    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    Exterior The best looking car in its segment with amazing curves. Still mesmerizes depite having owned it for 2 years.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is good though fit and finish could have been better especially around the steering column but i can overlook that. interior has decent space though headroom at rear is tight for anybody above 5ft 9". M 5 11" and my hair always touches the roof.

    Also the door pockets aren't huge. front cupholders are useless. it could really do with more usable storage spaces.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is low on power and gets noisy beyond 4000rpm but the best part is that it never vibrates even when doing 45-50kmph in 5th gear.

    Gearbox is smooth. throw is short and precise. i get abt 10.5-11 kmpl in d city with ac mostly on which is par. on the highways it goes upto 14-15.

    Ride Quality & Handling This is the best part of the car. the car is a driver's dream. gr8 grip from tyres around corners, feelsome steering that is gr8 to hold and phenomenal stability. i've touched 150 and the car showed not even a single sign of nervousness. Ride is extremely pliant too.

    Final Words A fantastic car that could do so well in the indian market but fiat reputation not helping its cause.

    Though i'd like to mention that the car has been very reliable till now with 15000kms done. Add to that 3 free services with gaps of 1 year or 15000km. till date i've spent less than 5000 bucks on its servicing though with free services over the bill will increase but nothing too exorbitant.

    Areas of improvement Should really have more power. this car deserves it. wish the T-jet had arrived a little sooner.
