To replace the Tata Indigo eCS in the private car market.
The compact sedan version of the Tata Zica has been rendered by MotorBeam. The latter is scheduled for launch in January and the sedan version is expected to be shown at the Auto Expo 2016 in Greater Noida in February.
It is to be noted that Tata Motors is the pioneer of the sub-4 metre sedan segment through the Indigo CS, which was launched at the 2008 Auto Expo. Though the Indica duo will be replaced by the Zica twins, the former will continue to be sold for the commercial market. It is safe to expect the Zica's features to find a place on the sedan, such as the 8-speaker 2-DIN audio system with AUX, USB, and Bluetooth, multifunction steering wheel, Dual front airbags and ABS.
