Best in this segment

Everything is superb in this car. The comfort it offers on highways is unmatchable. It gives an aggressive look that I love about this car. Also, tata has kept in mind the minor details so that the features can be useful for the passengers. It is a very smooth car, all you need to do is just maintain the service schedule. Thanks Tata.

Its truly amazing to get such a comfy car with all features at this price. WOW !

I got the new lancer 1.5 petrol in Apr'06.ITS A WOW CAR!!!! I wanted to go for the new Honda City ZX, but my friend who already has it recommended me this Lancer coz his Honda City he says is BAD, 10-11 kms avg, poor braking , expensive spares. but my lancer is giving me better than that anyday. it gives me 11.5-12 in city and 15+ kms/ per ltr on Highway. The new beige interiors are amazing, and all the little refinements have made the car the best in its class. Mitsubishi has proven that Lancer is still the king and is here to stay and conquer. BEST BUY Thanks Sachin.Believe me it gives 11.5-12 kms

Its prime competitors are the Maruti Suzuki Baleno and the Toyota Glanza which are also offered in CNG versions but fewer variants; the Altroz CNG can be had in as many as six variants. Does this and the new segment-first features make it any good? We find out in this review.
