Most Helpful Review

Excellent features and better mileage

Excellent driving experiences, performance is very good and maintenance are very low cost compare to other luxury car and looks are very nice. perfect interior design and very comfortable seats.

Driving experience

It was a wonderful car along with wonderful driving experience. we have to compromise a bit in the mileage but yes overall it was a wonderful car. this car supports all type of luxury you are expecting from a Rs 1.2 crores car and so its a value for money deal also. I don't want to take name of other brands but this car is way beyond better than them. The sensing technology given by Jaguar in this car is very good and sense everything within real time.
