Tata Indica Vista Ignis with ABS and airbags arrives

Not yet, but very soon, as these spy shots propose, the Indica Vista Ignis with steering mounted controls, Airbags, ABS and a 1.4-liter SAFIRE engine is galloping our way.

Tata’s Vista Ignis will have Fiat Linea’s 1.4-liter petrol engine capable of delivering 95PS. Currently, the petrol Vista uses a 1.2-liter engine with 65 PS rating from the same family, which isn’t underpowered, but taking stock of what the the competition offers, the 1.4-liter variant could ignite Vista sales.

On the other hand, Tata Motors is known better for its diesel engines. The Safari petrol bombed, the Indica XETA could not hold a candle, and the Indigo and Marina petrols were nothing more than faint attempts to change the diesel-only image. Tata even offered a staggering 100hp Indigo XL limousine, which found minuscule success.

Could the Ignis mark a new era in Tata Motors’ petrol offerings? You tell us.

    @samc – we’re not sure. Perhaps you could wait a little longer as the car is expected to reach showrooms shortly.

  8. samc says:

    Any idea if this variant will be offered with 1.3 QJD?

  9. Jaz says:

    @Raj – I thought the City Rover was 85 PS? Ok, in the U.K the petrol Indica was preferred, but in India they are only diesel players

  10. Raj says:

    Tata’s core competency has ben Diesel, plonking Fiat petrol engines into Vista is ofcourse a good idea as petrol engines from Tata has not been a sucess except the petrol indica sold in UK in the name of City Rover which is 95 PS fully loaded with features.
