Nice Things
1. The exterior looks much better than the conventional old Sumo.
2. The dual body color alos gives it a nice look.
3. The interiors are OK, not very much better than the old sumo.
4. Driver Seat is comfortable with an excellent all round view. The power steering is really good.
5. Engine noice is low and the Turbo kick in fast to give that extra power. Without the Turbo the pickup / power is still bad i.e. not different from the old Sumo.
6. A/C is good, less noise and the cabin cools really fast. The roof mounted A/C is a boon to the 2 nd 3rd row guys.
7. The tyres are wider and the ride is much comfortable. I also noticed that the side ways movement/ wobble found in the old sumo is also not there (this is really good improvement).
8. Seats are comfortable.

Not so good things
1. The plastic quality is really bad. The roof mounted A/C vents can come out if not sed carefully and the plastitc used for these ducts is really bad.
2. The gear shift is very close to the Music System control, so while chanign gears U might end up always hiting the front panel of u r music system if not carefull.
3. The engine lasks power, there needs to be more power for a 1.94L engine. If U R not using the Turbo the pickup is even pathetic.
4. Price appears high for the features and comfort provided.
5. No ABS and Safety Bags option.
6. Power Windows and other knobs/control not comfy to use.

Hope the above is of some use to U guys.

I strongly suggest to go for Grande for many reasons (price difference between Victa and Grande is nominal). Grande is value for money. You get 120 HP which is more than scorpio (115 HP) and close to safari (140 HP) plus you get more space, sporty SUV look, front faced 3 rows and so on.

why do not you have a look at the bolero. i think it looks better than the victa and is also cheaper to the victa


Why break rules when following them is much easier!!!
