Look at these points before buying a Isuzu d max Hi-Lander

Isuzu in Maharashtra have some less dealerships,, really hard to find between a service centre and a showroom the drive was pretty decent ofc it's a truck thing, and pretty heavy to manouver looks are massive, India so eye catchy truck service is cheap, pros- best for small business loads, spacious too for passengers cons- the drive is heavy, you need not care about fuel economy will be 4 to 5

Experienced after buying

I bought this electric car 2 months back, driven 9900 kms until now. It runs 250 kms around with a single charge comfortably with AC on. Then u have to charge for complete peace of mind. Price high but u get 40% depreciation in your ITR for consecutive 4 years which means u haven't paid anything except for insurance and RTO. please make this car with two sets of battery, one for 250 kms and other for 125 kms, and alternatively, they should get charged by the regenerative power energy source and kinetic energy too thus KONA will go beyond 1000 kms. Very smooth, silent ride. Cruise control and hill assist presently. 2 negative points. Rear seats not having any fan facility and rear shockers are not too good.
