Tata Manza
(View All Models)18th-Oct-2011: In response to the lower excise duty on sub-four meter cars, Tata Motors is set to roll out a shortened version of its entry-level sedan Tata Manza. Tata Manza Compact Sedan christened as Tata Manza CS can be launched by the end of this year or early 2012. Presently, Tata Manza price ranges from Rs 5.44 lakh-Rs 7.72 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). With the squeezed version Tata Manza CS, the company will be in a position to cut down the price significantly by Rs. 30,000 to 40,000 compared to its longer counterpart. It is most likely that this ‘CS’ version of the Manza will be launched in 1.4-litre SAFIRE and 1.3-litre Quadrajet engines. The new car will have more rear seat leg-room and a larger boot than the latter owing to the longer wheelbase than the Vista by 50mm. Tata Manza CS will be on the same platform as the Manza sedan and the exteriors will more or less be same in design. The interiors of Manza CS will largely remain same with some downgrades possible on base variants to keep the pricing competitive.

Tata Motors has displayed the Tata Manza Nova concept and the Manza hybrid concept at the 2012 Auto Expo. By the looks of it, Tata Motors could use either of the concepts for the new Tata Manza edition in this year, though the market experts seem to betting high on the Nova concept than on the hybrid version, which is no less by any means, fraught with some extraordinary features this time. As a part of the new Tata Indigo Manza concept, an all new Spanish tan color and the alloy wheels are all we can see no matter how closely we look at it.

Following the trend, Tata Motors could launch the new Tata Manza right in 2012. But, the question is whether Tata will adopt the posh looks of the Tata Manza hybrid displayed at the Auto Expo or will the auto major be more inclined towards the Tata Manza Nova concept showcased alongside. The two models are out and out deviation from each other while one carries the looks of the next generation model, on the other hand Nova concept is more down to earth sticking to the Tata’s design philosophy more practically fraught with the features essential to the customers.
