The Alturas G4 Experience

I bought this SUV after considering & test driving the Fortuner & the Ford Endeavour. No contest. The first test ride of the Alturas surprised me with the almost silent and powerfully responsive engine. Quiet and powerful with handling at par with the Endeavour and far ahead of the Fortuner. The second thing that struck me was the sheer luxury quotient of the vehicle interiors. Superbly packaged, classy and extremely comfortable - including such bits as the ventilated seats (front only) & high quality of finish. The sheer range of equipment provided is far ahead of the competition. I bought this SUV in end March 2019. It helped that the sales personnel knew all the tech details that we queried them about. Good experience. In fact the sales team kept in touch even after the purchase. Recently, we drove from Indore to Mumbai and back - short holiday. A minimum of 12 plus kmpl on the highway and the vehicle handled beautifully - none of us who took turns to drive felt any tiredness at the end of the journey. Smooth and silent we were surprised that the engine spun at 1500 rpm at 100 kph! And we had loaded it up with 4 suitcases plus an assortment of carry on bags, etc. No problem. Plenty of space at the rear. The 1000 km servicing before our trip was efficiently done - basic checks, tightening of nuts and bolts & washing. The entire vehicle appears to be imported. So far - superb & impressive experience. Cons: Would have preferred a fwd looking camera to see lower fwd areas. The high bonnet is tricky when negotiating narrow areas / tight turns.

Best Beast !

<p>I took delivery of Pajero Sport from Maya Motors, Chennai on 7th May'12 and drove it to Bengaluru, where i stay. For the next 7 days i have been driving it 30-40 kms a day. She has done about 700 kms so far out of which half is on highway and rest in city.</p> <p>I actively considered Toyota Fortuner and Hyundai Santa Fe and took a test ride in both. However, ended up having a Pajero Sport which i had not taken a test ride on, not even seen physically !</p> <p>What a fantastic decision in the end ?!!!&nbsp;&#x1F60A;</p> <p>It takes me around 30-min to my office in the morning if i start a little early and those 30-min are the happiest in my life now.</p> <p>The posture on driver seat, the view thru the windshield, that grip on the steering wheel, responsiveness of the engine after 2000rpm, smoothness of the drive, ease with which she tackles the speed breakers and handles the rough patches on the road, manoeuvrability in traffic ... .. .</p> <p>and the head-turner that she is ... .. .</p> <p>the experience is like <strong>WOW !</strong></p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p><strong><br/></strong></p>Awesome ride , great styling & sexy interiors.None so far in few hundred kilometers that i have driven so much
