Most Helpful Review

Best car ever made by Tata motors

It is the best car for the Indian Market. It's been 3 years now, I've driven 16000 km and still feel best. The car gives confidence on high speed but should not go over speeding above 120km. Mileage is best when you drive in 3rd gear. The car is better than MG, VG, SKODA, and Suzuki because it's spacious never disappoints you on bad roads. The Tata service center works like a company so you don't feel luxury customer satisfaction. The spares get wear and tear.

Maruti Suzuki XL6

My sister bought this car and it is a hassle-free experience at the Maruthi Suzuki Nexa showroom. Great experience. Driven almost 800+kms. But there is some lag in the sudden pickup. So one should be much more careful when overtaking a vehicle, especially on NH. Looks wise it is good when comparing its competitors. Performance is also good. My sister did two services without any trouble. One may consider XL6 for a greater ride and will be suited for 6 persons. Seating arrangements are much better than its competitors. The fuel economy is average. There is some lag in power delivery. This means sudden pick-up is average only. Maruthi Suzuki must consider this issue and try to sort it out.
