The Beast is Born in Sky Grey: My Tata Zest XT Diesel!!

[sappy3937]

Congrats on your new aquisition! Zest is a wonderful car. TATA has set their own benchmark, and they should improve more on their upcoming products to stay in the competition.

I have test driven both the petrol and disel Zest. The vehicle is an all rounder for sure. There is mild turbo-kick around 2000 RPM in the diesel which is quite addictive.

Looks good, hadles well, rides good, excellent NHV level, beautiful interior, broad and comfortable seats, lot of features and not to forget best quality sound system.

Enjoy your new ride.

Thank you for your wishes.

My driving style is between 60-80 below 2000 RPM with no sudden acceleration and brakes.

Yes, I will keep updating the thread.

Hey Arjun, Your Grey beast looks awesome buddy. Those seat covers are so nice & matches with the interiors of your beauty. If you dont mind how much did they costed you? Also what other accessories have you bought for her? Have you done underbody or any body coating or sunfilm? Just for knowledge since I wanted the same for my whity..

Hi


Thank you all for your wishes!!!


It cost me 5000 for the seat covers. I did it here in Bangalore.

Apart from these, I bought neck rest from flip kart cost 200 and formula 1 Car shampoo+wax cost 250.

I thought of doing the underbody also but found that there is a very thick layer of coating already in the
underbody and did not go for it.

I have not done any body coating or sun film yet!

@mparjun5:

Can you give the link from where you ordered the neck rest? And, if possible, some pics of them as I didn't find them in the previous set of pictures. Also, your user review would be appreciated.

Regards,
Nikunj

Congratulations on your purchase.

If possible remove the pic of your car which shows the chassis number. This forum is also viewed by people who are not members of TAI. This is a precaution to avoid misusing your car's information. Just my two cents.

Tarik Arora, yes I get these figures.

Even I was shocked to see the car giving such good numbers in city.

LOL it is in Bangalore..

July 1 I am going for a long drive from Bangalore to Palakkad. Will Keep updating from that ride too!!

Congratulations on your new car. Zest is a VFM car and Tata has improved its standards a lot from Cab car and Zest is the best proof that Tata can produce quality products also. Wishing you many more miles with your beast

It must be the reliability and his trust in Tata. Just test drive Zest and you will follow it!

A small trip in my Tata Zest

Completed 10000 KM!!

The +ve points about the car are
1. The car is very stable at high speeds, curves and also on uneven roads. We feel confident in every drive.
2. Delivering good mileage on all surfaces.
3. Very spacious often felt the difference between Zest and my dads Dzire when it was fully loaded. Zest has plenty of legroom for the back seat passengers.
4. The music system is awesome! It is the best. The GPS/Maps also works fine.
5. The suspension is solid and is smooth in all the terrains.

I have not faced any issues with the Zest and this has made my belief in TATA really strong. They are capable of producing cars of top notch quality . The 2016 Auto Expo also showcased the HEXA, NEXON and KITE 5. All look Awesome in terms of Design and features.

The -ve that I felt that TATA should work on Zest are:.

1. Should increase the number of bottle holder as Zest has just a tray under the rear passengers seat.
2. Providing a arm rest will be a nice option as it takes the car to a different level and also is a comfort for the driver.


Thank you!
