Chevrolet Beat [2014-2016] User Reviews

Exterior: LOOKS GOOD, MY RIGHT BACK LIGHT HAS PROBLEM AS RAIN WATER AND WASHING WATER ENTER INSIDE IT AND IT BECOMES FEDDED IT'S COLOUR. CHEVY REPLACE IT AFTER A YEAR WITH NO COST, BUT I WAS COMMENTED BY FRIENDS.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)FEATURES AVERAGE, AUDIO SOUND QUALITY GOOD. SPACE AVERAGE AND COMFORT GOOD. PROBLEM I FOUND IN THE SWITCH OF INTERIOR LIGHT.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: FUEL ECONOMY GOOD , PICKUP VERY GOOD.

THE PROBLEM WHICH HURTS ME IS IN JUST 16MONTHS THE FUEL PUMP INJECTOR GOT JAMMED AND CAR STOPPED AT A MIDDLE OF JOURNEY.

IS NOT IT A SERIOUS PROBLEM G.M. MOTOR SHOULD LOOK AFTER. MORE OVER I WANT TO WRITE A THING THE FUEL FILTER WHICH WAS CHANGED , I FOUND IT MADE IN CHINA.

 

 

Ride Quality & Handling

 

Final Words

 MANTANANCE GUYS AT SERVICE CENTER SHOULD BE MORE RESPONSIBLE.

Areas of improvement  

ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE PROGRAMME IS WORST. I HAVE IT FOR A YEAR. MY CAR BROKE DOWN AT BAISINGA 15 KM FROM BALASORE. THE RSA TEAM TAKE 6.5 HR TO REACH ME FROM BALASORE. I WAS PICKED UP AT 12.45AM AT MIDNIGHT.

GOOD FUEL ECONOMY AND COMFORTABLE RIDING QUALITYPROBLEM IN FUELPUMP INJECTER, CHINA MADE DIESEL FILTER FOUND IN MY NEW CAR.

Exterior-Good styling and vehicle appeals.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)- Good interiors except inbuilt music system ( its time pass) and rearview mirror (it should bigger and should be place better). Good AC  no complaints so far.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox- I have clocked 22000kms, engine is V.good and responsive (noice level is low), City milage is 19 to 20 with AC and on high way 23.4 with drive as you like.

Gear box is fine but could have been much better.

Ride Quality & Handling-City ride is comfirtable and good. on Highway you need to be care full if you are driving with 4 family members and load full of boot. But still you can manage up to 110 km, beyond this you need to be extra careful while applying brakes. Overall ride becoms better with 4 members.

Final Words- Good vehilce for city driving and even good for couple of high way trips.

Areas of improvement- Music system to be improved, it does not play all formats even the sound quality is poor.  High speed stability and gear box needs improvement.

Looks, style, Fuel economy, ground clearenceBoot space, high speed

Exterior: Very stylish car. frontal appearance is phenomenal. Especially new fog light design is very fresh.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Bluetooth is missing. Temperature display could be provided in atleast LT varient and above. Travelling at Front seat provide maximum comfort with no fatigue at all.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: I have been using LT since last 6 months. Engine is powerful. 1200 cc engine in such a 965 Kg body gives perfect power with a feeling of big car and with great suspension.

Ride Quality & Handling: Ride quality is top notch. handling is predictable. I had to face a very sharp break at highway. The car reponded nicely at high speed with good control. Afterall we can not compare the quality of ride of polo with chevy beat.

Final Words: Very good car consdering the price tag.

Areas of improvement  Infotainment should be updated to latest car model and rear seat design should be modified to accomodate comfort ride of third passenger.

Easy to drive inside both city and highwayBlack interior makes it very clumsy at rear

Exterior Since it is a basic car,the exterior is ok. But one has to sit inside and drive. So don't bother the exterior.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) In a basic car the features don't really command appeal.It is the performance which matters.Since, the features are  basic, the feel and  comfort  are no good.Specially the seats which are quite deep to give any feeling of comfort.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The fuel economy is ok. While I am writting this review my wife informs me that the brakes of car have failed on way back home. She had to drive about 5 to 6 km using hand brake.The gears also became free /not getting engaged properly.She took her heart out yelling at me. Obviously, she was scared.

When I spoke to the dealer for this.He as usual started justifying.

Ride Quality & Handling The riding quality is like travelling in Vikram 3 wheeler(A kind of transport available in Ghaziabad which carries public from one place to another). The shock absorbers are really bad. I have got it changed once but the performance/improvement  is just marginal.

Handling is smooth. Steering is comfortable.

Final Words The car is just 3 years old and has given all the possible shocks of life.If you care for your life, don,t buy it.

Areas of improvement Facing such serious problem in such short span of time,I think GM needs to develop and manufacture a different car altogather and scrap it once for all.

ok with styleread the review

Beat is a amazing driving experience with its finger controlled steering. Truly comfortable. Engine is OK. Derates while AC is turned on. Run like a sports car after a certain RPM. Boot space is a issue for people carrying luggage.

Exterior : exterior looks are good but there is no safety even airbags are useless for such a small car plastics used are very very cheap and engine noise is more we have to keep more audio sound to negotiate with the engine noise

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) less booot space and very little leg room space and more over  we have to swith off the ac to overtake the other vehicle so that torque will be increased

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox :: gear box is good but in 100 attempts there wil be minimum 10 to 15 gear failures and clutch plates are very very poor

 

Ride Quality & Handling: handling is good because of its small size  but in high speeds there will be less control .. diesel version is 1000 cc only similar to alto k10 even alto k10 petrol giving 22km milage so whats the need of diesel engine in the chevrolet giving only 23 kmpl ........

and more over the service was very very poor and more over fusion motors in vijayawada stood first in worst service

 

Final Words:: very very poor car at low price finally chevrolet beat  cant even compered with the alto k10 a small impact causes huge loss and more over i collected the reviews who are useing the chevrolet they said the chevrolet is just like use and throw vehicle

 giving 23 milage is not  a big deal reduction of weight of any vehicle will give the milage so for beat 1000 cc 23 is not a great thing

 

Areas of improvement  ;; area quality and most most important thing is service and customer satisfaction

 

 

style,little bit more milage,safetyless bad driving comfort,noisy engine,poor service,spares cost is high,no resale value

 

It has been purchased by putting lakhs of rupees and the customer obviously expect that it should meet min. expectations about the parts durability (For inst. total Brake unit including cylinders & clutch etc.) but these are giving the problems or got spoiled at the early stage.

 

 Service Center: The hospitality/receiving is Ok. when we give any complaint they will say that they will look into but after completion of service and we expect that those has been taken care but after some time we will notice that it has not attended and we need to roam (plenty of times) behind them to rectify that problem.

 

FYI: The manager is saying that the problem should come in front of him and if it is occasional, he can’t do anything....he is not supposed to be made this statement by being a technical automobile engineer.

 

Customer Care: In simple words we can take it as “for name sack maintaining". I have followed up for 3 complaints ( which supposed to be killed at the service center and taken up to Manager but no use) for 3 weeks(after repeated follow-up, almost 50 times called) time taken to get a call from them and asked me to visit the service center, done the same way but only one problem has been rectified by saying all the problems rectified and without consulting us that complaint has been closed which i came to know after i have given a call to customer care and they said that will arrange a call back regarding closing of complaint  obviously they didn’t do... because we already have car and they least bother our concerns and our personnel time.

 

We expect few things which are min. and supposed to be met... we don’t have enough time to run behind them....

 

Points to be consider form the above shared information:

 

Service center people are not professionals and didn’t take proper action, that’s why the problem has been taken up to the customer care but with them also struggled a lot ; finally no use.

 

Unnecessarily wasting of our time by following up and will get disturbed by thinking about it during day time and our efficiency in our normal activities will come down.

 

Outlook is goodVery less durability of parts

I know that Chevrolet stop selling it's car in India. But the car they were selling before is fabulous.The mileage,the comfort, and design is also fantastic. But the service cost of the Chevrolet Cars are expensive.

Chevrolet beat diesel car is the best car. I don't no why company shut down their showroom in india. I have own beat car since last five years but I have nothing extra expenses without service and I think that next five years no problem in car. My life best car.
