    Step inside and you will see minor changes that include an infotainment system with navigation, a new storage space is also visible on the central deck of the dashboard. There is a lot of part sharing on the inside like the steering wheel, but the instrument cluster is drastically changed over the current one. It now gets a large dial in the center for speedometer, while the rev counter is just a little strip on the left of the dial, it is more digital with lot of info like battery charge level-as it gets regenerative braking.

    Under the hood, the car won’t see a massive bump in power, but one could expect more mileage, courtesy to the dual jet system and regenerative braking coupled to the same 1.2-litre petrol with a higher compression ratio. The car is rated at a decent 91 PS@6000rpm of power and gets a 3Nm of torque rise that make up for 118 Nm @4400rpm. The upcoming Tata Zica features a 1.2-liter Revotron, 3-cylinder 4 valve MPFi petrol engine, capable of producing 85PS @6000rpm and 114Nm of peak torque @3500rpm.
