Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

^I scored 1600.

The Level 2 - Slogan requires you to give them access to your Twitter/FB account to post on behalf. And they say adding both the accounts 'increases' chances of winning.

They'll prolly choose the smart auto-enthu guys from the score and I guess that 50 Character 'Slogan' would be what they tweet/post on participants behalf, tagging themselves.

The wise decision of participating/not is left to you.

Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

Excellent review guys! After the Tata Safari / Storme this is the only other car from Tata stable that has me excited. The proposition of Diesel Automatic is mouth watering. I will be even more excited and take a plunge if it also gets introduced in the Bolt. There website does not indicate if Bolt will come with Diesel AMT. It will be the perfect office commute vehicle. Having one sedan already in the family a diesel automatic hatch will be best bet. And kudos to Tata for launching an exciting product

Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

Got 1900 points. Lets see what happens next.

By the way am going to the nearest showroom around noon to see the car and probably book it.

Exciting day ahead!

Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

Aditya and Rehaan thanks for great detailed review, you guys are fantastic.

Saw the car in person at Inorbit Vashi & took a small test drive.
I must admit, looks smashing from outside & very premium inside.
Many have commented on similarity with Vista/Manza, I found hard to find anything except the door pads probably.
Waiting for launch & price announcement which is happening later today.

I must say Tata is doing everything possible to change their image this time. They have transformed the product & are doing the same in marketing department (these events are managed by wizcraft)
I am sure customers will get to see similar changes in after sales & service departments as well.
BTW as per the sales guy from Fortune cars present at the event, they have got appx 100 bookings. Deliveries for MT versions are likely to begin by end of Aug & for AMT by November.

Tata has a winner on hand this time

Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

I scored 2000 points in the challengenext competition, with 3 minutes to spare. It took me to a new window and asked me to enter my email address to proceed and then nothing happened.

According to someone I know from industry, it is not coming before the onset of 2015.

Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

If the Zest does well, then the Bolt launch will be a little delayed. Maybe by November end, as Tata would like to grab market share during the festive season. If the Zest (both Revotron and diesel AMT) fails to make a mark, then expect the Bolt by October. I have been told this by a reliable source in the industry.

Read this in a ZigWheels advertorial, Bolt is delayed to yearly next year.

I was really looking forward to trade in my Vista with the Bolt. This vehicle is for my family use and after the Storme entered our lives last year, my family is a total Tata fan now ( I am still now ). The wait will have to be longer then.

Re: Tata Zest : Official Review

Guys, any links to the launch of ZEST?

Tata should be doing a all-guns-blazing media event to launch the Zest to push the interest and enthusiasm even further.
