Skoda Rapid review after 14 months use

Exterior

Before buying this car, I compared it with verna and maruti cars. I like most is the clean true sedan like design, well designed grill and head lamps especially fog lights. strong and flexible shock absorbing front and rear bumpers.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

all required features such adjustable front seats, adjustable steering, external locking arrangement, keyless entry, cruise control, dirive guide for gear selection, easy signal lever, adjustable arm rest, alloy wheels, spaces for easy keep and sufficient boot space. 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

Good driving comfort with required power control, resonable fuel  economy with 15.5km in city and 18.5km on long drive, smooth gearbox

Ride Quality & Handling

Great riding quality with powerful engine and easy handling due to smooth power steering. I driven around 25000km in year and found comfortable vehicle with powerful breaks.

Final Words

Apart all good words mentioned above it is reliable and well designed vehicle for human safety that I tested in actual road accident. Thank to Skoda for taking this care.

Areas of improvement  

- pls work on to reduce servicing cost.

- harder clutch peddle especially in traffic.
