Favourite car

Good car in this price. I am happy with this car using since five year there is no major problems I cannot think about sale of this car I am using second Hyundai car my first Hyundai car was i10 then I used i20active. I love Hyundai cars.

A beast with value for money which never let you down

if will talk about the price that one will get it higher but don't worry it is value for money car... as the quality of parts and body including engine is like you will not get in any other brand under this price range. smooth drive experience with some sporty trends. yeah but when it comes to service and maintenance, it takes little bit more than other cars but you will not regret as it offers premium quality of drive and life with proper maintainance. the only con is it takes maintainance which is little higher everything else except maintainance I would like to count as pro from my driving experience to build up quality.

Volkswagen Polo petrol auto: CarWale Track Day 2021

By Ninad Ambre12 Nov 2021

Why more than a 10-year-old product here, you may ask! Now, there are two reasons for the Volkswagen Polo to be at the racetrack. First, Volkswagen brought track fun, made motorsports popular, and Indian racing accessible to the masses. Like arrive-n-drive, where you just pay, arrive at the track, and drive a prepped-up VW! This brand name is quite synonymous with racing. Second, more than 10 years and not much has really changed. That speaks so much about its build quality and durability. Speaking of which, a new engine with a new autobox, well, I know I had to forget stick-shift fun here. Yet, with its huge strength being dynamics, there's no more contemplating. So, could I expect the best possible traction and superior driving dynamics from this everyday hero? There was only one way to find out. Drive!
