About

The Tata Bolt XE is a 5-seater hatchback that offers a blend of modern features and traditional Tata strengths. It comes with a 1.2-litre turbocharged Revotron petrol engine or a 1.3-litre Quadrajet diesel motor, both mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The XE variant, while being the base model, still includes essential features like air conditioning, power steering, body-colored bumpers, and turn indicators integrated into the ORVMs. It also boasts a spacious interior with excellent rear-seat legroom, a smooth and quiet ride, and good ground clearance. The Bolt XE lacks some premium features found in higher variants, such as the touchscreen infotainment system and automatic climate control, but it remains a solid choice for those seeking a reliable, comfortable, and feature-rich hatchback.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Tata Bolt XE is a significant improvement over its predecessors, such as the Indica and Vista, and it marks a positive shift in Tatas design and technological approach. While it may not be a revolutionary car, it certainly stands out in its segment with its spacious interior, comfortable ride, and feature-packed cabin. The absence of an automatic transmission and some minor issues with rear suspension and storage space are notable drawbacks. However, the Bolt XEs strengths, including its rear-seat legroom, safety features like ABS and dual airbags in higher variants, and the intuitive ConnectNext infotainment system, make it a compelling choice. Overall, its a solid option for those seeking a practical and comfortable hatchback without breaking the bank.

Price

The Tata Bolt XE is priced competitively in the Indian market, with the ex-showroom price starting at around Rs. 5.25 lakh in Delhi. When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other taxes, the price can go up to around Rs. 6.5 lakh to Rs. 7 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. This pricing makes the Bolt XE an attractive option in the B-segment, offering a good balance of features, space, and performance at a reasonable cost. The value for money is one of the key selling points, especially when compared to its competitors like the Maruti Suzuki Swift and Hyundai Grand i10.

Latest Updates

Friday, 15 February 2019 05:47 PM Tata Motors has been offering various discounts and exchange bonuses on the Tata Bolt, including the 2018 and 2019 models. This move is aimed at boosting sales and clearing out inventory. The XE Diesel variant, priced at Rs. 6.58 Lakh, is particularly popular for its 22.95 kmpl mileage. I think these offers make the Bolt an even more attractive option in the competitive hatchback segment.

Tuesday, 10 March 2015 10:16 AM The Tata Bolts infotainment system, powered by Harman, includes a touchscreen interface and voice commands, which are rare features in its segment. The XE model also includes steering-mounted audio controls and speed-dependent volume control. I believe this advanced infotainment system adds a premium touch to the Bolt.

Tuesday, 20 January 2015 10:59 AM In terms of design, the Tata Bolt boasts projector headlamps and a sleek exterior design, making it a stylish option in its class. The XE model is available in five colors: Venetian Red, Pristine White, Platinum Silver, Sky Grey, and Titanium Grey. I think the Bolts design is one of its strongest points, appealing to a wide range of buyers.

Thursday, 01 January 2015 11:56 AM The Tata Bolt, launched in January 2015, has been a significant player in the B-segment hatchback market in India. The base model, XE Petrol, starts at Rs. 5.25 Lakh and comes with a 1193cc engine producing 89 bhp @ 5000 rpm. This model is known for its manual transmission and a mileage of 17.57 kmpl. I believe the XE Petrol offers great value for its price, making it a compelling choice for budget-conscious buyers.

Monday, 14 July 2014 10:07 PM The Tata Bolt features advanced safety features such as ABS with EBD and dual front airbags, which are significant selling points in the Indian market. The XE variants also come with keyless entry, digital odometer, and air conditioner, enhancing the overall driving experience. I believe these safety and comfort features set the Bolt apart from its competitors.

Mileage

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 05:30 PM The mileage of the Tata Bolt XE is a crucial factor for many buyers, and it delivers decently in this regard. The petrol variant of the Bolt XE offers an ARAI-certified mileage of 17.57 kmpl, while the diesel variant provides an impressive 22.95 kmpl. In real-world conditions, you can expect the petrol to give around 12-14 kmpl in city driving and up to 16 kmpl on highways, while the diesel should offer around 18-20 kmpl in city driving and up to 24 kmpl on highways. This makes the Bolt XE a viable choice for those concerned about running costs.
