The Indica V2 DICOR was launched at the 2008 January Auto Expo. The DICOR engine is fast creating waves in the Indian market. The Indica V2 DICOR is truly more car per car with Tata Motors redesigning its motors and fitting it with a direct common rail (DICOR) engine for better fuel and performance efficiency.

The V2 is the largest selling car for fleets, which thrive on fuel efficiency, and it has been the flagship model for small cars from Tata Motors for at least a decade. The Indica V2 Xeta is one of the cheapest cars in the market with the base model available for as low as Rs 2.54 Lakh. However, the variants with the DICOR engines have a price starting close to Rs 4 Lakh. The price tag may comparatively appear more, but the best thing about DICOR variants is that they come with these price tags because they include all the goodies that make for a comfortable driving experience: power windows, air conditioner, central locking, and fog lamps.

The DICOR engine in the V2 makes it a darling for buyers who want affordable cars with good thrust and power. The difference between a DICOR engine and a Turbo diesel engine is not in its layout, structure, or power. In fact, the only noticeable difference between the two, to a person looking from the outside comparing the two types of engines in the Indica V2, is the price where the DICOR model costs close to Rs 27,000 more than a turbo diesel model. So why do people crave a DICOR?
