Budget friendly Premium vehicle

Budget premium vehicle, price was little high but coming to comfort in seating for long distances and riding in heavy traffic I felt it is so smooth. Must appreciate the instant pickup in hill areas, I observed in araku.

All Reviews

If I am ready to pay 21Lakhs, better I shall buy Innova/Safari basic version.

I feel VW should concentrate on appropriate pricing and high volumes. 1litre engine AT costs around 18Lakhs in Bangalore. If my budget is 21 Lakhs, I shall buy Tata Safari/Innova rather than buying tiny vw.
