Value for money

Need to improve rear a/c, need ac vent And interior, wheel base at least 2500,provide touch screen with 360d camera,spoiler,carpet etc. Little more premium car feel and outlook will needed ..

Beat petrol worst AC in its class never chills,

Final Words AC worst never cool and never chill in hot weathers rear passenger will always scold you will feel you ashamed , and will always think why you purchased worst car  Even after repeated visit to service centre company is saying this is the cooling capacity of this car we can't do anything , cross road service centre Kanpur is saying beat comes with less AC cooling so enjoy your car with no cool and chilling effect. Worst AC worst AC. Areas of improvement Air conditioning need a lot improvement, car 1200 cc  Should give a good cooling, AC of this car needs a quick replacement, by manufacturers end not by service centre end. Car which never cools, AC is just like cooler they allowed me to test new cars also but all of them are showing same performance at last workshop manager says beat come with limited AC capacity it cant provide the expected cooling and chiiling is not possible.Every thing about BEAT performance style looks pickup thermodynamics epAir condition worst in its class never cools and never chill in hot summer when you require it most,

Best in its segment

Great overall the experience of driving it for the first time was insane, had smooth go, I'd say best amongst its competitors..

Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Flex-fuel — First Look

By Ninad Ambre22 Jan 2023

The way things are being planned, the Maruti Suzuki Wagon R Flex-fuel (FF) is set to become India's first mass-segment flex-fuel car. It's one of the answers to the never-ending quest for alternative fuels for cars. The Wagon R FF is designed to run on any ethanol-petrol blend and will eventually help reduce tailpipe emissions. It also goes without saying it will comply with the upcoming and more stringent BS6 phase-II emission norms. The prototype exhibited at Maruti's pavilion at the 2023 Auto Expo looked exactly the same as the standard Wagon R on sale in India, save for the fluorescent badging. We believe the 'Flex-Fuel' branding on the side will be mellowed down in the production avatar. However, the bright green embellishments may be retained to display its green, environment-friendly avatar.

2014 Chevrolet Beat LT TCDI

By Selvin Jose25 Jun 2014

Majority of the cars sold in India are under Rs 10 lakh. This emphasises how important pricing is to our market. The hatchback doesn’t appeal to the middle class buyer only because of its affordability. Hatchbacks are cheap to buy and run, can slot into tight parking spots, take less space and consume less fuel. So, what if all these virtues are combined with the frugality of a diesel engine and the lowest sticker price in the entire market?
