It is a value for money car

 

Exterior The car is good to look at, though nearly all cars in this segment (UV-A, i20, Polo, Punto) look similar. The colour quality is very good.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) The music system is very good. However, there is inadequate storage space as a family car. The front doors have very small spaces and the rear doors have none. There are no cupholders. There are no smart spaces created for small items, the way it was in my 2002 Wagon R. Space in both front and rear seats is adequate. The AC is quite effective.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The engine performance is good enough for a family car, though it appears slightly underpowered as compared to my old car. It just takes getting used to. Fuel economy is 13 km/l in city with AC and 16 on highways with AC so far, after one servicing. Gearbox is precise.

 

Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is definitely better than my old car. This one appears sturdier as well. Handling is very light and precise. It appears low but so far I have only scraped the bottom once in 3000 km of driving (I generally have my wife and two little daughters on board). With five passengers it will definitely touch more often.

 

Final Words Probably the cheapest in the segment, it is a value for money car.

 

Areas of improvement Storage spaces for small knick-knacks in the cabin for a family car, cup holders.
