Revised Tata Manza Club Class to hit the stands on October 3

The Tata Manza was suffering with no so great sales figures in the recent months. August 2012 saw sales decline by over 46% compared to the same period last year.

According to TeamBHP member Akhilesh, Tata Motors has refreshed the entire Manza line up for the festive season. Calling it the ‘Tata Manza Club Class’, Tata Motors have introduced a number of exciting features on the entire Manza range.
The biggest change includes the introduction of a 75PS Quadrajet engine in the base LS version to boost numbers. We would like to remind our audience that before this refresh, the Manza was either available with a 90PS Quadrajet or a 90 PS Safire engine.
Other exciting features include -

• Touchscreen Multimedia Navigation
• Auto Climate AC
• Italian Leather Upholstery
• New Design 8 Spoke Alloy Wheels
• Better Quality Seat Fabric
• More Chrome
• Contrast Roof
•  

The refreshed Tata Manza Club Class will be launched in four variants:

LS (Aqua):

• 1.3L 75PS Quadrajet Engine
• Additional Chrome
• New Seat Fabric

LX (Aura):

• Additional Chrome
• New Seat Fabric
• Electric HVAC

VX (Aura ABS):

• Additional Chrome
• New Seat Fabric
• Touchscreen Navigation

EX (Elan):

• Additional Chrome
• New Seat Fabric
• Touchscreen Navigation
• Automatic Climate Control
• Contrast Sunroof

EXL (*New):

• Leather Upholstery

No word is available on prices yet so we will have to stay tuned until the official launch on the 3^rd of October to know whether the starting price will considerably go down.
Longstanding readers of IndianAutosBlog.com will remember my report from August last year on the expected changes in the variant nomenclature of the Manza, shortly after a shakedown on the Vista refresh. Perhaps this facelift will witness the dropping of Elan, Aura and Aqua names from the Manza lineup.
