TATA VENTURE

Expected Price: Rs. 4.5 Lacs

Tata Venture seems to be a breath of fresh air with its European look which adds to its aesthetics.

Tata Venture is little less than 4 meters in size. It accommodates eight passengers comfortably in three front facing rows. There are some other variants come as 5 and 7 seater option. Venture can easily accommodate bag and baggage. The rear seats can be removed, just like in any other van to make room for luggage. However even if it’s not done, this van should able to take the load quite easily.

Exclusive arranged space for bottles, maps, books inside the van shows that it is designed for long driving. Tata puts features such as power steering, HVAC, power windows, keyless entry along with engine immobilizer, reverse parking aid and rear wipers. The dashboard is kept minimalistic and the instrument panel and buttons, easy to read and operate. Upholstered with two tones beige and black theme, Tata Venture stands out from its rivals in the segment in terms of looks and features incorporated in it.

The beautiful model from Tata comes in three exclusive variants, Tata Venture CX, Tata Venture EX and Tata Venture GX. The mill affixed in Tata Venture is a 1.4 L turbo engine that offers maximum output of 50 PS in base variant Tata Venture CX and 71 PS in the rest two. The powerful engine gives a good fuel economy of 15.42 kmpl (certified by ARAI). The mill is positioned under the seating compartment in front. A lid next to the handbrake makes it easy to get an access to the engine compartment from inside the car in case one needs to replace or check engine liquid.
