Tata Vista Concept S2 (2010) Updates

Tuesday, 02 October 2012 06:54 AM The Tata Vista Concept S2s interior was designed with performance driving in mind, featuring a sports steering wheel, aluminum pedals, and Sparco bucket seats. The black interior with red accents added to the sporty and racy feel of the vehicle. This attention to detail made the car stand out from its standard counterpart.

Tuesday, 02 October 2012 07:54 PM Despite the cosmetic changes, the Vista Concept S2 still lacked some excitement as a true sports machine. The changes, while practical, made the car look more like a production-ready version rather than a concept. I think Tata could have pushed the boundaries further to make it more appealing to enthusiasts.

Tuesday, 02 October 2012 05:53 AM The engine of the Vista Concept S2 was a highlight, with a TurboCharged 1.4 liter MPFI petrol engine producing 140 PS. This was a significant upgrade from the standard Fiat 1.4 liter, 95 PS Saffire engine. The performance potential of this engine was something that performance junkies would have loved to see in a production car.

Tuesday, 02 October 2012 03:00 PM The Vista Concept S2s design changes included the removal of the prominent chin and the replacement of large air scoops with fog lamps. The rear bumper was also modified, but the overall design remained close to the standard Vista. This made the Concept S2 look like a feasible souped-up version of the standard car.

Tuesday, 02 October 2012 06:28 AM The Tata Vista Concept S2 was well-received for its sporty and racy interior design, but the exterior changes were met with mixed reviews. While the idea of eye lids on the headlamps was appreciated, the execution was not considered tasteful.

Wednesday, 18 January 2012 09:03 PM The Tata Vista Concept S2, showcased at the 2012 Auto Expo, underwent significant cosmetic changes from its 2010 version. The bold yellow color was replaced, and the large air scoops at the front gave way to fog lamps enclosed in a large grill. The rear diffuser and faux twin exhausts were also removed, making the design more practical and closer to the standard Vista. The car featured large 8-spoke alloys and a sporty interior with a black and red theme, including a sports steering wheel, aluminum pedals, and Sparco bucket seats.

Wednesday, 18 January 2012 11:02 PM At the 2012 Auto Expo, Tata Motors revealed the Vista Concept S2 with a TurboCharged 1.4 liter MPFI petrol engine, producing 140 PS. This engine was based on Fiat’s 1.4 liter, 95 PS Saffire engine and was paired with a 5-speed manual C510 gearbox. The gear ratios were adjusted to enhance the sporty feel of the vehicle. I think this engine upgrade was a significant step towards making the Vista more appealing to performance enthusiasts.

Wednesday, 18 January 2012 04:15 PM The Tata Vista Concept S2 retained some of its sporty elements from the 2010 version but toned down the aggressive design. The headlamps now featured eye lids, although the execution was not particularly impressive. The interior maintained a sporty theme with black and red accents, which was a welcome change from the standard beige treatment.

Tuesday, 05 January 2010 08:43 AM In 2010, the Vista Sports concept made its debut at the Auto Expo, featuring a bold yellow paint job, large air scoops at the front, a diffuser at the rear, and faux twin exhausts. These elements gave the car a radical and sporty look, though the twin exhausts seemed like an afterthought.

Tuesday, 05 January 2010 04:56 PM The Vista Sports concept of 2010 was part of Tata Motors effort to showcase its design skills and appeal to the performance segment. The concept was later refined and rechristened as the Concept S2 by 2012, with a more practical and production-ready design. I believe this evolution showed Tatas commitment to balancing design and practicality.
