Tata Motors on Saturday rolled out a new variant of the Indica, the Indica Vista, at a function at the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Mumbai. 

Indica Vista comes with a 24 months (75,000 km) warranty and will be available in seven colours through 170 dealers across the country. The car is being launched in seven variants priced at Rs.3.49 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi) for the 1.2L petrol Safire and Rs.4.88 lakh for the 1.3L Quadrajet. 

Speaking on the occasion, Ratan N. Tata, Chairman of Tata Motors, said, "The second generation Indica Vista showcases the progress Tata Motors has made over the last several years of its first outing in the passenger car business in design, quality, technology, performance and refinement. I have no doubt that our existing and potential customers will find the new Indica Vista a significant step up over the previous generation and in line with other world class offerings in the market. The company is greatly appreciative of the endorsement by the market of our first Indica offering and I am very hopeful that the Indica Vista will surpass its predecessor in appeal."

The Indica Vista has undergone a complete makeover. A new skin makes up the new interior. At nearly 3.8m in length and 1.7m width, the car has a wheel base of 2470mm. A new central character line on the hood, sharp crease lines on the door below the beltline, a honeycomb grille and striking petal shaped headlamps give it a distinctly unique look.
The interiors have the instrument cluster at the centre of the dashboard to enhance passenger involvement and improve visibility.

A dual tone grey and beige interior with a pleasing soft feel grain structure on the top end version gives the car a premium touch. A two DIN CD System with a USB port and remote control enables music to be customised to one's needs.

The car is powered by a range of internationally acclaimed powertrains - the new 75 bhp 1.3L Quadrajet Common Rail Diesel engine and the 65bhp, 1.2L CVCP Safire MPFI petrol engine being manufactured at the new Fiat-Tata joint venture at Ranjangaon in Maharashtra. The Safire has a continuous variable cam phaser for improved drivability and fuel economy and a drive by wire technology for accelerator pedal control. Both engines are mated to a new cable aided gearbox with twin synchronisers for precise shift feel and quality. It also has the option of the existing 1.4L turbocharged intercooled TDi engine which has been refined further and mated to a smooth shift gearbox.

The Indica Vista's height adjustable driver's seat and the tilt-adjustable steering wheel allows better driving posture. Utility space in the floor console under the seat and the deep glove box, which can accommodate a laptop, give that extra space when needed. Tubeless tyres, a new twist beam suspension, gas filled shock absorbers, a sub-frame construction for enhanced transverse stiffness give enhanced driving comfort. The body has a higher use of high strength steel panels for enhanced torsional and bending stiffness.
