The Tata Indica was a hit, and there's no question about that. But not just any hit, a legendary one. Tata Motors had revolutionized the car market.
In 2002, Tata had finally come out with a sedan for the personal car market. In the first look, anyone would've gotten confused. It got its entire front end from the Tata Indica, the successful prodigy from tata.
The car seemed proportionate, and nothing like an Indica was forced to carry a boot around. However, the designing elements weren't tweaked unnecessarily. It was a plain but good-looking four-wheeler.
