Safe and secured

To good driving and running cost is better than any other company car and also safety is so important thing to buy this car for me I love this car no compromise for safety me and my family.

A beast with value for money which never let you down

if will talk about the price that one will get it higher but don't worry it is value for money car... as the quality of parts and body including engine is like you will not get in any other brand under this price range. smooth drive experience with some sporty trends. yeah but when it comes to service and maintenance, it takes little bit more than other cars but you will not regret as it offers premium quality of drive and life with proper maintainance. the only con is it takes maintainance which is little higher everything else except maintainance I would like to count as pro from my driving experience to build up quality.

Excellent budget car for family

Buying experience was good enough. They give test drive for every car you want to purchase. In this car driving experience is very good because of very good ground clearance. Looks are also good. Servicing is quiet good and maintenance of car is very low. Well the car has good features like infotainment display enough space for four seater.
