Our take on this /// Verdict

The Chevrolet Tavera Neo 3 is a significant improvement over its predecessor, primarily due to the new common-rail turbo-diesel engine. This engine brings a marked increase in refinement, responsiveness, and performance, making it much more enjoyable to drive. It accelerates to 100kph in 17 seconds, a full 8 seconds faster than the old model, and its part-throttle responses are particularly impressive. However, the vehicle still has its limitations it is not designed for aggressive cornering and exhibits noticeable body roll. The interior, while functional, lacks the appeal of its competitors and feels somewhat dated. Despite this, the Tavera Neo 3 excels as a people-mover, offering a comfortable ride and robust suspension. If priced competitively, it could be a compelling choice for those needing a reliable and spacious vehicle.

Price

The Chevrolet Tavera Neo 3 is priced in the range of 6.83 lakh to 10.12 lakh ex-showroom in India. On-road prices can vary depending on the state and local taxes, but you can expect to add around 1-2 lakh to the ex-showroom price. For instance, in major cities, the on-road price could range from approximately 8 lakh to 12 lakh. This pricing makes the Tavera Neo 3 a competitive option in the multi-utility vehicle segment, especially considering its enhanced performance and comfort features. However, the final cost will depend on various factors including insurance, registration, and any additional accessories or features.

Latest Updates

Friday, 16 November 2012 05:31 AM The Chevrolet Tavera Neo 3, launched in 2012, featured a new 2.0-litre TCDi diesel engine, compliant with BS IV emissions norms, replacing the older 2.5-litre turbo-diesel engine. This new engine provided better refinement, lower emissions, and improved fuel efficiency. I think this move was crucial for GM to stay competitive in the Indian market.

Saturday, 17 November 2012 12:22 AM The Tavera Neo 3 was praised for its improved performance and drive quality, particularly in part-throttle responses, which made it satisfyingly responsive to drive. However, it had a flat spot between 2000 and 3000 rpm in third gear, which was a minor drawback. I believe this balance of performance and responsiveness was a key selling point.

Friday, 16 November 2012 03:33 PM Despite its improvements, the Tavera Neo 3 still had some limitations, such as interiors that were not as appealing as those of its competitors and a somewhat old design. However, its hardiness and ability as a people-mover made it a strong contender in its segment. I think it remained a solid choice for those prioritizing practicality.

Thursday, 22 March 2012 12:24 AM General Motors India introduced the Tavera Neo 3 with significant upgrades, including a stylish exterior with a new grille, larger headlamps, and dual-tone body color combinations. The interior also saw improvements with a premium look, featuring a beige and dark grey combination and soft-feel cashmere upholstery. I believe these design changes made the Tavera more appealing to both personal and business users.
