As the all new Tata Zica is gearing up for a launch in January 2016, market reports suggest that it could soon receive an AMT gearbox. The upcoming hatch is based on the XO platform that underpins Indica but in a much newer and updated form. Moreover, components like pedals and firewall will also be shared from the outgoing Indica. Models like Hyundai i10 and Maruti Celerio are going to be some major rivals for Zica.
