Our Verdict

Expert opinion and recommendation

The Tata Zest XMS Petrol is a well-rounded compact sedan that offers a blend of comfort, performance, and features, making it a compelling choice in its segment. Transitioning from older models like the Maruti Zen, the Zest stands out with its improved build quality and solid exterior construction. The cars balanced suspension provides a compliant ride quality, especially on bad roads, though it may exhibit a bit of boat mode on extremely rough terrain. The 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine delivers linear power and almost non-existent turbo lag, enhancing the driving experience. However, the interior, while spacious and comfortable, feels a bit dated with hard plastics and a lack of storage spaces. The 8-speaker audio system and automatic climate control are notable positives. Overall, the Zest XMS Petrol is a value-for-money option, especially for those prioritizing comfort and a feature-rich package.

Latest Updates

Recent news and announcements

The Tata Zest XMS, a popular variant of the Zest, has been discontinued by Tata Motors as part of their broader strategy to phase out older models. This move comes after the Zest failed to meet the new BS6 emission norms. The last known price for the XMS variant was around Rs. 7.21 lakh. I think this is a significant step for Tata to focus on newer, more compliant models.
January 1, 2020
Tata Motors rolled out various offers on the Zest, including the XMS variant, in April, valid until the end of the month. These offers included benefits worth over Rs 50,000, making the vehicle more attractive to potential buyers. Such offers were common during festive seasons or to clear inventory. I think these offers helped in boosting sales temporarily.
May 1, 2019
Tata Motors launched the Zest Premio Edition, which is positioned between the XMS and XT variants. The Premio Edition, available only with the diesel engine, starts at Rs. 7.53 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) and includes additional features like a touchscreen infotainment system with phone-based navigation. This edition was a strategic move to enhance the Zests appeal before its eventual discontinuation. I believe these additions made the Premio a compelling choice in its segment.
March 6, 2018
The Tata Zest XMS Quadrajet 75PS Diesel variant was known for its balanced set of features, including central locking, ABS, power steering, and all power windows. This variant also came with a 1.3-litre diesel engine producing 73PS and 190Nm of torque, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The XMS Quadrajet was a favorite among those seeking a blend of performance and comfort. I think the engines torque made it quite driveable in city conditions.
February 14, 2018
In terms of safety, the Tata Zest XMS scored a respectable four-star rating in the Global NCAP crash test. This was a significant achievement, highlighting Tatas focus on safety features such as dual front airbags, ABS with EBD, and seat belts with pre-tensioner and load limiter. This rating boosted consumer confidence in the vehicle. I believe safety should always be a top priority, and Tata did well here.

Mileage

Fuel efficiency information

The Tata Zest XMS Petrol offers a mileage of 17.57 kmpl, as per ARAI certification. In real-world conditions, you can expect this figure to be slightly lower, around 14-16 kmpl, depending on driving habits and road conditions. This mileage is respectable for a petrol-powered compact sedan, making it a viable choice for those concerned about running costs. While it may not be the most fuel-efficient option in its class, the Zests overall package and performance make it a balanced choice.
