Tata Motors announced the launch of its sporty hatchback, the all-new Tata Bolt. Tata Bolt will be available in both Petrol and diesel variant and is being manufactured at the Pimpri plant in Pune.
Design
Just like Zest, the Bolt has been designed by three Tata Motors design studios – India, UK and Italy. The Tata Bolt exterior is completely different from its previous hatchback. The exterior gives you the feel of larger hatchback. You can see the lines everywhere, which create the illusion of movement even when the car is standing still. The wraparound rear windows by darkened C-pillar gives distinctive floating roof design and provides extra sporty touch. The flamed shaped rear tail lamps and bumper further enhanced sportier stance.
The new Tata signature grill and the Humanity Line visually flow into the smoked multi-chamber headlamps, creating a unique design signature for the brand. A wide air intake and the fog lamp Bezels give a sporty and confident look to the car. All the elements of the car, combined with a well sculpted body, add to its dynamic and athletic stance
With the Tata Motors new design DNA, Bolt gets attractive interior too. The Interior comes with black dashboard, center console, best-in-class infotainment and HVAC. Some key design elements are new generation Tata signature 3-spoke steering wheel with ergonomic groove, driver-centric cockpit, precisely detailed air vents and sculpturally designed central console
