Tslking about TATA Indigo grande Xl,an A3 segment car launched by TATA Motors some 1-2 years ago look more like a fusion of Merceded and Maruti Omni....strange but true. The boot space in the rear seats is awesome,very big in its class much like that of a benz but to increase that, they have cut short a lot on driving comfartibility as the bott space in the front is very less much like that of an omni where the steraing and the front seat almost feels like kissing each other
One of the other drawback is the flat roof structure which gives it a very blunt look as compared to the curved roofs in most of the A3 segment cars that sets it aback among its competitors.
In short,TATA Indigo grande is a 'stretched' version of TATA Indica as is the child has grown in heights but yes the engine is awesome,greatttttt performance,pickup.The technicalities have been very well taken into consideration but its design is what holds it from making a boom into the market.
