The Tata Indica has evolved over the years to become what it is today. The Vista that was born in 2008 but the new Indica Vista introduced earlier this year is a big step in the right direction.
At the front of the new Vista, the elongated, semi-circular headlamps now feature the same three-barrelled reflector design that the Tata Manza has. There are a lot of chrome elements all around, re-confirming that we Indians are still madly in love with this finish.At the rear, the most prominent new addition in the Indica Vista is a new black, mirror-polished tailgate garnish at the bottom of the rear glass. Steering mounted audio controls, under seat tray, electrically adjustable door mirrors, height adjustable driver's seat and an illuminated key-hole ring to make it easy to find in the dark are some of the features in the new Indica Vista.
The change agents here are the larger brake booster and the much improved clutch.Indica Vista Quadrajet, fitted with the same 4-cylinder, common rail diesel engine. Developing a peak output of 75 PS and peak torque of 190Nm, this engine, like the other three on offer – the Safire 65 and Safire 90 petrol.
