Our take on this /// Verdict

The Tata Indica V2 DLS Turbo, although discontinued, still holds a special place for those who value reliability, spaciousness, and fuel efficiency. My experience with this vehicle highlights its strengths in city driving and long trips, particularly its ability to handle hilly terrain with ease due to its good torque. However, the engine can feel sluggish on highways, and the lack of modern safety features like ABS and airbags is a significant drawback. Despite these limitations, the Indica V2 Turbo remains a sturdy and comfortable car, making it a viable option for those prioritizing practicality and low maintenance costs.

Price

The Tata Indica V2 DLS Turbo was priced in the range of Rs. 3.73 lakh to Rs. 4.62 lakh ex-showroom in New Delhi. When considering the on-road price, you would need to add costs such as road tax, insurance, and registration, which could push the total to around Rs. 4.5 lakh to Rs. 5.5 lakh. Given its features and performance, this price point was competitive in its time, offering a good balance of value and functionality. However, since the model has been discontinued, buyers would need to explore the used car market, where prices can vary widely based on the cars condition and mileage.

Thursday, 21 November 2024 07:19 PM The Tata Indica V2 DLS Turbo, known for its diesel efficiency, was priced between Rs. 3.78 lakh to Rs. 4.28 lakh in its various variants. This model was popular for its fuel efficiency, with an ARAI-certified mileage of 14.2 km/l. However, it lacked advanced safety features like ABS and airbags. I think this was a significant oversight, given the importance of safety in modern vehicles.

Thursday, 04 August 2022 02:31 PM The Tata Indica V2 DLS Turbo was part of a significant milestone for Tata Motors, as it was one of the first Indian hatchbacks to popularize diesel engines in the mass market. This move helped establish Tata as a major player in the Indian automotive industry. I believe this was a game-changing strategy for the company.

Thursday, 04 August 2022 07:20 AM The vehicles design, though dated, was initially praised for its muscular and unique look, especially when it was launched in 1998. However, by the time the V2 Turbo was introduced, the design had started to show its age. I think the design was innovative for its time but lacked the sleekness of later models.

Thursday, 26 June 2014 07:27 PM Despite its age, the Indica V2 DLS Turbo retained a loyal customer base, particularly among taxi operators, due to its spacious cabin, low maintenance costs, and fuel efficiency. However, the lack of modern features and safety equipment was a drawback. I believe its durability and cost-effectiveness were key factors in its longevity.
