The new TM Barina is simple to buy and its aim is to provide features and options, which are added extra’s on the competition, as standard. It comes in only one feature packed variant, and customers can choose from a 5 speed manual transmission or a 6 speed automatic transmission (extra charges apply)
Cruise control, Bluetooth phone and audio, USB and iPod connectivity are standard. Sporty round lights front and rear with front fog lights are standard. Steering wheel phone and audio controls come standard in the TM Barina.
Hidden rear door handles are closer to adult standing height to make it easier to get in and out of. This car, despite being a light car, can comfortably hold four adults with a child in the middle.
Deep boot means more boot space plus full spare wheel means you can always have peace of mind just in case you get a flat. Unlike the competition, the boot is very deep and the boot carpet is very low lying boot to allow you to fit more in.
Back seats fold down to almost flat to allow a long storage area. A dual glovebox offers storage and easy access to USB connectivity for audio streaming. 3 cup holders are present for front and rear passengers and a further 2 bottles can fit comfortably in the door storage compartments. Where as other cars charge you extra for body coloured door handles, the Barina’s front handles match the body paint colour and the hidden rear handles blend in to the door to an extent where they are almost unnoticeable.
Interior features a sporty tachometer with an ice blue digital speedo to give you increased accuracy and immediate speed control. Circular air conditioning vents twist to close and add an extra measure of style to the cabin.
Should you choose the exciting 6 speed auto transmission, it comes with a thumb-switch manual mode to make changing gears a breeze. This is called Active Select which puts you in complete control at the push of a button.
This European styled vehicle is sporty and sophisticated. This is seen in the sporty exterior shape with a aero-dynamic front end with exposed, sharp, round headlights. It is seen in the sporty, metal-finished interior and dash with an ice blue digital speedometer.
The TM Barina delivers fuel economy to the max. Are you used to sitting in city traffic and burning fuel? No longer worry, the Barina’s punchy engine is very frugal on fuel in either the 5 speed manual or 6 speed automatic gearbox while still delivering spirited performance.
This car is safe. Headlights with ‘follow me home’ technology means that the driver will never be walking to the front door in the dark, and the headlights will turn off automatically after a set time. A maximum 5 Star ANCAP safety rating is impeccable for this size car. The 2012 TM Barina features six airbags and the latest technological safety to give you complete peace of mind should anything unexpected occur.
