    Exterior Exteriors dosent look really good.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Features, space and comfort are good.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox It give a really great perfomance, has a smooth engine, fuel economy is really good, it gives about 20kmpl on  highway.

    Ride Quality & Handling This part of the car is extremely disapointing. when we bought the car we used to travel around 50,000 Km every year and 80% of it is highway driving. it's a hell of task to control the car. there have been several situations where i had to break hard over the speeds of 80 and at that point of time it is indeed a real moving coffin, when the wheels lock the car shows a different behaviour which i haven't observed in any other cars. it tends to bank to one side and then when you realise that the car is drifting to the side and you turn the steering to another direction it compleatly goes out of control and starts drifing like crazy. the car is designed with a very small wheel base in order to enhance mileage without loosing performance but doing this will jeapordize the safety of the vehicle as the car itself is big with it's huge ass like boot and with such a small wheelbase it barely has any roadgrip.

    Final Words Well all i say about the car is that if you are a person who needs a car to go to the office and ocassionally travel on highways it's a value for money. a friend of mine has bought the car at the same time i bought it and he is really happy with it using it in the city.

    Areas of improvement NA.

    Good mileage, fairly low maintainance, good performanceExtremely bad road grip, breaking sucks
