excellent car to have if only it had a higher fuel economy

Has a very good overall feel to it. The engine is extremely responsive and drive is smooth (german engineering at work here). This car is very stable at high speeds of 160kph as compared to others in the class like ikon and esteem. gives a very good driving pleasure. Fuel economy has spelt disaster for this car. 8-10kmpl in city is abysmal. It sometimes goes even lower than that. Another point is the unusual gear shift pattern especially for the 5th and reverse gear. Nonetheless a very good car to own if only it had a better fuel economy and the fact that GM had not phased it out.Extremely responsive engine,comfortable for long drivesFuel economy, gear shift pattern
