Re: Tata Motors to launch refreshed variants in October 2012

^^^ Is just these features that will be changed or there could be some change in exteriors as well, like the one we saw in Autoexpo (the Hybrid Manza concept).

when the manza was launched, one of the main features was that the back rest angle was the same as that of the e class. At this rate, I wonder if after a few more variants, we'll have a bed in the manza's back

^Isn't that the regular Indigo eCS in the VX trim? It was launched sometime back. ABS being the major ad on.

Re: Tata Motors to launch refreshed variants in October 2012

Vista 90 - S Power - Add some more variants to the table to confuse the buyers even further!. I hope they provide the 90bhp quadrajet with 15inch wheels from the Manza atleast or dual tone colour scheme like the one on the Anniversary Edition(white with black roof) which they offered in the past. 15inch look doubtful as they weren't even offered on the Saffire 90 petrol (whatever happened to this variant,never seen one on the road).

Re: Tata Motors to launch refreshed variants in October 2012

Vista90 Petrol was a dud and so would be Vista 90s Power. They need to get the suspension, handling and niggles sorted out. Instead of the 90hp, they should have offered the vista with Manza dash, 15 inch tyres. One can hardly see the current ZX on roads and who would pay more premium to buy this? Figo is eating into their territory big time with their VFM play while TML is trying to get into the premium segment. Wrong choice of product for that as Vista is pulled down heavily by the Indica affiliation in the minds of people.

Manza 75hp is another gem. Puny power for such a heavy vehicle. 90 hp had just sufficient power for the vehicle but 75 hp (which i guess is the current Vista engine) will make it under powered unless it is tuned for operations with minimal turbolag and low end power like the FORD classic . Don't know what the top honchos in TML passenger car smoking? Surprised since they could roll out hits/segment changers in commercial segments with the ace/ace zip. Would be glad to proven wrong as I have a very soft corner for Tata cars.
