Tata Indica Vista REFRESH

anonymous · 7th October 2010, 12:48

With these small upgrades and dual tone interiors, the car certainly looks upmarket. One thing is remain to be seen the quality of plastic used in this refersh model.

Music system similar to Manza's i wanted to know which models will come with airbag's? Very happy to see NCAP rating hoping i will get at least 4 stars from 5.

Tata must have provided steering mount audio controls on the new Vista refresh. This would make it more sensible refresh. TATA must think of Console box between front row seats will be a welcome addition on vista. Where is the A/T on Vista? TATA must provide an 250NM torque AT gear boxes for Diesel Vista and Manza range

SRS Airbags are available on Aura+ in Vista in both the Powertrain configs. i.e Safire and Quadrajet power mills.
In Manza also, its the same trim level - Aura+.

Power Windows are available in Aqua ( Only Front Windows) and above (all Windows) versions in both the Powertrain versions.

The high end version Aura+ has Steering mounted audio controls.
It also has electric ORVM control on the door grab handle above the power window switch cluster. Will soon upload a pic.

TATA's TV commercials must advertise this model as Vista as this has all these additional good features. TATA brochure must show these features clearly. I am unable to see them.

Even the relatively new website of Vista drive tech 360deg interior view doesnot show these features!

When will they replace the center dash console to be exactly behind the steering wheel? In my opinion I really dislike Vista just for that reason.

Maverick1977 · 7th October 2010, 19:02

Joe, dude I have been driving this car since the last 2 years & was also sceptical of the centre dash board initially but now see the advantage of having it where it is. I get a clear, unobstructive view of the road ahead & is especially good on dark roads on the highway. Drive it to believe it...

the vista aura plus neither has steering mounted controls nor power adjust OSRVM, which the manza has. Only it has a 4 spoke steering wheel to house the airbag.

Center console is not really a problem. Drive for some time & you get used to it. Infact if you have seen amby's & Earlier Premier Padmini(fiat) the console was in the center that to lower than the present console.

+1 to what @Maverick1977 have said - I was also skeptical first, but it is not really a problem.

I will miss the Tachometer in the new Vista Aqua though.

Maverick79 · 9th October 2010, 22:43

Sidindica, I was mentioning about the steering controls in the Vista Refresh. Will soon provide the photos. I am not able to upload as I am still a newbiee.. Will complete my 25 posts fast and then upload..

You can upload photos even if you are a newbie.
So go ahead post those Vista pictures that you have!

Still the central mounted console? Im pretty disappointed. I know a lot of people in my friends network had opted out from buying vista just because of that.

This looks much better than the previous special edition that came in white and black. However are there anything that was done to improve the build quality?
