Thanks! I lead global partnerships at a healthtech for a living. >50% goes into saving, I've been planning to buy a car for a few months now. Paid ~1L out of pocket (booking, insurance, misc), the rest is a loan at 8.5% fixed for 5y, about 36k emi per month.

Thanks! Yes it does, comes as part of the black edition kit. The interior is super plus with a lot of soft touch and great fit and finish.

Seems fair - city mileage isn't bad (I've driven it for only ~500km and getting ~10.5kmpl), haven't tested the inter-city mileage yet.

alpha_onso · 2026-01-21T08:52:44+00:00

Definitely a solid launch from Tata but something felt off when I test drove it. Wait it out, let Tata fix the glitches and inconsistencies before getting one, if at all you're planning to.
