After having the most compact sedan, Indigo CS reign the Indian roads for almost two years, Tata Motors has let out yet another mid-size segment car in the country. The Indigo e-CS has been built on the company's existing Indigo platform and comes as a successor to the Indigo CS with a host of exciting features. Tata Motors claims that the Indigo e-CS which has already entered the streets with a fresh benchmark is the most fuel efficient sedan in India. Both petrol and diesel variants of the e-CS comply with the new BS IV emission norms.
Along with an upgrade in the engine, the Indigo e-CS gets some fresh new look on the exteriors with an all-new front grille, headlamps, and ORVM with blinkers. The new features coupled with the existing ones make the Indigo e-CS absolutely stunning and a head turner. The car comes in a range of four colours as 2 variants: the MPFI petrol base eGLS version, and the top-end eLX version of the CR4 diesel.
The Indigo CS is offered in 12 variants including the e-CS, LE, LS, LS DiCOR, LX TDI, and LX DiCOR in diesel and GLE, GLS, and GLX in petrol. The petrol variants come equipped with a 64 bhp 1.2-litre multi-point fuel injection in-line 4 engine and the diesel variants get either a 1.4-litre turbocharged or same size DiCOR diesel engine that delivers an output of 69 bhp. With minimal engine noise and vibration, the performance of the sedan is acceptable. All variants come with a 5-speed manual transmission.
The wheelbase of the Indigo CS is exactly the same as its parent model Indigo sedan and as such the ride quality of both the cars is nearly the same. The independent front and rear McPherson strut suspension systems ensure a smooth ride even on tough roads. The reduced length of the Indigo CS makes parking easy and city driving more enjoyable.
The exterior is adorned by a classy chrome grille, body coloured bumpers (LS, GLS and LS DiCOR) and black bumpers (LE and GLE), well positioned dual-beam headlights and taillight cluster. All variants ride on the 14"steel wheels with 165/65 R14 radial tires (LE and GLE) and 175/65 R14 radial tires (LS and GLS). The LS and GLS get full wheel covers.
The interior gives a good feel that's typical of C segment sedans. The petrol and diesel versions get unique interior trim options. Petrol variants are available with quite beige interiors whereas the diesel variants get sporty black upholstery. The steering wheel has a sporty look and the gear shift knob is leather-wrapped. Power steering comes only with the higher end LS and GLS variants. The instrument cluster comes with a very useful light intensity adjustment feature.
The partial fabric covered seats on the Indigo CS are quite comfortable. The front seats, being anti-submarine type, keep the driver and front passenger from sliding forward in case of hard braking or minor road accidents. The double folding backrest on the rear seat offers additional luggage space. The air conditioning system on the car is quite powerful. Higher-end LS and GLS variants get a more efficient HVAC (Heating, Ventilation and AC) system.
The new Tata Indigo e-CS has got a variety of new interior and exterior features. While the exterior is now adorned with a new front grill with a satin finish, there are new headlamps and ORVM too. Enhancing the look of the new sedan are body coloured bumpers and chrome inserts on the rub rails. The new Indigo e-CS also gets new white alloy wheels. The new sedan gives you a plush feel with its dual tone beige interior and dashboard. Also featuring are a new Bluetooth enabled music system and electrical controls for ORVMs.
