Good purchase - love my Honda Mobilio !

I have been driving this car since last 5 and half years now and I am glad that I made the purchase. Pros: 1) Engine: The engine on this car is its heart. Even though it is 1.5L; it can easily carry 8 people at 80kmph. It can easily climb mountain roads (I have travelled with family to Mount Abu, Pavagadh many times) and this car is does its job. It may climb on 1st or 2nd gear; but the engine holds fine. Does not heat up or does not require additional acceleration. Last and most important thing is the position of the engine. Because it is located slightly higher than other cars, you can also drive the car on water logged (flooded) roads (during rains). And this is the main reason why I am writing this review. My much loved Honda Mobilio has ensured that I return home safely even when there is flooding outside; and other cars are stranded 2) Comfort: This car can easily fit 8 adults with luggage; and I have done that many times. It is only when you sit in the car that you realize how spacious it is. Also, the height of the car makes it easier to get in and out. 3) Air Conditioning: The AC of this car is superb. Even though it is a big car; it cools very fast. 10/10 for AC performance 4) Driving Driving is also a pleasure. The engine revs fine; good pick up even when fully loaded. The power steering is good. The driving position also is very good; since you can adjust both the steering and the driver seat height. It gives a good view of the road. Cons: 1) Interior: With the price that I paid; they could done with a better sound system. The speakers rattle a bit during monsoons; and I have to play them for at-least 30 minutes before the rattle goes off 2) Exterior: They should give parking sensors and outside video free of charge; as this is a big car. Also, the front head lights should be improved; as they look dated. Also, they should start giving electric mirrors. Overall, I am happy with this car. It a joy to ride and I feel safe driving it. Extremely satisfied with my Honda Mobilio

I Feel Cheated

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Friends, I am an Unhappy Owner of Mahindra Quanto. The Car is Positioned in the Market as a Diesel Variant at about 7 -8 Lacs Segment and the Company Claims the Mileage is 17.7 km/ltr, You will be astonished that the Average in the City of My Qunato is as low as 10.5 km/ltr which is almost 6 Rs / Km. The Car with No Luxury and Priced at 7 Lacs with Diesel Segment Just makes No Sense at Such High Cost of Running, There are Much Better Cars Available in Petrol Segment which will run at Similar Cost. The AC Power is Extremely Low, I Must say that Either its a Complete Manufacturing Defect or I Advice Customers to be Careful before making a Choice, May be you will Regret Later. I have Connected to Mr. Mahindra post which the Service Center Responded and they have taken my Car for Test and Yesterday they Partly Acknowledged finally and I am still to get a Resolution. Incase they Respond that this is the Average that Quanto gives in the City then I plan to Move to Court for Misleading Buyesr with False Claims which is Not expected from a Company Like Mahindra. This is an Information I thought Need to be shared.</p>Interior SpacePoor Poor Mileage
