THE TATA INDIGO has been a best-seller since its launch. Now Tata Motors is launched the luxury- laden SX series. The Indigo SX comes with all- beige interior. In fact Tata has taken the beige theme so seriously that even the boot’s interior carpeting is in beige. Carrying the beige theme forward are the leather seats in the same colour. The rear seats have always had ample legroom and now get even more comfortable with the addition of a central armrest. Also standard is a leather-wrapped gear knob and steering wheel.

The car comes equipped with luxury features like a Kenwood MP3/VCD player and individual LCD screens for the rear passengers. Reason enough to ensure that there will never be a dull moment for the passengers. The car also comes with digital trip and odometers.

Tata Motors has also taken care that you always reach a destination on time by plunking an analog clock in the centre of the fascia. For the first time ever, the Indigo comes with electronically adjustable side rearview mirrors. Also for the first time, height adjustment is available for the driver’s seat.

Changes to the exterior are minimal and the Indigo SX comes with fog lamps, new side skirts and 14-inch alloy wheels. The big disappointment though is that the petrol Indigo engine has remained untouched. Being a luxury offering, Tata has ensured that the quality of materials used are an overall improvement but they still fall short of a car sold in this price bracket. The next lower version that comes equipped with power steering, power windows and air-conditioning.
