My masakkali

1. I purchased my car without PDI, and I got wonderful. Excellent experience 2. I drove my car about 40k kilometre, continuous drove about 750 kms, and I didn't tired. 3. I have Oxford blue colour, it's amazing. Performance is quite good. 4. Service like other diesel cars. 5. I got mileage on highways approx 27 kmpl with 5 persons and with a/c. Poor build quality.

Buzzy noise from the A/c compressor

I bought the new Honda Amaze 2019 model and within 500km ride I find a buzzing noise from the A/c compressor which is very much annoying. I took it to the company and they say it’s a default noise in all vx diesel models. We pay for the higher end and get such a noisy ride. Hope the company calls back it’s new vx models and get it done.

feel the comfort at its extreme....Excellent vehicle. excellent services. worth for every penny...

i have bought ameo on jan 2018, till now i have drove 62,000/- kms. i am getting a good mileage of 20km/l. I love the audio quality and power. rear seat suspension is more luxury. stability is good. auto ac is having many silent features. very safety , the same rate vehicles in maruthi and hundai are worthless for money when compared to vw. service cost is quite expensive, but really worth,. i am enjoying my car daily with increasing love on volkswagen.

Value for mony

Dealers are so cooperating and very efficient,in riding experience pickup little slower but after it runs very good ford provided ample space in its class, maintenance cost is affordable and not so much as per ford promise overall performance look so good except cabin is too noisy
