Far too pricey

The Skoda should have come in way cheaper to about 25 L on road. There is no sedan between 18-30 L apart from the Elantra. Skoda will lose out on sales and I am sure that if she was priced better people would choose it. The previous generation had the 1.5 TSI available. Now even it does not get a diesel option. Honda civic made a mistake by going for a CVT in petrol and manual diesel and we know how the sales of that turned out to be. Skoda needs to consider again their prices or atleast come up with more engine options. If Kia and Nissan come up with their respective sedan models the sedan market is for sure going to pick up provided the prices are reasonable

Poor service back up though a great car

I owned Outlander for 7 years. Undoubtedly an amazing machine. Superior to CRV, Endeavor and the likes in performance. Designed for high speed on highways and can manoeuvre in the city as well. But... Worst ever service back up. No parts like even ORVM, forget major parts. I was reduced to a beggar in Bangalore SVR Motors. I tried contacting Mitsubishi cost care, and Hind Motors directly for parts but no use. All that just to replace a broken ORVM. Mitsubishi, with its half-hearted 2nd attempt, won't survive for long in this competitive Indian car market. Again buyers will be trapped. A beautiful car with total lack of after-sales cares him just a good as a great surgeon with poor post-op care. You know the end!
