Good Buy

 

Exterior Although not an eye catcher, the car is exteremly good all around.  However, what left to be desired is the joints near the rear bumper and the body, where the finish could have been better.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Good Spacious car, the air conditioning is good and got to experience this in 42 degrees celsius and was happy about the outcome. Went around a 2000 Km trip from Chennai to Kerala (4+2) and it was indeed a comfortable ride all throughout.  Again for such a car, you would have expected a remote boot opener, which is missing.  The integrated MP3 Player also could have been upgraded.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox On the highways, 110 kmph was sweet, however @120, you feel the vibration and you do not want that from a 10 lac car..I am not sure whether things would improve with the coming services (as i have only completed 2000 kms).  Havent been able to test the fuel economy in detail, however looks like good so far.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Except at the corners (on the hills) where the visibility is almost nil, the drive was comfortable.  It's truly a driver's car.

 

Final Words Great Buy.

 

Areas of improvement Perfomance beyond 120 kmph, visibility at corners, remote boot opener, MP3 player.
