Tata Zest (2016)

Monday, 22 July 2024 05:35 AM A 2016 Tata Zest owner recently shared their experience of frequent breakdowns, which were finally resolved after replacing the engine wiring harness. The car had been experiencing issues such as the engine dying in slow-moving traffic and during cold starts, but these problems seem to have been addressed. I think this highlights the importance of thorough diagnostics and the right repairs.

Monday, 20 May 2024 10:56 AM Another owner of a 2016 Tata Zest XMS petrol reported crossing 80,000 kilometers and facing several mechanical issues, including the engine dying randomly. After multiple replacements of parts like the fuel pump, spark plugs, and ignition coil, the problem was finally solved by replacing the engine wiring harness. This shows the resilience of the vehicle despite maintenance challenges.

Monday, 01 April 2019 01:11 PM Following the launch of the Tata Tigor in 2017, the Tata Zest was discontinued for private purchase and was only available for taxi services. It was eventually permanently discontinued in April 2019, having sold nearly 1.5 lakh units during its production run. I think this transition was part of Tatas strategy to refresh their product lineup.

Monday, 31 October 2016 04:13 AM In 2016, the Tata Zest received a mixed safety rating from Global NCAP, with the version without airbags and ABS scoring 0 stars for adult occupants and 1 star for toddlers. However, the version with 2 airbags and no ABS scored 4 stars for adult occupants and 2 stars for toddlers. This highlighted the need for better safety features in Indian vehicles.
