The TATA Indica Vista is all set to be rolled out soon. This is the word the dealers have received but there is nothing official on this piece of news.
The new Indica Vista will be available with a 1.2litre petrol engine which is called - Safire. The CRDi version will be called the Quadrajet and is a 1.3 litre engine. There is another variant to this car which is TATA’s own 1.4 litre turbo diesel engine.
The Quadrajet engine is the one manufactured by Maruti Suzuki and is currently used in the Swift and DZire models.
The word we hear from the TATA camp is that no old models will be discontinued for this, and all of them will co-exist with the new Indica Vista.
TATA has finally unvielled the 1 lakh car at the dealer price level. This works out to about USD 2500. The end customer will be able to buy it for about 20,000 more, so between 1.2 to 1.3 lakh ruppees.
The car itself looks pretty neat and sweet. It measures 3.1 metres in length and 1.6 metres in height. The NANO is about 1.5 metres in width.
The engine of the car is a 623 cc multi point fuel injection petrol eng. The car comes with tubeless tyres which is a good poisitive surprise.
The TATA nano will have a huge advantage over other four wheelers in terms of fuel economy. The reported fuel economy the car will give is about 20 kms/ litre. Also the car is EURO 4 compliant which is great.
