Most Helpful Review

Perfect family car

looks could be better and Toyota's reliability is super cool as always. it lacks on some features but riding quality is very good its engine is super smooth . and yeah its mileage is poor take that in consideration

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.

Toyota Platinum Etios First Drive

By Ninad Ambre03 Oct 2016

Toyota's another attempt at finding more buyers for a practical and spacious family sedan, which lacked the oomph, the exciting factor it needed to lure in buyers. The Etios was refreshed in 2013, when the exterior and interior were updated.
