  1. I would like to know why Tata Indigo Marina has not become popular. I consider this car as a good utility car for family especially who are touring a lot. Please comment.

    1. I totally agree with Mr. Sunil Kumar`s view. Indigo Marina have sufficient boot space to go on vacation along with entire family comfortably.

  2. Dear Lijo
    Awaiting a detailed TD from you of the eV2 CR4.
    Is this engine likely on the Vista also?
    Thanks
