    New

    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

    After my 1 week waiting and I have got my A-Star. I had lots of confusion when I planned to purchase a new car. I did test drive on somany cars and my mind got stucked in below three.

    1. Maruthi- WagonR -- Rejected due to less power with AC and 3 months wating period.
    2. Chevrolet Beat -- I liked the look and power. Rejected due to Milege. I drive 70kms per day to office from my home
    3. Maruthi Alto -- Very less power and bad interiors (Fact is what you get for 3 lacks)
    4. Swift -- Good car, good space. Rejected due to milege, waiting period and less ground clearence.

    You will be so curious how I reached in A-Star.Here you go.

    Good pickup, Good milege, Great look (Not the rear end- Maruthi has to do some thing for that), Great controll in 140km/hour, reasonable price and more over great interiors.

    It costed me around 402000 in trivandrum, its onroad price.

    I have chosen A-star VXi and it came with all the features except ABS and Airbag. I bought only 2 JBL speakers extra which costed amount 2400. Rest of the accessories I have got it free from the dealer.

    So let me come to the driving experience.

    We are 5 member family and all are adults having 5.5" hight and above 60km weight. We five can sit comfortably with out any issue. The seat in backside is in platform, it doesnt provide any vibration if you drive in bad roads. I have driven through all the roads and my car gave great controll. Only thing is bootspace is less. You cannot carry more luggages. Still you can carry bags but you cannot keep big suit-case and all. But for my need its fine.

    The car will give you a reasonable power, Good gear,Nice built in stereo, good power steering and more over good interiors. AC is powerful and it make you cool in less time. I am getting 17km/litre with half time AC and my car is not services for the first time.

    The Dashboard is big and the small people will not get a good view.
