Chevrolet Sail [2012-2014] User Reviews

Exterior

 looks good from outside , not a sub 4 mtr car, a complete sedan look

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 almost all essential features are there except the door unlocking switch rather old fashioned knobs

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 good poweful engine , never felt that it lacks power,goes easily upto 140kmph on highways and in fact i didnt push it harder so not know the upper limit, and it gave me milage of about 18kmpl when i drove it to speed above 110 kmph for most of the journey on highway

Ride Quality & Handling

 excellent ride quality, easy to handle , but have trouble in reversing the car so got rear camera fitted, also due to length of vehicle and wheel base taking U turn requires some labour 

Final Words

 Had trouble in deciding to go for it but with little courage I went to buy this car and in the end I found my decision to be correct , as in this amount maruti dezire which most people sugessted me to buy does give me all the features, space and comfort, dont know about the cost of spares of chevy but still hope that extended warranty of two years + 3years original warranty will take care of most of it ,So friends i would sugesst you to go through it yourself before buying anyother car

Exterior: Looks like mini cruz, love the front grill & the back too.Many people complain about the back of this vehicle, but i find the back much better than Swift dezire & Honda amaze.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) : Good features, great space & great driving comfort. The Cockpit cabin gives a premium feel in the vehicle.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox : Just efficient engine, Petrol sail sedan gives me about 15km (with the AC on)still havent hit my first service which is a good thing so far.

Gearbox : Looks great. Smooth transmission, good noise control.

Ride Quality & Handling : Good suspension, feather smooth transmission & good sound proof build, Fuel milage is just appropriate.

Final Words : Have 6Lacs & need a sedan? Must buy! Great value for money & perfect for city drive. Looks amazing.

Areas of improvement : Audio mounted controls on the steering.missing logo on the steering wheel which is something that shouldnt have been compromised. 

Exterior

 Good looking Car. Any one have a feel to buy it seeing from outside.Stylish,Sold Build,Steel Quality

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Spaces and good leg Room,Comfort. Dash board color should be changed. No attactive stuff. Audio is Good, Ac is Good.Need to place power Window buttons in right place.Defogger is Good.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

I am getting average of 11KM per Litre (Inside City) with AC after driving 800 KM. Gear Box can be little smooth.clutch paddle can be little low.Feeling leg pain during long drive. It requires little Power in 2nd Gear. Must to change to first gear in slow moving traffic. With full load with AC feels more control.But pulling is low.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Good Steering is smooth. Easy to handle like a small car.

Final Words

 Good Car for First time car buyers

Areas of improvement  

 POWER,INTERIOR,GEAR SMOOTHNESS,MILLAGE

Exteriors - Looking at the car from outside its very nice & gives ypu a feel of perfact sedan but comes with lot of demerits as well

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) - features are not that great, good space & comfortable drive

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox - worst in this segment, car stops especially on slopes & breakers, engine knocks even in first gear, peculier sound while reverse, sounds like diesel

Gear box is ok

Ride Quality & Handling -I live in Powai and  I drive daily to my office in navi Mumbai, while its slow and in crowd the enine stops & gives the feeling to increase the spped otherwise engine stops again, while you reverse and if it is slpe it gets you pissed off and you really hate the car,once on highway its move better.

Final Words -Its an expensive car (cost me 8-Lac - Company registration) and having driven for a few months i found not worth it , its a worst car in terms of cost, fuel efficiency & engine performance- Inspite of minimul use of AC it gives 10 KM/L, Pankaj MH-43-AY-5514

Areas of improvement  - fuel efficiency, engine power, fule pump, engine sound should be smoth
