Tata Zest launch is just around the corner and is being rigorously tested in the country to meet all criteria of a cool car before its launch. The car has been snapped again in the country, this time showing the test mule in high resolution pictures.
Thanks to the good folks at Rushlane for the latest set of spy shots. The test mule of Zest seen in the spy shots shows the car's headlight, front fascia in detail along with tail lights and alloy wheels. Nothing much has been changed from what we have seen in the last set of spy pics, though there are a few new details. The latest set of images also reveals the interior details of the upcoming Zest, which is expected to be on the road during this festive season. Going by the latest report, auto aficionados can steer the wheel of Zest by August.
