Overview

Tata Indica V2 DLS BSIII Image

Tata Indica is the first truly Indian car. It is the manifestation of the vision of Ratan Tata, the chairman of Tata Motors, who dreamt to build a car with the Zen's size, the Ambassador's internal dimensions, the price of a Maruti 800 and with the running cost of diesel.

The Tata Indica was designed at IDEA, Italy and looks quite attractive. The Indica V2 is an affordable hatchback with improved power, good fuel economy, and roomy interiors that give it a "big-car feel". This car comes in a large number of variants which can be clubbed into 4 categories: Base, Turbo, DiCor, and Xeta. The Base and Turbo variants are powered by a 1.4-litre diesel engine that generates a power of 53 to 67 bhp. The DiCor variants get a 69 bhp 1.4-litre DiCor engine and the Xeta variants are powered by a 1.2-litre petrol engine that generates a power of 64 to 70 bhp. A smooth 5-speed manual transmission that is standard among all variants provides quick responsive shifts. Its roomy inside is comfortable for five and it is a car that delivers great value for money. The new enhancement comes with the power of a turbo-charged intercooled engine, and also includes dual front airbags and anti-lock braking system (ABS).

The latest introduction from Tata is the Xeta LPG variants. The new LPG variants come equipped with a dual fuel (petrol and LPG) engine which has reduced CO2 emissions by about 10 per cent. It delivers excellent fuel efficiency both in the city and on highways. It generates a maximum power of 64 bhp with petrol and an equally good 61 bhp with LPG. The transition between the two fuel modes is smooth.
