    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

     

    Exterior The looks are really good. It may not be as stylish as some other cars but looks grand.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very spacious. Back seats are very comfortable. Only the middle seat is slightly uncomfortable because of the hand rest folded up. Stereo system is good but does not come with a USB port. AC has climate control and a big display screen. Steering controls are missing.

     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is one of the best in terms of power and economy. It has superb power and gives the feeling of a petrol car. The gear shift is slighly hard. The second gear does not pull at low speeds and we have to shift to 1st, this is be quite an irritant in heavy traffic. The 2 horn buttons are small and hard. For Indian traffic you expect big buttons as we use them often. The indicator switch and wiper switches are interchanged compared to Maruti and other Japanese vehicles and therefore needs getting used to.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is excellent and gives you a sense of control even at high speeds. Pick up is the best in its class. It just zooms on highways and overtaking is a joy. Being a big car, city driving may be difficult, but is an excellent vehicle for highways.

     

    Final Words Best value for money. It has all the features of a luxury car - power, comfort, space. It is the best buy.

     

    Areas of improvement Gear ratios for 1st and 2nd gear. Horn buttons to be bigger and smoother, USB port in stereo system.

     

    Excellent pick up, Great Space, Royal ComfortGear Shift, Horn Position, no USB
