I would suggest you to open up the bonnet of the Hexa and take a look at the components inside (and compare them to your erstwhile Scorpio). Every single component is manufactured/made by a reputed company (air quality sensor by Continental - made in Germany, turbo from Honeywell, just to give a few examples). Gone are the days when Tata/Mahindra used to make worse cars and price them accordingly. These new vehicles are made according to world class standards and a single incident in no way undermines the reliability of the whole model. I'm also fairly certain that hundreds of Hexa customers that I know and have spoken to on the countrywide group are also perfectly satisfied with their vehicles. But of course, aren't we all guilty of prejudice before understanding and reading or even experiencing something firsthand? ![]() | |

| ![]() A question to all Hexa owners : How long did you wait between booking and delivery? I booked on 6th September and still do not have any confirmation on delivery date. Every follow-up with dealership ends with "We will close the loop today end of day sir !!! ". ![]() |

Even after considering festive season demand, dealership should be able to get some idea on tentative delivery date after 25 days of booking. In my case, there is no confirmation on VIN or delivery date. While most of the texts go unanswered, some return with a false commitment which is never met. Now that I have involved Tata, hope things will clarify next week. Another BHPian friends booking too is in similar situation. | |

| ![]() Does the Hexa Automatic now come the super drive mode selector? Wasn't this unique to the Manual variant(XM and XT)? They talk about the auto, manual and sports mode but isn't that the gearbox modes rather than the drive modes? If so, why have the shown the super drive modes selector? Is this an error or does the automatic variant have the rotary knob for driving modes now? Attaching a snap from Tata Motors facebook page. ![]() Last edited by esoticoreventon : 1st October 2017 at 15:46. Reason: Adding image. |

My big concern with high end Tata cars with all the gadgets/bells/whistles is glitch free reliability of these. I would have no hesitation in investing in the lowest trim Hexa; the underlying platform is mechanically solid and that version is unbeatable value for money for someone that needs a vehicle of that size. But IMO the jury is still out on the reliability of the higher trim versions, and there would be a better answer in the year or two of real world use of the car and all of its many gadgets. | |

The gadgets are already in use in the zest and bolt for more than 2 years. Admittedly they aren't exactly the same but I think they are a good representation. Since nobody has reported any major problems with those, I think that the Hexa should be fine. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() After the 1st long drive to Hyderabad and back over the weekend, I've noticed 2 things: 1) Dirt / mud accumulates on the rear door sil due to water splashing from the rear wheel. Need some kind of a front mud flap as well at the rear. 2) FE reported by the MID and the actual ( kms/ fuel refilled ), differs by around 2 kmpl. Keeping the engine running at around 1800rpm / 110km/hr speeds reports a FE of 14.2 on the MID. actual comes to around 12.7 On the return journey, we did higher speeds of 120km/hr with the rpm generally at around 2100, and got 13.4 kmpl as reported on the MID. 3) Low beam is woefully bad on the highway, and barely sufficient in city especially when it rains. Has anyone upgraded the bulbs ? Any suggestions ? 4) at the above speeds, wipers start to streak/ judder across the windscreen. I'm thinking of trying the Bosch Clear Advantage Wipers Has anyone else noticed the difference in Fuel Efficiency ? thanks Srinivas Last edited by smsrini : 3rd October 2017 at 13:32. |
