A nice VFM package from Tata and that is expected. But apart from features, I also expect more engine options. Speically a more powerful diesel. Can take the fight from Dzire to Linea for sure if its equipped with a VGT in diesel.

1) Instrument cluster on drivers side is a nice move. Now if this is a positive feature, it must be carried onto the hatch too.

2) Body colored or not body colored ORVM are not something I will call a feature. Its like providing wipers as a feature.

3) Wheel rim covers are something I really hate to core. I have stated the reason elsewhere in Honda City thread. We can simply avoid this.

4) Even the most basic model must have tacho, power windows and central locking. This car is a reasonably big car with the stated wheelbase. So its not a nice thing to extent oneself everytime to either roll up the window or to extend to open a lock.

5) Six way powered driver's seat is a segment first.

6) ABS only on highest version a bad move. Atleast it should be available in others as an option.

++1, but was referring to FGT, should have been VGT

[sidindica]

For pics you have Mr. Tushky.
I have NEVER seen this car in flesh.

Sid,

You were 30 mins late, werent you?
I applaud you for your scoops, they help a lot. Your Cruze scoop has made my friend wait for it rather than buying a Jetta.

For Indigo,
6 way powered seat, Airbags, Bluetooth gizmos, where is it heading.
Seems this time it will outsell the prev model too.
Thanks "Sidindica" for spl "Sidindigo"

No pics, seriously. i have never seen the car testing in Delhi.

Tata has discontinued the normal indigo LS and LX models.

[Gilead]

Very good scoop. So the TDI option is out then?

[neotraveller]
