    Value for Money

    PURCHASE:
    New

    DRIVING:
    Few hundred kilometers

    Exterior The exterior is very stylish,I bought purple color for my father.The car is loaded with features and fornt fog lights.Body colored bumpers and ORVM's and the best part this car has a boot space now which is sufficient enough as compared to a NANO.

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The interiors is very pleasant with beige and grey.The DIS carries engine temp. monitoring and distance to empty which is very helpful and also the average.The car has front power windows and a bluetooth music system,central locking WooooW!!! with four speakers 2 in front and 2 on the rear parcel shelf.The seats are also having covers on them which are very good.Space is good inside the cabin for average height people but would be cramped for tall people obviously. The noise of the tyres while running is not pleasant inside the cabin as it is very irritable.The suspension is good even with  R12 tyres the potholes are not so much felt and the drive is comfortable and smooth.The car has a nicely done console in the front with a 12V socket.

    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine is same as the earlier NANO but yes they have improved a lot as the drag during start is not so visible and picks up nicely.The gears are not so smooth though and at the sametime the first gear is a bit tough to put.The car lacks 5th gear as it seems like a drag in 4th after a speed of 60+.FE cant say as got the car yesterday only (20.09.15).The PS is very smooth as it has a EPS and was much required and will be very helpful in this small car to manouver in NCR traffic.The gear shifting is satisfactory but at times hard putting the 1st.

    Ride Quality & Handling The ride is not so bumpy it is smooth but the noise of the wheels inside the cabin is very irritable.The handeling is very good with the PS but at the sametime one has to be careful as this being a tall car the centre of gravity is also high and therefore, the possibility of getting unstable is more at curves or ll of a sudden. But I guess a person needs to get used to this handeling but cautious at the sametime.

    Final Words The car is a perfect value for money with sooo many features with being affordable and convinient and also great for manouvering in heavy traffic areas.The interiors are very nicely done.The exteriors are very smart with body colored ORVM's and bumpers.Power is good but there is a urge for 5th gear although the AMT offers 5gears but not the MT.

    Areas of improvement The outside noise and speacially the wheels noise is heard in the cabin very prominently.The seats can be more comfortable interms of the rigidity.

    Good style,power steering,DIS,power,nice interiors,bluetooth music system,power windows,boot spaceSeats could have been more comfortable and tyres noise inside cabin
