It's a great car - a full blown sedan with loads of space and some very enticing engine options that include not only a sweet 1.4 litre petrol mill, but also the awesome 1.3 litre Quadrajet diesel.
But there's something about the Indigo Manza that's even better than the powerplant and the space, in fact, better than the whole car itself - it's the price tag! Tata Motors launched the car today and has caused quite a bit of a stir with the entry level Aqua variant with the Safire90 petrol engine costing only Rs 4.8 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi)! From there to the top of the line Indigo Manza, the car is offered in four variants - the others being the Aura, Aura ABS and the Aura+. Buyers will have the option of choosing between the Safire90 petrol engine and the Quadrajet90 diesel engine for each of the four variants with the top of the line Aura+ Quadrajet90 variant priced at just Rs 6.75 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
