    Its my mate since ages

    Exterior

    I have seen many comments regarding outdated body and all but friends even today i get many compliments for the imposing stance of the car.The suv looks best in bold black or grey  

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

     The space in the suv is tremendous.I have gone frm mumbai to kerala twice in this suv with 6 other members in utmost comfort and there are lots of space in it.The cabin is airy and doesnot feel claustophobic.The dashboard is basically utilarian but may feel outdated to some.But in ones i saw recently launchd there are cosmetic changes near air vents and nearthe 2 din JVC music system.The audio controls on the steering  and bluetooth controls work very well and i use it all d tym. There are  airvents in all three rows and it is sufficent.The seats are comfortable and there are lot amounts of legspace.EVN with all seats up der ws space to keep some burly backs in the bck.THe music system wrks vry wel with usb ,pendrive fm. Der are few panel gaps but den u can see it in allmost all cars plyin around

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

     The engine is  mercedes benz 2.2 FM tech.Even though its bit old u can feel the outright acceleration at start.It is quite fun to drive and u wont feel its kerb weight is 1800 kg and still it reaches 0-100 in 12-13 seconds.the fuel economy is around 10-11kmpl. considering the mammoth size of the car and kerbweight i wud accept it ,considering i hav seen some endeavour returning 6kmpl.Gearbox is bit tight and it requires some extra effort evn though its frm G32 mercedes benz gearbox.Now using it for 1.5 years iam accumstomed to it. The gearing is well done to rev properly in both city and highway use. 

    Ride Quality & Handling

     The ride quality is very gud .U wont feel smal bumps or potholes on the road at all.Actually ihav been to U.T (hillstation) ,tamilnadu and many places in kerala which required force one to ride on steep hills and dirty roads and we were happy wid the performance.The good groundclearance helps it in this cause.Like i said earlier gearbox is bit tight and u need some effort but using it continously for this period of time nw i dont feel nythin. Thers a cruise control option,Hav used it only once or twice ,it works but den i dont like to use it so cant say abot it.I hav coveres 39000 kms in this tym.

    Final Words

    I had to choose between Force One and XUV500 but i choose the former. There ws no place for kindergartn bag in the bck wid all seats up in XUV500. Whn i frst bought force one ,it had some probls ,but den it ws first passngr vehicl from force.Ovr the the period of tym The initial troubles were removed by fixin them at service centre at turbhe .The updated parts were not charged at all .One of notable were the coolant problem , but then at last it too was solved it has not occured since last year.I am now enjoyin my car and i use around 80 kms evryday.Wen i bought it there wer only 4 force one in my area but then after new models were introduced i can see new ones croppin here and der too often.When u are using suv u need power and force one has it brutally.

    Areas of improvement I would have likd the gearbox to be bit mor loose 

    The sales office i kno has been shiftd from sanpada to nerul in navi mumbai.The service station is at pawne turbhe midc.Now this is important The service station guys are bit lazy. So if u go der be firm and get ur work done and check it wen they return it. Doing this will help u to get ur vehicle on time and get the job done.Thers a camp evry year at the service centre wen lot of staff from force company comes , visit it get the new changes in car. To be vry serious the car company does continous R&D and tries to remove niggles and thats i like the best.Recently i heard they are investing 500 crore into another production plant.
