No rear Head rest for most models, then come its premium!!!

Fixed headrest for the first 6-8 models for the rear seat, then how can it get a good safety rating..was shocked to know they are not providing head rest for rear, took the decision not to buy before the test ride itself !!! I don't understand how they take decisions like this, I think we have to go for Indian manufacturers like TATA & Mahindra (they are more safety headed now) which is really makes us proud.I can easily bet this will also get 2 stars like Nios !!! Then why pay so much for Gimmicky features without any basic safety features. Better go with Altroz, Nexon, Ford or Volkswagen

8k km experience review

If it's your first car , you will love it. It's my third car, and almost driven 8k km. first two were from Suzuki family. There is engine noise compared to Suzuki cars. 1 and 2 gear lag issue. Car doesn't climbs if fully loaded (5 pax and some bags in your boot space). Body built is better then Suzuki cars, feels confident on highways. On highway it is good but for city drives ( considering tragic) it's not up to the mark compared to Suzuki cars.
