Something wrong with this guy? He says that the zest is more expensive with a million bucks and finally he says it's the most affordable an the facts on the screen say that it's the cheapest of the lot! And that the Zest's handling is bad over 140?! Do urban commuters even go near that mark? and can the xcent even dream of going above that mark?
This is the only reviews I am seeing in Internet saying TATA ZEST is not that good. I feel the dash board scratch shown in ZEST is made by someone then that could be done in any of these compared car :). I feel the reviews is little biased for the new car in the Market. But it does not mean the Aspire is bad also. :)
Looks like people have lost their minds here. How can anyone possibly say aspire is worst looking car. Guys this not a biased review. I have driven all four cars and aspire comes out on top. If you already have other cars that's not aspire's mistake to come late. The engine is just amazing. Try it .. you will love it
In earlier reviews Overdrive have used reliability and service issues of Tata Motors as points to try and degrade the Zest and so it is really glaring not to see any mention of Fords rather serious problems with recalls over a rather long period of time. Virtually no model of theirs released so far have not been recalled, some with very serious and potentially dangerous problems. Also Ford have not had a uniformly good service record as well. Clarifications from the reviewer would be welcome. Thumbs up though for Fords focus on safety. But again, considering how airbags have been one of the issues for the recalls, 6 or more will not matter unless they work as required. Points to ponder.
Not gonna lie. Of all compact-sedans, the Indigo eCS has the least stubby side-profile. Maybe do a "middle-variant" shootout between DZire VDi, Zest XMS, eCS VX, Amaze SX, Aspire ZXi, and Xcent S. You'll find that the eCS and Zest offer the most features for the money.
btarunr yes sir you are totally right but forgot to mention another point that they also offer higher depreciation along with nightmarish A.S.S. Thank you.
Climb or down ramp/hill safety feature missing in Zest Auto Diesel By Kannan for Tata Zest April 02, 2015 32 people found it helpful. 3805 ViewsWrite Review 1 ⁄ 5 After hearing a lot about the convenience and benefits of Automatic model in mid segment, I recently bought XMA Zest Diesel from Tata Motors Dealer at Bengaluru and I am really shocked to find a very important safety feature completely ignored by the manufacturer's Technical/ Safety/Quality Team as well as by many sites that review new cars. In Bengaluru especially where you can have many climb/down hill roads, or when you are driving into or out of Shopping Malls having basement/ multilevel parking the Car is completely unsafe since while driving up the Ramp, if Hand brake is not applied at the extreme high level it is impossible to push up the Car. Almost I had to pull back the handbrake in both hands and then choose to accelerate to move forward, when you are mid way in Ramp (up). Similarly, in slope if you are waiting between two cars , it is impossible to prevent Zest from going forward and trying to take it back on Reverse was almsot impossible. This in my view is completely compromised Safety aspect not only for those driving but also those who are behind or ahead of you in this situation above. I have informed the Sales Team at the Dealer place, he said will bring it to the notice of their RM/technical team. I want to know if this could be complained to RTO and other authorities for deficiency in design of safety aspect. I forgot to mention, I am driving for last 19 years and never thought automatic version would have this compromise. Pls help.
Are sure, you have done your homework right ? Zest is the most VFM car of all 4. And it doesnt touch 1 million price tag on any variant, but Aspire & Amaze do. I brought XMS diesel at 7.3 OTR in Goa. XT was just 70,000 ahead. I did not bother to check Amaze because of low quality and cheap look of interiors. Autocar reports performance of Grand i10 diesel as 0 - 100 in 20 seconds. You want to say, same engine is very fast in Xcent which is 40 Kg heavy than Grand i 10 and performance is near to Zest diesel at 15.1 seconds? Are you sure, Xcent diesel 71 PS is good for highway but Zest 90 PS is not ? And I am sure, you havent turned on Harman music system on Zest or else you would never say Xcent has best music. And comparing tool marks on Zest as " interior " is epitome of biased nature. May be other cars have Mantra " Khul ja Sim Sim " and their central console falls apart fluently for mechanic to work on it. :D ......... You have not even listed pricing of all 4, for diesel variants for your pricing claims.
Rajesh Sawant Topmost variant has 6 airbags, myKey,most powerful engine, I have driven ford and once you drive ford you will not leave it, Least body roll (Try ford on hills and you will see the difference) and obviously most safe cabin..
+Rajesh Sawant zest may be a good value for money. but the problem is you will hate the car when the car starts giving rattling sound from every where after few months. the engine will be perfect, as it is made by fiat... experience from an indica vista.
+basil abraham TML has come a long way from indica /vista... Owning a revotron XT for 8 months... and ownership experience is amazing... Yes they have still room to improve but it would be wrong to judge zest/bolt based on indica experience As for rattles - check out honda city new gen issues - www.team-bhp.com/forum/official-new-car-reviews/145656-honda-city-official-review-279.html#post3794360. Indian crowd wants everything that too within 5 Rs. TML is the organization who can give them that and they are currently heading towrds right direction. Wait till they launch 3-4 more products while they erase thier previous niggling history .
+dharmvir singh I am not criticizing Ford Aspire here, it has 100 Bhp for moving 1048 Kg giving super power to weight ratio. Top end Apire is loaded too. But to be practical, no one revs engine beyond 2800 even on highway, so all horses are never used in any case. Zest diesel too have powerful engine. Check XMS diesel Zest price with 7.5 OTR with available diesel options in other cars. They barely give you base variant for that price. Still most auto forum, on net rate Zest having better interiors, better space, bigger boot, Best suspension, better or equal ride and handling. Add to that Gold AMC. And Zest do have weight of 1170 Kg for a reason.
+Aditya Chandna odmag always gives negetive reviews of tata, really zest has the best interiors and equipment. See other reviews or take a test drive you'll know the truth, TATA IS BACK..
I have been driving the aspire 1200 cc petrol vehicle for the last 3 months.the problems are 1)doors are giving double sound when closed. boot door is very smooth . 2) interior of the doors are shaking when windows are operated. 3) I have to come down to gear 1 when there is a small steep after taking a turn
ladies and gentlemen welcome to the most paid review you can ever find. figo aspire is best??? seriously?? did someone mention cabin insulation, cheap interiors and sturdiness of vehicle?? Does it even come close to solidity, ride quality ergonomic feel of zest? what can i say. Stupid fanboys driven by American hype!!
th-cam.com/video/xvKf-T2jyrc/w-d-xo.html. Now, if you ar done shagging to it. Watch this. Imagine a 1998 Indica platform of zest owning a 2007 Ford Figo platform. 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@bam bam Dude!! First of all mind your language, you don't even know me. So stay in your limits and not use foul language.!! Secondly, Crash test do not depend on airbags, it depends on sturdiness of the body. It's ability to take impacts I.e. supporting impact beams and most of all load capacity of underpinning platforms. And more details for you. There is official fact sheet as well. www.globalncap.org/results. So stick to your toys, don't bother taking about cars if you don't get a clue.
@bam bam Well Mercedes and Polo also have 1 star difference only doesn't mean they are same right. A 5 star rated car and 4 star rated car in terms of safety are miles different. Similarly a 3 star rated car and 4 star rated car are also miles different. Esp. when you consider both cars have same safety features and hell that 3 star boasts more and still doesn't match assurance of the 4 star rated car when pushed to its limits even if it is an outdated phased out model built on a platform that is 2 decades old, imagine the gulf in class.!! 🤣🤣🤣 Now coming to speeds, at least you realise that stability at those "fast speeds" whichever speed you call and survival at that speed during breaking or drifting and turning is equally important right?? You do realise that even a tire burst due to a nail on the road can kill you right?? Or you believe you don't care for life as long as your car is cool enough to flaunt your friends that I have "NFS type thing" in garage??
@bam bam At least you understand that much that safety is more important need for speed. That's why also German cars are more expensive and that's why sturdiness matters. I don't have a zest my friend has. Believe me, no car gives that kind of assured feeling at 3 digit speeds that zest manages. It was after driving zest I decided to go for Tiago.
But what does it mean by a second power band after 120 kmph ? And for the amaze idtec i drove it once on hwy at max and it touched 140 normally and still it had some juice left and i topped 160+ but then slowed down due to the traffic approach
Do you folks suggest between Figo Aspire TDCi and Tata Zest XMS 75PS, not much Cost difference. Few issues with Ford, Handling after 120km, Build quality and tiny tire R14, otherwise I am almost with Ford. Come to Zest, its long term reliability. Any thoughts please?!
Proud to be a owner of Aspire.. i have driven 90000kms and still it's best with low maintenance, mileage as well as performance and most importantly the safety..
Looks like a paid review from Ford..... I have tried all these 4 sedans and found Zest as the better option among all. You talk about the drive quality or pricing or the topnotch interior quality, Zest is be far superior to all the cars.
I am planning for ford aspire titanium (diesel) in this month, as company is offering 65 k cash discount +19 k exchange bounce .is there any chance of increasing this offer amount because company is going to launch its facelift version very soon ;is this true? If it is so, we will wait for that or buy it now which would be best deal
Even if i agree that Ford Figo Aspire excels on most areas than Honda amaze, i have to completely disagree about the mileage part. One thing in which Amaze absolutely excels & demolishes the competition is on driveability and mileage. In no world does Amaze return a mileage figure of 15.86 kmpl in city and 23.98 kmpl on highways. The worst mileage which i have managed to get from amaze is 17kmpl and that too after very spirited driving. If driven like a sane regular person, i constantly get 22-23 kmpl in city and 24-25 kmpl on highways. Yes Ford ASS has definitely improved contrary to the myth/rumors floating around, but you should also have mentioned that ford engines aren't known for engine longevity. That title remains with the Japanese companies till date, google away if you want. So this review is definitely biased in favor of new entry car. At-least be honest and don't mislead people. Thanks.
Hyundai xcent is good car as it comes with a complete package in second top variant. Zest too is very nice car but only thing i didnt like was that black plastic on doors and interiors as it gets fade later. Amaze is purely for performance and speed. Aspire too new to comment. Hyundai xcent and Zest are best as of now.
Hai friends I have driven all 4 cars best one is ford aspire 1.5 titanium plus it's just amazing. Honda amaze also good seating is good for long drives. Tata zest and hundai Xcent alos good Milage aspire 1 St. 22.3 kmpl " amaze 2 nd. 20.6 kmpl " Xcent 3rd. 21. Kmpl " zest getting me 18 kmpl 😪
Great review.. Everyone knows Ford figo aspire is the best looking,best performing and the safest in it's segment. They are just in denial. I have driven all of the cars in this segment except for Zest because I don't like taxis,so I think the best in this segment in the aspire.
+Dinesh Venkatasamy Ya actually dzire is more of a taxi but it's the tata's image which somehow indulges us to think whatever tata makes is for commercial use.
Zest is the best... As it gives mileage.. Cheap Spares... Easy repairable and has good Looks with lot of features.. ... The Reviewer put an opinion.. ZEST is go NO NO on Speed above 140 Km/hr. I would like to ask which road in india.. was he able to ride above 100 Km/hr in India... Even Taj Express has speed limit of 100 Km/hr... Chutiya review
Best sedan as it is fully loaded and fuel efficient if we talk about Zest revotron its worst car in terms of gear shifting and average terms...desire is too old and common in market.....amaze is bad in body and interior quality.....so figo aspire rocks in every sense.....so guys go for it........
i've bored watching every comparison with dzire, this one was a SENSIBLE comparison, maruti has the weakest metal on his cars. well am planing to go with figo these time and kindly increase audio level, it was very low.
Well deepanshu kelkar , since you have made it personal , for starters lets talk numbers . 1. Dealer network , Ford has 2 authorized service centres in Noida ; and 5 in an area as large as Delhi . Honda has 4 and 35 respectively . Toyota has even better numbers . So what are you going to do when your favourite dealership runs out of spares required for your repair job ? Drive to another city ? 2. Don't take my word for it , Check any car enthusiast website , Carwale and Team-Bhp . The general consensus is that the cars are good , but ASS sucks ass.
+Samrat Roy Honda is no where as pleasurable to drive as ford. test drive the aspire and you immediately realise how superior it is.Numbers you want, well how do 0-100 in under 10s sound? Regarding their service network, it is improving slowly but surely.

was this review paid... this man didnt did his lessons well... ford is the most underexciting car of the lot and according to him it wins all... just tell how much were u paid by ford --__--
Harshil Yadav 0-100 11.5s most uninspiring naa, when even 100 HP Amaze does it in 13.5 s, best ride/handling balance, safest car, best insulated cabin, best AC, 1 f best audio system, now whats wrong with it, Indians are fools buying such pathetic Hondas,Suzukis,etc
Harshil Yadav First of all, 'underexciting' is not a word. Secondly, Ford has always made cars with the best driving manners in India, except for Ecosport. If you don't know that, you are not a car enthusiast and your statement is based out of outright ignorance.
+jandj Godwin In this review 'Aspire' is a clear winner..no doubt..it's fast, known 'Ford's ergonomics and handling', muted cabin and fun to drive car(i would say 'Hoot to drive' ) in this lot..
Sorry to say this. Really, a biased review with Figo Aspire. Is this car a late entrant with all the bells & whistles.? No..Never... Xest is comparitively a better all round package. Being an Indian, we should be pride in promoting TATA brand. But, over here you are indicating the flaws of the vehicle as closer. Also then please see the conditions of Figo and Fiesta and even Amaze which is having a lot of damages / uneven finishes in the dash and cabin.. Please, expecting a better review next time.. Thank you !!!!
***** You are absolutely nuts to think the Zest is better than Aspire, just test drove the Aspire, I wud say I can compare Aspire with i20 Elite and new 1.5 TDi Polo not any of these pathetic Honda,Hyundai, Sure Zest is Tatas best effort so far still a far cry from Zest which felt light years better than Zest
***** Don't know why these guys are so biased with Tata Motors. Zest is one of the best car in it's segment. I have test driven almost all the cars of its segment an finally chose The Zest. Requesting buyers not to go on this biased reviewas and choose wisely after test driving all the cars.
neel181190 I too have driven Zest, and dont get me wrong, its the best Indian car yet but still no way better that the Aspire I test drove yesterday, the Aspire easily outclasses all of its competition in terms of drive,safety,milegae,features too upto an extent, Its not new that a new car beats an already existing car, Tata has more time and more space for improvement, just dont get the personal fanboyism overtake reality
the pro tata guys should b shocked to fin a naturally aspirated i10 produces more power that the turbocharged, now that's pathetic.any bajaj single silender engine sounds refined than nano,which was super dooper flop.BTW even this shit was developed with assistance from Bosch, wtf.check TH-cam videos.
if someone doubts the ford's driving system,......dude you seriously are illiterate in terms of automotive knowledge....!!! its renowned in world....and if you dont like it....its you who are the mistake....!!!
gaurav nagal U r absurd, Aspire is the best sub 4m compact sedan I ve ever driven, sure its not as good as Polo, Jazz, I 20 ELite still the closest to them out f all sub 4m cars
Ramakrishnan Ramki October 15 or November 1st week, probably by last week of October itself, also the smart news is that the new Figo hatch might become the most fuel efficient hatch ever made in India, probably it will hit 27+ kmpl ARAI certified mileage Despite this it will have more power comfort space than the ever popular Swift and better stock audio system and more importantly at least 30000 RS cheaper than Swift variant to variant, after all this even if people are going blind for Suzuki and some plastic pathetic Hyundais, there is no point, its the Indian mind set thats at stake
+jandj Godwin Thanks for ur valuable info. I have an other doubt too which is confusing me a lot.. The upcoming Figo is not yet listed in the official website of Ford as future car while the new Endeavour has been listed which is gonna launch after the Figo hatchback.. Does that mean the Figo hatchback will not be launched earlier than the Endeavour?
the website is just an information source, sure the website could have included Figo hatch as addition, but I dont think thats gonna affect the launch, the hatch has already been found testing with 1.5l dct AT, 1.5 Tdci and 1.2 88 ps petrol, the interior quality too has been detoned a little bit to give an drooling price tag, also cud will b safest,most powerful,most efficient,one of best riding,one f most refined,cheapest,spacious hatch in India.
I feel zest is the best.
Something wrong with this guy? He says that the zest is more expensive with a million bucks and finally he says it's the most affordable an the facts on the screen say that it's the cheapest of the lot! And that the Zest's handling is bad over 140?! Do urban commuters even go near that mark? and can the xcent even dream of going above that mark?
we drove zest at 160 flawlessly at sport mode, on city mode 140+ is a bit hard but switch on the sport mode and..........
This is the only reviews I am seeing in Internet saying TATA ZEST is not that good. I feel the dash board scratch shown in ZEST is made by someone then that could be done in any of these compared car :). I feel the reviews is little biased for the new car in the Market. But it does not mean the Aspire is bad also. :)
aspire is awesome and zest is awesome too but odmag has a fashion to give negetive reviews of tata!!!!
Looks like people have lost their minds here. How can anyone possibly say aspire is worst looking car. Guys this not a biased review. I have driven all four cars and aspire comes out on top. If you already have other cars that's not aspire's mistake to come late. The engine is just amazing. Try it .. you will love it
Aspire diesel is 🚀 super car
In earlier reviews Overdrive have used reliability and service issues of Tata Motors as points to try and degrade the Zest and so it is really glaring not to see any mention of Fords rather serious problems with recalls over a rather long period of time.

But again, considering how airbags have been one of the issues for the recalls, 6 or more will not matter unless they work as required. Points to ponder.
Zest is The Best without any doubt, take a long tour and one would realize importance of Zest or Bolt
Any zest lovers❤️
Finally a review that is not biased. If Renuka was reviewing this, Hyundai, Honda or MS would've been the "obvious" winner.
+trippinghard Yeah I am sick of that stupid bitch
Not gonna lie. Of all compact-sedans, the Indigo eCS has the least stubby side-profile. Maybe do a "middle-variant" shootout between DZire VDi, Zest XMS, eCS VX, Amaze SX, Aspire ZXi, and Xcent S. You'll find that the eCS and Zest offer the most features for the money.
btarunr yes sir you are totally right but forgot to mention another point that they also offer higher depreciation along with nightmarish A.S.S. Thank you.
Climb or down ramp/hill safety feature missing in Zest Auto Diesel

Hi guys , help me to figure out . i am confused b/w Figo Aspire and Amaze ( I
I prefer the Zest. The Figo is new to the pack. The zest is better than the rest
Are you sure your drove Zest or was it indica? :P
What a biased review!!!. I know its your job but your job require you to be a better liar than this.
So many 'Tata' fans here...yes surely a biased review..
how much money have you been paid by ford to advertise about this car?? biased biased review
Aspire is the best out of the lot...period
Hyundai xcent is good car as it comes with a complete package in second top variant. Zest too is very nice car but only thing i didnt like was that black plastic on doors and interiors as it gets fade later. Amaze is purely for performance and speed. Aspire too new to comment. Hyundai xcent and Zest are best as of now.
Hai friends I have driven all 4 cars best one is ford aspire 1.5 titanium plus it's just amazing.
Honda amaze also good seating is good for long drives.
Tata zest and hundai Xcent alos good
Milage aspire 1 St. 22.3 kmpl
" amaze 2 nd. 20.6 kmpl
" Xcent 3rd. 21. Kmpl
" zest getting me 18 kmpl 😪
Great review.. Everyone knows Ford figo aspire is the best looking,best performing and the safest in it's segment. They are just in denial. I have driven all of the cars in this segment except for Zest because I don't like taxis,so I think the best in this segment in the aspire.
+Apurv Shukla Taxis?! Seriously? The zest looks more taxi-ish than the dzire?
+Dinesh Venkatasamy Ya actually dzire is more of a taxi but it's the tata's image which somehow indulges us to think whatever tata makes is for commercial use.
bhai kitne paise liye tune maruti se?
You are biased to amaze, aspire is currently the best among three.
Zest is the best... As it gives mileage.. Cheap Spares... Easy repairable and has good Looks with lot of features.. ...
The Reviewer put an opinion.. ZEST is go NO NO on Speed above 140 Km/hr. I would like to ask which road in india.. was he able to ride above 100 Km/hr in India... Even Taj Express has speed limit of 100 Km/hr... Chutiya review
Finally an unbiased review!
i personally didnt lije the zest.. but Im looking forward to the nexon and hexa. i absolutely life the bolt and tiago btw keep it up tata
aspire for sure
best compact sedan.with powerful engine and very less fuel consumption..... I have got one .
nice review
excellent review
Best sedan as it is fully loaded and fuel efficient if we talk about Zest revotron its worst car in terms of gear shifting and average terms...desire is too old and common in market.....amaze is bad in body and interior quality.....so figo aspire rocks in every sense.....so guys go for it........
in comparison test, you missed swift dzire
Completely heartless biased review and comparison...
Zest is the Best... and you know it too.
figo aspire rocks
best compact sedan ever
Juber Parvez ..sir aspire diesel is good r swift dzeir is good
@@jojocivel2462 Aspire diesel is unmatched. Dzire diesel is a puny mouse in front of Aspire TDCI.
I use Tata Zest petrol Revtron is best ❤️
its closer contest between ford aspire and honda amaze
Tata Zest only The best
i've bored watching every comparison with dzire, this one was a SENSIBLE comparison, maruti has the weakest metal on his cars. well am planing to go with figo these time and kindly increase audio level, it was very low.
What about Ford's legendary after sales service ? [sarcasm !!]
ASS is almost as important as all the other things combined in the list .
I am having Ford car. And it's service is awesome. Don't know why people like u hate Ford?
Well deepanshu kelkar , since you have made it personal , for starters lets talk numbers .
1. Dealer network , Ford has 2 authorized service centres in Noida ; and 5 in an area as large as Delhi . Honda has 4 and 35 respectively . Toyota has even better numbers . So what are you going to do when your favourite dealership runs out of spares required for your repair job ? Drive to another city ?
2. Don't take my word for it , Check any car enthusiast website , Carwale and Team-Bhp . The general consensus is that the cars are good , but ASS sucks ass.
+Samrat Roy Honda is no where as pleasurable to drive as ford. test drive the aspire and you immediately realise how superior it is.Numbers you want, well how do 0-100 in under 10s sound? Regarding their service network, it is improving slowly but surely.

American muscle is 💪💪💪winner
sub 4 metre sedan comparison .... compact sedan segment ....
was this review paid... this man didnt did his lessons well... ford is the most underexciting car of the lot and according to him it wins all... just tell how much were u paid by ford --__--
Harshil Yadav 0-100 11.5s most uninspiring naa, when even 100 HP Amaze does it in 13.5 s, best ride/handling balance, safest car, best insulated cabin, best AC, 1 f best audio system, now whats wrong with it,
Indians are fools buying such pathetic Hondas,Suzukis,etc
i agree man i drive zest and ive done 155km tops with complimenting stability. This man he has been sold
rajeev R Drive Aspire b4 commenting BS
Harshil Yadav First of all, 'underexciting' is not a word. Secondly, Ford has always made cars with the best driving manners in India, except for Ecosport. If you don't know that, you are not a car enthusiast and your statement is based out of outright ignorance.
+jandj Godwin In this review 'Aspire' is a clear winner..no doubt..it's fast, known 'Ford's ergonomics and handling', muted cabin and fun to drive car(i would say 'Hoot to drive' ) in this lot..
zest is the most spacious of the lot.. how can be amaze better than than zest.. you're biased..
Nice
All ugly cars, no grace, no class.
Sorry to say this. Really, a biased review with Figo Aspire. Is this car a late entrant with all the bells & whistles.? No..Never... Xest is comparitively a better all round package. Being an Indian, we should be pride in promoting TATA brand. But, over here you are indicating the flaws of the vehicle as closer. Also then please see the conditions of Figo and Fiesta and even Amaze which is having a lot of damages / uneven finishes in the dash and cabin.. Please, expecting a better review next time.. Thank you !!!!
***** You are absolutely nuts to think the Zest is better than Aspire, just test drove the Aspire, I wud say I can compare Aspire with i20 Elite and new 1.5 TDi Polo not any of these pathetic Honda,Hyundai,
Sure Zest is Tatas best effort so far still a far cry from Zest which felt light years better than Zest
***** biased my ass ..
***** Don't know why these guys are so biased with Tata Motors. Zest is one of the best car in it's segment. I have test driven almost all the cars of its segment an finally chose The Zest. Requesting buyers not to go on this biased reviewas and choose wisely after test driving all the cars.
neel181190 I too have driven Zest, and dont get me wrong, its the best Indian car yet but still no way better that the Aspire I test drove yesterday, the Aspire easily outclasses all of its competition in terms of drive,safety,milegae,features too upto an extent, Its not new that a new car beats an already existing car, Tata has more time and more space for improvement, just dont get the personal fanboyism overtake reality
dude!! U r totally wrong. Figo aspire is a much better package than all these cars.
Yes zast bast
Aspire
Dude u sound biased...aspire has the worst looks...common b real man !!
***** Dude, please go and get ur eyes checked by an opticianist.
Ankit Issar.....go and set fire to your eyes.....aspire has best looks
the pro tata guys should b shocked to fin a naturally aspirated i10 produces more power that the turbocharged, now that's pathetic.any bajaj single silender engine sounds refined than nano,which was super dooper flop.BTW even this shit was developed with assistance from Bosch, wtf.check TH-cam videos.
Is this guy speaking truth?
bekaar comparison.. whos that guy🤔
really a biased one
aspire is worst looking car and interior is copy of ecosport. What is so premium in it
Get ur eyes checked by a good optician.
+deepanshu kelkar hope he really don't have eyes
+deepanshu kelkar do you own Aspire?
zest super cad
if someone doubts the ford's driving system,......dude you seriously are illiterate in terms of automotive knowledge....!!! its renowned in world....and if you dont like it....its you who are the mistake....!!!
This is a biased review. Aspire has the worst interior quality and the door shuts like belonging to 80's car.
gaurav nagal U r absurd, Aspire is the best sub 4m compact sedan I ve ever driven, sure its not as good as Polo, Jazz, I 20 ELite still the closest to them out f all sub 4m cars
+jandj Godwin Dude due u know when the new Figo hatchback 2015 will be launched?
Ramakrishnan Ramki October 15 or November 1st week, probably by last week of October itself, also the smart news is that the new Figo hatch might become the most fuel efficient hatch ever made in India, probably it will hit 27+ kmpl ARAI certified mileage
Despite this it will have more power comfort space than the ever popular Swift and better stock audio system and more importantly at least 30000 RS cheaper than Swift variant to variant, after all this even if people are going blind for Suzuki and some plastic pathetic Hyundais, there is no point, its the Indian mind set thats at stake
+jandj Godwin Thanks for ur valuable info. I have an other doubt too which is confusing me a lot.. The upcoming Figo is not yet listed in the official website of Ford as future car while the new Endeavour has been listed which is gonna launch after the Figo hatchback.. Does that mean the Figo hatchback will not be launched earlier than the Endeavour?
the website is just an information source, sure the website could have included Figo hatch as addition, but I dont think thats gonna affect the launch,
the hatch has already been found testing with 1.5l dct AT, 1.5 Tdci and 1.2 88 ps petrol,
the interior quality too has been detoned a little bit to give an drooling price tag,
also cud will b safest,most powerful,most efficient,one of best riding,one f most refined,cheapest,spacious hatch in India.
with TATA Zest, at least u should have had those number plates screwed properly...... what an ugly look
Worst review ever and why the hell are you comparing diesels??? Diesel is dead!!!!
This is a crap metal box
Dzire=taxi car..amaze= boring design,, tata=commercial car 😋😝😝,ford = musle car,,👍,,oh i forgot xcent never mind ...
