About

The Tata Indica eV2 Diesel LE is a testament to Tata Motors early foray into the Indian hatchback market. Launched in 2011, it builds upon the original Indicas formula of offering a spacious cabin, a frugal motor, and a low sticker price. The vehicle is powered by a 1.4-litre diesel engine producing 70PS of power and 140Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. It features a comfortable ride quality, especially at low speeds, and ample interior space that can accommodate five occupants comfortably. The car also comes with basic features like power steering, air conditioning, and keyless entry. However, it lacks modern safety features and has a dated design, which might deter some buyers. Despite these limitations, the Indica eV2 remains a reliable and practical choice for those seeking a budget-friendly, fuel-efficient vehicle.

Our take on this /// Verdict

The Tata Indica eV2 Diesel LE, while being a reliable and spacious option, shows its age in several critical areas. The engine, though fuel-efficient with an ARAI-certified mileage of 25 kmpl, feels underpowered on highways, making it more suitable for intra-city commutes. The lack of essential safety features like ABS and airbags is a significant drawback. However, its comfortable low-speed ride quality, generous interior space, and affordable price make it a viable choice for those prioritizing practicality and economy over modern amenities and safety standards. Despite its limitations, the Indica eV2 remains a no-nonsense workhorse, but it is hard to recommend it over more contemporary and better-equipped options available in the market.

Price

The Tata Indica eV2 Diesel LE is priced in the range of Rs 5.13 lakh to Rs 5.61 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi). When you factor in the on-road costs, including registration, insurance, and other taxes, the price can go up to around Rs 6.5 lakh to Rs 7 lakh, depending on the state and local taxes. Given its age and the features it offers, the Indica eV2 is positioned as a budget-friendly option. However, considering the discounts often available, such as those worth more than Rs 50,000, it can be a good value-for-money proposition for those looking for a basic, reliable vehicle without breaking the bank.
