesel-hatch back,not for sedan.secondaly no problem of finance because tata finance is available.finally it is a superb sedan.good value for money.

      Areas of improvement  

       arm rest in door for driver side,dashboard finish,ash tray,cup holders,low quality mud flaps,power window switch not available in front doors.i am getting 16km/ltr.in 250 kms.waiting for my first service.then i check whats the average is coming.

       

      exterior,interior,music system,alloy wheels,dual tone bumpersno arm rest for driver side,lack of finish in interior plastic,no cup holders,ash tray,mud flaps

      Exterior As expected for the price paid

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interior space is Ok and you can strech your legs a bit...and that can very well be done on a couch too...this car needs better interiors...feels like your are driving a commercial truck.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox POOR, Oil leakage from Engine after 70000 kms, coolant pipe leakage, replaced pipe 2 times. Cost was 8000 per service.

      Ride Quality & Handling Poor.

      Final Words If you are desparate enough for a cheap car then this might be the option. But there are better cars then this in the similar range. I have to think 10 times before taking my family along in this car. You never know when the car will stop abruptly.

      Areas of improvement Needs a total tranformation. Think 100 times before buying this car. I have got stuck amidst atleast 7-8 times because of short circuits, fuse blown up, Timing belt tore apart and name what not. The servicing takes minimum of 8 days as most of the times the spares are out of stock.

      Only spacepoor electrical components, overall finish, engine quality

      Exterior

       is good but it should be change from front. its tough to identify between indica and indigo should have sporty look

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

       its pathetic comparing to Swift never gave me feel and comfort of Sedan  although space is good enough but it makes you feel sitting in some old fashion car don't know what kind of plastic they use interiors are too bad

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

       though engine is good but noicy as all tata cars but average and low maintenance are only valid point to buy this car i had indigo for almost 4 years and average was always between 18-22 in delhi's traffic and on highway i guess its 24KMPL so FE is Awesome now come to Gearbox again one more pathetic thing in car whenever you shift gear it makes you feel driving tractor in comparison to swift and ritz.

      Ride Quality & Handling

       its not joyful its OK OK type of feel niether hard nor smooth. 

      Final Words

       Main setback is resale value no one wants to buy tata car accept cab drivers and car is good for taxi owners not for common people 

      Areas of improvement  

       From looks to engineering (interior,Gearbox,Vibration,Sound, Front look)

       

      FE is awesome i had this car for more then 3 year and average was always between 18 to 22interiors are not up to the mark, gears are not smooth and it vibrates

      Exterior Nice.

      Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Just the interiors are not upto mark, lot of space including boot, very comfortable. A nice car to own.just Tata needs to market it well and improve interiors.Tata needs to make more aggressive marketing as this car is worth the money we pay.

      Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Enginee performanace is good, Not much sound of engine while driving, smooth gear shifting, like butter.

      Ride Quality & Handling Worth a buy at the price , it is definetely a good car but as usual we are ready to spend more than 1.6 lac on  other cars like maruti, hoonda and huyndai with similar or less specifications. just a mental block with indians. tata has really done good. just need to improve interiors.

      Final Words Nice car at this price. really it is nice upto now

      Areas of improvement The quaility of plastic used is bad. It needs a lot of improvement. It would have been better had tata spend some money on better plastic quality.

      I'm from Sri Lanka and brought TATA indigo Ecs brand-new car on March 2016. This is the worst decision taken by me. I never recommend this to Sri Lankan as I have bad experience with this car. After 10000km, some sound came from steering wheel and after had oil leack. I put it to Dimo Lanka for check this. They have replace the Rackend. Now car has done 21000km. again same sound is hearing and not comfortable the car. It’s like going with cart.

      I inquired to Service station, they said car should be keep with them nearly 5 days or have to go for colombo one day service. I feel, Customer don't want to bother like this for brand new car. If the car has technical problem, service station must be give their high attention at least. They have utilize trainers for this and they are enjoying with car.

      I'm really disappointed and never recommend this at Sri Lanka.

      Not staisfyRack-end has changed before 12000km
