TATA MANZA
In response to the lower excise duty on sub-four meter cars, Tata Motors is set to roll out a shortened version of its entry-level sedan Tata Manza. Tata Manza Compact Sedan christened as Tata Manza CS can be launched by the end of this year or early 2012. Presently, Tata Manza price ranges from Rs 5.44 lakh-Rs 7.72 lakh . With the squeezed version Tata Manza CS, the company will be in a position to cut down the price significantly by Rs. 30,000 to 40,000 compared to its longer counterpart. It is most likely that this ‘CS’ version of the Manza will be launched in 1.4-litre SAFIRE and 1.3-litre Quadra jet engines. The new car will have more rear seat leg-room and a larger boot than the latter owing to the longer wheelbase than the Vista by 50mm. Tata Manza CS will be on the same platform as the Manza sedan and the exteriors will more or less be same in design. The interiors of Manza CS will largely remain same with some downgrades possible on base variants to keep the pricing competitive.
