    DRIVING:
    Its my mate since ages

    Exterior

     Looks like a standard eurpean car , I really like the understated look with glint of sophistication and simplicity and amazing build quality

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)Build quality is superb, plastic and the dashboard is amazing


     

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox- amazing performance for the new 1.5 engine power is linear, less turbo lag as compared to the previous model. Clutch is a bit heavy though. the gear changes are perfect.


     

    Ride Quality & Handling--Handling is best this is one of the reasons i chose this car. This is the single most cruical selling point for the car if you want something soggy and comfortable you guys are better off with asian crap, but if u really want to enjoy the long  drive after work this is the car for you especially on winding roads its even better than its sibling Vento by a good margin.

    PEOPLE PLEASE DONT COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SUSPENSION COZ IT IS SETUP AT HARD FOR GOOD HANDLING , I AM WORRIED THEY MIGHT SOFTEN IT LIKE OTHER CARS.

     

     

    Final Words-- This car is for people who understand the driving dynamics and value safety and ride above everything else, the only reason people seem to complain is coz they dont understand their car, I know the after sales service is not at its best but sometimes its also the consumer at fault.

    ITS THE MOST FUN TO DRIVE CAR EVER IN ITS PRICE RANGE--PLEASE DONT EVER CHANGE THE SUSPENSION --- 

     

     

    Areas of improvement  : could have done with better infotainment system like the one on Octavia and the clutch can be a bit easy.
