SELL YOUR USED TATA ZEST CAR!

Tata Zest was launched by Tata Motors in India in August 2014. This compact sedan was Tata’s first new offering in the segment after four years to reclaim the dipping market share. It is a compact sedan which has been in the Indian market for 5 years and it received a great reception post its launch. Tata Zest was built on a meticulously upgraded version of the Tata Vista’s XI platform. Tata Zest outsold many cars within its segment as well and became Tata’s best-selling car in that year and led the competition against Maruti Suzuki Swift Dzire, Honda Amaze, and the Hyundai Xcent. Tata Motors developed this car with a view to dominating the passenger car segment. It created quite the impact in the market within just one year of its launch through its impressive sales figures. Subsequently, a Tata Zest used car can also bag a great deal to the owner who wishes to sell their used Tata Zest.

Sell used Tata Zest in India

Tata Zest was launched with the view to help Tata Motors reclaim its market share in the market and make a comeback in the passenger car segment. Initially, the Tata Zest did fare well for the company with good sales figures but gradually it lost its shine to capture the attention of consumers. It lost out on sales to its rivals and didn’t do well later on for the auto giant. 

 

It is quite common in India to sell a used car after a period of five years, as people usually go for the higher versions of the car by selling their used ones.  If you are thinking to sell used Tata Zest car, then you should certainly do it as it can get you many benefits. You may go for a better car with the latest safety and technology features so as to remain updated with the times. A car which is five years old would have usually covered 60,000-80,000 km of distance. And going by this number, there’s plenty of life left in the Tata Zest second hand for the next buyer. 

 

Another important thing one needs to keep in mind is the constantly changing pollution norms in the country. The government will implement the BSVI norm from 2020 so you should sell Tata Zest second hand within the right time to bag a fine deal. Moreover, the value of your Zest car second-hand keeps depreciating annually and it is better to sell it off while its value is high in the market.

Resale value of Tata Zest

If a person is on the lookout to sell pre-owned Tata Zest, they have to bear certain factors in mind when doing so. There are multiple aspects that define the Tata Zest second-hand price. First of all, the current discounts which are being offered on the same new model car determine its price. So, avoid selling your Tata Zest second-hand car during festive seasons and during the end of year sales. 

 

Next up, the low-end versions of your Zest second hand might not fetch you as many buyers as the high-end versions because people buying used cars mostly prefer the best version of the model. Among others, shades also play an important role when you decide to sell old Tata Zest. Shades like white, black, silver get buyers easily whereas bright shades like yellow, pink, green find it difficult to seek a customer. 

 

You may also determine the value of your used Tata Zest automatic by keeping it maintained from day one, through timely servicing and check-ups. If the documents of second-hand cars Tata Zest like service history, RC, insurance and more are kept safely, it becomes easier for the seller to close the deal.
