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.

HOTROD RAPID RIDER

I am Raveen a Skoda Technician you can buy a skoda Rapid rider edition and you can upgrade it to a top model and have great fun Riding it. It is a Sedan Beast. It will have great feel in driving comfort for a long drive also but the service cost is little high because it is imported car.

2017 Skoda Rapid First Drive Review

By Abhishek Nigam21 Nov 2016

Adding some sharpness are the new quartz-cut projector headlights. Adding some more drama is the chrome eyelash blending in with the jewel-shadow LED daytime running lights. It might sound complex but it does look good. The bumper has been revised as well with redesigned fog lights and now incorporating a lip spoiler s well.
