Mr. Narayanan Menon’s Tata Indigo Manza has achieved a mileage of 46.32 kmpl on 25th May, 2010. The report was sent to Limca Book of records and the test was done as per their instructions. Tata Motors acknowledged the efforts by gifting him brand new alloy wheels but have not taken any initiative from their side to promote this effort. Now, he is targeting a mileage of 50 kmpl and has applied for Guinness book of world records. The car is absolutely stock with no modifications whatsoever. However what is different is Mr. Narayanan driving techniques which helps him extract the best mileage out of any car he drives. We have verified the documents and it is indeed true, the mileage achieved is absolutely true and a eye opener to many.
What we would like to know from Mr. Narayanan are his driving techniques. This will help all of us conserve fuel and save the earth. He has promised to share with us his driving tips some time later. We also wonder what mileage he can achieve in lighter cars like the Swift and A-Star with his magic foot. Meanwhile we wish him all the best to achieve 50+ kmpl and get into the Guinness books ASAP.

This is a wonderful feat by an indian manufacturer. At this time of crisis, we need cars with more mileage on road. Hope the mileage remains the same.
It’s great thet people like narayanan have taken their time and schedule for the same. We need more mileage for more car segments and thus help our economy

July 26, 2010 at 11:29 pm
@Narayanan sir, just because of you, tata’s sale is going to shoot up. ask a percent in the profit they get. lolzz ;) guys, TATA has given an alloy wheel.. surprised.. thank god they didn’t give a floor mat

i dought,he must be driving on a steep downhill road in top gear.
July 27, 2010 at 6:18 pm
I think TATA should come forward, Alloy wheel sd gidt is nothing, it is individual benefit only, they have to think about it globally
July 27, 2010 at 6:21 pm
Thanks Guys for Promoting me, i will definitely share with you guys one day
@ pedru : Nice Joke, but driving down hill is not ideal for any energy saving other than for bicycles ;)
@ Arjun: Yes, They have to take more initiative
@ others: Thanks a lot for support, Thanks Fas for the initiative taken

MANZA is a gr8 vehicle, its so spacious and even comparable to all type of sedan vehicles. i was glad to know its mileage, but i am able to get only 17-20 kmpl. Let wait for Naryanans tips and achieve the same .
