Well, a pathetic vehicle to say the least. Purchased in mar 2008, didn't experience a single WEEK of trouble free operation.Every part incl ac, suspension, seats, central locking, engine, steering, doors etc has been repaired/ rectified more than once, without any satisfactory result. Vehicle has been spending more time in garage & less with me. Parts are rarely in ready stock.

Biggest mistake of our life. It sucks. Ideally, will like full refund of the vehicle.

Sumo Grande Is The Worst Car I Have Ever Seen In My Life.. The Engine Oil And Radiator Water Mixed .. Screwing The Entire Engine And Water Assembly.. Just 10K Kilometers Done.. And 9 Months O[censored]se...
What are you people talking about, I purchased a Sumo Grande last year around March, and its used in only rough roads to our farmhouse about 240 KM from Delhi for our weekends trips and for office use going up and down. In 1 1/2 years it has done more than 30, 000 KMS, and there is no problem with it. It rides amazing, especially on rough roads. The maintainable is negligible, the primary reason its used as a cab by many. the fuel efficiency is great.. overall a wonderful car.
bad people in service centre possibly using pressure politics to reach their own means as usual in the scenario... as it is !... my jeep is a tata sumo se ... very very very very old enough ... and as some will say down the sneakers!... so ahh! ahh! arrgh!...
I Have purchased Sumo Grande GX and have had no problem at all. The handling in the city has been fantastic.The control is like a small car. I went to Lonavala for a drive and the to tell you the truth the climb up the hill was simply superb. We were just Gliding up hill. The pick up also has been fantastic. The cooling is superb.
I really am very happy owning a Tata Sumo Grande. I also own sumo SE. And my friends always discouraged me from buying a sumo. But I proved them wrong. Even after 9 years the sumo SE starts on half turn on the ignition.
The handling of sumo SE and Grande are definitely different and you just need to know your vehicle.
Although when you are driving empty on rough road the rear of Grande jumps a bit as it has leaf springs but when it is filled to its capacity (in my case 8 people) it responds a great deal better.

So just relax enjoy a drive in Grande.

Still not confident, whome to believe abou the buying experience and whether to purchase the car
This is a piece of Crap. TATA Motors is a reckless company which is not interested in taking these complains serious anymore. I have had very bad experience and car is not well balanced when run on the Road at or above 60 kmph. Brakes are very bad.. and they get locked when you apply them. It is the worst of experience I've ever had before.


People who are enjoying might not see these problems now but definitely in future. However, my sincere advise to anyone who trust this car SUMO Grande, is to drive it with extra care as it has big issues in it and is susceptible to the accidents.
i bought the tata grande gx in feb 2009 and had no problems till i took it for its 2nd service, the guys at tata motors chd are pathetic in workmanship...they wash the car in the open and the front bumper is showing signs of fading, the brakes are bad and lock...now after the service at 15000 kms the brake pedal shivers at 80kmph and the whole front console vibrates...when i went back the service personal says that drive it for some 500kms and it will be fine...but i am tired of taking it to the service station...tata mototrs has to wake up... i am not a satisfied customer...the braking was fine till the guys opened it up to clean it and voila...just screwed up my grande...seems like they are not qualified.
otherwise the grande is an amazing muv...happy with it till the braking issue...
My tata sumo grande GX's AC is not working properly, When the ignition key is ON, then the ACis working or ON, that time AC' s switch is at off position.
