The much awaited DC TCA Supercar was recently unveiled at Auto Expo 2018. Dilip Chhabria, the man behind this design, has done a fabulous job as TCA feels more proportionate when compared to DC Avanti. The name TCA used here stands for Titanium, Carbon and Aluminum.
This mid engine sports car is inspired from Laferrari and Pagani Zonda in some terms. DC will start manufacturing the same in October 2018 while production is limited to just 299 units. Each unit will be personally signed by Dilip Chhabria. TCA is lower, wider and much more powerful when compared to DC Avanti.

Surprisingly, it is priced at INR 39 lakh (ex-showroom) and takes almost 4.5 seconds to reach 100 kmph from standstill. TCA is powered by a 3.8L, V6 petrol motor producing 320 HP of maximum power. The engine comes mated to a 6-speed automatic gearbox. 60 units out of the 299 examples have already been booked.
DC has not detailed the interior specifications for TCA and even no details regarding the safety features were given till date. Last time, they even missed on the airbags from Avanti and came under spotlight for choosing luxury wrapped interior over basic safety feature.
