Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Tata Zest
- Expansive feature list: projector headlamps, daytime running lamps, 8-speaker audio system - the lot!
- Refined petrol and torquey diesel engines. Take your pick!
- Ample legroom and shoulder room for rear occupants. Boot space is a healthy 390-litres as well.
- Ride quality is among the best in its class. 170mm of ground clearance means you can be slightly careless on broken roads.
Toyota Yaris
- Segment-first features: roof-mounted rear AC vents with ambient lighting, 60:40 split folding rear seats, front parking sensors, acoustic and vibration control glass, solar energy-absorbing windshield with infrared cut off, infotainment system with air gesture control and rear wheel disc brakes.
- Class-leading ride comfort. Manages bad roads and high speed undulations brilliantly, even with a full passenger load.
- Premium interior quality. Feels like you’re in a car from a segment above
- Easy to use and refined petrol engine. CVT available right from base variant.
- Standard safety includes 7 airbags, ABS with EBD, brake assist and ISOFIX. Higher variants add tyre pressure warning, hill-start assist, front parking sensors and more!
- Cavernous 476-litre boot with folding rear seats. Will easily accommodate the family’s luggage.

Tata Zest
- Hard plastics used inside the cabin. Takes away from the premium experience.
- Lack of storage spaces in the interior
- The automatic variant lacks creep mode. Needs manual throttle inputs to get going.
Toyota Yaris
- No diesel engine available, period.
- Not a very wide car. Etios has a greater sense of space and can seat 3 in the back with more ease.
- Few feature misses: Reach-adjustable steering, auto-dimming IRVM, LED headlights, sunroof, vanity mirror illumination.
- Infotainment system looks aftermarket. Glares under harsh sunlight. Misses out on Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
