    PURCHASE:

    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

    Exterior I really liked the overall look and feel of the car, it gives a premium feel and the style gets complete with front grille and fog lamps. The doors are lighter and have to be pushed harder than general for a proper locking (which I don't like as I owned a palio which was far sturdy). I feel that within 1 year or so the doors would start creating noise which is giving me pain by the thought of it.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) It is dual tone and simple which I like in my car, I got the existing music system replaced with a touch streen panel which completes the look although I am ok with plastic quality (which many have reviwed no good) but I found places where things could have been better. It is very comfortable as it was my first priority for my family to be comforatble in rear seat otherwise I would have gone for Sail sedan or Amaze. I found the interior noiser than my palio as after pulling up window it used to be silent but in Sail uva, I can still hear outside noise.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Very poor pickup, gear shifting is ok but at times get problematic. Fuel economy is 15 kmpl+ with city & highway driving (I drive less and mostly on weekends) but I expected more as 11-12 is what my 10year old palio used to give.

    Ride Quality & Handling It is good. But I have been hearing some cranky noise from right side of either dashboard / tire / shocker but service center has checked and not found anything it generally comes during initial 2-3 kmts and very off and on so also, when I took it to centre it was not a problem so lets see.

    Final Words If chevrolet is ready to improve pickup and gear box it is must buy.

    Areas of improvement Pickup.

    Exterior looks, spacious, overall feel.Very Poor Pickup, Gear shifting (at times), comparitively noisy cabin.
