Worst Service and Parts Unavailability

You will have to park your car in their garage for 60 days for a minor repair or any accidental damage. Being a premium car, it is not worth getting this kind of service. Think twice before purchasing one. I have put my detailed review on the Kun BYD Coimbatore Google review page.

Sports car and very beatiful car
