    DRIVING:

    Recently purchased Innova G4 8 seater (upgraded from Sedan 3 box)  covered around 1700 KM in 20 days. My initial observations / feed back is as below. +tive & -tive.

    a.       It looks huge from outside, but once you get inside you feel that it’s like a luxuries big size car. While driving you don’t feel the volume /size of the  car in small narrow roads, it can easily maneuvers in narrow roads. Good visibility.

    b.       While driving in city, you don’t require to apply the 1st gear, in 2nd gear you can mange to move the  car without any jerks. On highway it can manage  with 4th and 5th gear. Frequent change of gears in not required. You can comfortably cruise 120 to 130 km on highway without any risk. Observed that once the speed is beyond  115 to 120  km. the engine sound will be more any how you can’t expect the speed like sedan models.  While overtaking the other vehicle, you should be little careful on the accelerations if the speed cuts in the middle, again you can’t gain the instant speed immediately.  

    c.        Initial time I was bit worried about the breaks on high way roads. My experience the breaking system is very good on high speed. (G4 Model without ABS) very dependable breaking. In fact while I was driving at around 125 km I could mange to stop the car without any havoc or confusions very good road grip, car did not move towards sides it was a straight approach stop. Comfortable seats for driving even though there is no seat adjustments,  no back pain for long driving. Power Steering is bit hard on drive, Get used to it.  AC is having a good cooling.

    d.       Big problem with the Head ligh<

    Road Grip, Comfort seating, AC, BreakingHead Light, Engine sound, power steering tight.
