How does Indiva V2 Diesel Turbo(TC) Performs?

Question

How's the Vehicle overall? wht are it's advantages and disadvantages? Wht else can be done on it to make it more appealing ?

Answer 1

You mean the indiCa turbo (there is no indiva yet).
This is very similar to the second version of the Indica Diesel - Good legroom, decent boot space (like a conventional hatchback). The problems are with the fit and finish and long term reliability.

The Turbo (taken from the indigo) addresses the biggest problem with the original diesel i.e the lack of power. Do remember that till the turbo kicks in at 2500+ RPM, the car still drives very sluggishly like the original Indica. If you've not driven diesels before, you will find this hard to get used to.

Now what can you do to make it more appealing?. Tata's screwed a perfectly good original design when they released the V2 with the new bumper and side trim. This looks UGLY. Unfortunately they have retained this in the turbo (The original italian styling was still found in the Indigo and Marina until recently, though even this has now been changed to something absolutely UGLY).

You cannot remove the trim and change the bumper (to the old design) as this would entail a fair amount of tin work. The best that you can do is pick a sporty colour (Black works better than that grotesque red), and add alloy wheels. Fortunately it already comes with 14" wheels. You could ask for the wider tyres of the Indigo to be fitted (the steering is anyway very soft).

If Diesel is not a necessity, and you are still looking for a low cost tata car, check out the Xeta. You get a smoother engine and drive, more power, all at a lower cost.
