    DRIVING:
    Few thousand kilometers

    I have owned this car for almost three months now and have driven it 3500kms on all sorts of road (and no-roads). I thinks I could not have bought anything that suits my use better. I needed a car which is easy to drive in the city, is cofortable and spacious enough for long journeys and can take on almost anything that the roads of the country may throw at it. I must say it exceeded my expectations in all the parameters. I recently to my baby STORME to Darjeeling and Gangtok. Roads between Kolkata and Siliguri are really bad for most part. But I have to admit that even my father, who is sixty and has back problem, was perfectly comfortable all the way. 4x4 system is simply WOW!!! I realized the true capability of the vehicle while driving up the steep, rocky and extremely slippery (due to heavy and continuous rain) uphill road on my way back from Rock Garden in Darjeeling. While all the local rental vehicles were doing crazy things to maintain their momentum to climb up the road, I had just switched to 4L and the baby monster crawled up the dreaded road very nice and easy.

    I would just like to mention, that the 2014 model (the one I own) has got improved chassis but has downgraded couple of features, e.g. music system is no-longer a standard accessory and the leather upholstery has been replaced with fabric ones. The bright side is that you now have the option of choosing a music system of your choice and leather seats are not really suitable for tropical weather. So, I was actually happy with the downgrades.

    Contrary to my apprehension and popular hearsay, I found Tata Motors aftersales service is pretty good so far.

    Ride quality, Excellent On Road Manners, Great off-roading capabilitiesYet to find
