Sumith, Kochi.

My one is a G4 7 seater done 34100 Kms. It is an excellent one...exteriors are superb with the reverse spoiler, and foot rest. The strip (sticker) is essential for a stop breathing of pedestriants.  Reverse senser is mandatory, as on rainy time as well as congusted area, you will be totally out of control to see what's going on back side. Interior, seats and all features inside are top class... Engine superb.  You need to reach the 3rd gear and reach a speed of 70kms, to u/stand the smoothness of the engine.... At this stage it looks the engine saying 'push push the accelerator to catch me'.....good car worth for money.

From my experience, use only Normal Diesel.  And if possible use only one Diesel pump (HP or IBP, whatever closer to you).  This will give you good mileage as well as life to engine.

Innova AC is called AC.... Superb cooling with split AC.  The last row guys getting inside the car at  a hot sun day, will feel cool within seconds.  (I had a 5 seater car before, where people used to curse me for no cooling effect on back side).

Negatives: Putting the feet on the brakes and pressing it keeping the legs on there, will not stop the car. Need to push the brakes.  On a normal pressing, it doesn't look the feeling of brakes!!   Don't know it's my problem alone. 

Shivering of steering wheel at a speed beyond 100kms.  Scared to drive beyond this one...somebody says tyre problem, but it is brand new....

At certain steep heights (especially on hair pin bends), feel lack of power with 7-8 persons, with AC switch on. 

The engine sound at 4th and 5th Gear with glasses up, seems to be so good to hear... May be becoz of the diesel engine... We don't hv to put it as a negative remark.

Otherwise it is a great car in it's class.....surely an eye taker as well as marvellous performer........
