        Best value.
        I'm driving this car for 4 years. Honestly, I must say the best money value because 25 km mileage @ 70 km/hr, 23 km mileage @ 80 km/h, 20 km @ 100+ km/hr. As compared to others, Zest has more space and comfort and is safer. Driving Zest is more enjoyable. Zest has a 1st class music system and low maintenance as well.

        An Awesome Car For Middle Class - Tata Zest
        I have never seen such an awesome car in this price segment much harder material is used compared to other carmakers like Maruti, Hyundai, Toyota etc, Best in safety with Harman music system in this price segment, is an awesome thing, moreover colour variants are awesome with buzz blue as exceptional, ride quality is too comfortable, can drive 500 km without any problem, vehicle cooling system is awesome, 5 stars for engine cooling system.

        Best Compact sedan.
        I am using TATA ZEST XM for 5 years now. Driven 27900km and the car is almost like New till today. Average mileage is around 13 km.50% city and 50% highway driving. Changed battery once after 4 years. Tyres will go for another 5 to 7 thousand km. Driving is a pleasure, music system is pure magic and space and comfort is top class. I have used Maruti 800 for 5 years, Santro zing XL for 6 years and Ford Figo petrol for 3 years. But ZEST is superior on all counts. Apart from being the best designed compact sedan, with a little refinement in the engine and gearbox, this could be the Best Compact Sedan of INDIA.
