Tough little Van

Exterior Elegantly Styled. reminds of the VW minibus. A boarding step is required to be provided under the left side door.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Superb A/C. I usually travel at night or early morning and i use the front blower with rear a/c combo otherwise my finger get stiff from the powerful a/c. There is oodles of space and even a six footer can be comfortable on the third row. The coolant box and the power steering oil tank are so wierdly located that i think the designer was looking for some revenge.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Fuel economy is good cosidering the power and weight ratios of the vehicle. I get 15 Kmpl in a mixed city and highway drive. Gearbox is clunky and takes some getting used to. The biggest drawback is the engine. Probably the 90 Ps engine woud have made this a more fun vehicle to drive. The brakes are too soft and do not inspire confidence to drive beyond 80kmph.ANyways it was never meant to for racing.

Ride Quality & Handling The ride quality is excellent. Person on the third row feels at ease over potholes and bumps. Excellent to drive in city and for parking.

Final Words Very good vehicle however it seems a little overpriced. Not for me as i picked up an unused demo car(2010 LX 7-seater model) from the vendor at about 50 % of the price all inclusive. Change the position of the Coolant tank and the power steering oil tank.

Areas of improvement Engine ppower needs improvement, Plastic fittings inside the car need to be of better quality. Alloy wheels required.
