| ![]() They always do this, don't they? The same problem came up during review of tigor, harrier, and now it's altroz's turn. These are one of those chinks Tata motors needs to iron out from their armour before they consider themselves a global manufacturer. |

| ![]() Team BHP review is the "Gold Standard" of vehicle reviews. Tata Motors should arrange the maximum variants for testing as soon as possible. The unbiased and honest nature of the review is the deciding factor for many who are buying a new car. |

Infractions: 0/1 (4) | ![]() I have always felt Team BHP reviews are fact based (at most you could accuse them of being biased towards enthusiast loved cars). Most of the general public is only going to read the exhaustive review. They are not going to go post by post to every members personal opinions. In my opinion, TATA should base their decision on whether or not Team BHP mods conduct an honest review not whether majority of the Team BHP members have a positive vibe about the car.

| ![]() As popular YouTube is, i think people watch it more for entertainment. Innumerable times, i have friends, acquaintances tell me they don’t get the full picture from any of the YouTube reviews. [all reviews end in 10 mins or so was their logic] All of these, i repeat all of these people defaulted to TBhp again and again before making a decision. It was also not just the reciews, but the quality comments that follow the review that helped them seal their decision. Last edited by rrsteer : 17th February 2020 at 15:16. |

| ![]() I think his point was for TEAMBHP to add YouTube to its repertoire. We all know what happened to Nokia and Blackberry. |

However for our level of detailed review we hardly have enough pictures and driving impression feedback from these drives which are usually less than half a day on a pre planned route. Hence after these short drives we ask for the car in Mumbai where the car is with us for almost a week for shooting + driving in city as well as Highway. GTO also takes important cars after the review team to corroborate the review points so there is no chance of conflicting opinions. This media fleet car in Mumbai is what is not available by Tata Motors. | |

On top of that, the company is trying hard to be profitable in an ethical way. No matter what happens, Tata Motors will never take shortcuts to become profitable. In terms of ethics and values, they set an excellent example. They are just caught in this transformation. I just hope they do not disappoint the consumers due to this inside-mess and destroy their image. It took years and few good models to again build a somewhat positive image! | |

Is there a transformation going on? Maybe yes. But even in this transitional fiasco they need to ensure that certain issues and requirements cannot be overlooked. Proactiveness is required. What's the point of all the effort, even if sincere, if such threads keep popping up every month? | |

| ![]() I think this is just poor planning from Tata. Your products are hitting the sweet spots, the enthusiasts are all worked up, just stop behaving like a moody girlfriend. Last edited by warrioraks : 17th February 2020 at 17:58. |

| ![]() I have a feeling a car will be made available by Tata themselves very soon. This kind of publicity tends to get the attention of the higher-ups. |

BANNED | ![]() Just bashing TATA and making it sin for not providing car for review is uncalled for. There could be some reason behind it, mostly related to logistics. Just for information TATA Motors overall is much bigger than Mahindra and Maruti Suzuki - source. Every company sets priority on their own for future course. What is mine, may not be others. Hopefully, soon TATA will provide car(s) for review or review team may get from owner. |

![]() By the way - hadn't we received the super cool looking Altroz model along with the official media drive invitation? Or we don't get enough time for the full review to happen in that window & need a keeper car for another week or so to complete the full review? Really weird prioritization if they arranged for 2 golden coloured wine glasses to be sent but not a car to keep for a week. I'm betting someone in the PR/Marketing department didn't earn their salary with hard work last month! Quite a silly oversight if it is one. Altroz drive invite post from Altroz thread (Tata developing a premium hatchback, the Altroz. Edit: Launched at 5.29 lakh.) | |
