Most Helpful Review

Reliable predictable and consistent performance

I drove this car to Badrinath , Really enjoy the driving it's movability and engine is really very smooth Very good car If you drive between 60 to 70 km/h We get average 20++ AC is very effective

Worst Service Experience

A very comfortable car for long drives but the problem is with reno service. You have to spend atleast 80000 per year for its maintainance and the resell value is nothing more than 3 lakhs. Having bought it for 17 lakhs and then selling it for 3 lakhs is the worst feeling you can have on your own decision after driving it only for 70000 km.

Honda City Long Term Report: Introduction

By Jay Shah11 May 2024

First launched in 2020, followed by a refresh in 2023 with sharper styling, additional features, and an advanced driver-assistance system (ADAS) suite, the Honda City has landed a spot in our long-term fleet. Sedans are a rare breed here, so this widely popular choice piqued our interest, especially in the new ‘Obsidian Blue’ paint.

2014 Renault Fluence

By Charles Pennefather09 Apr 2014

The Fluence has a difficult job. It lies in a segment of the market that covers a range of nearly ten lakh rupees. At the bottom end are the likes of the Honda City and Hyundai Verna, that offer more legroom and gizmos than ever before. At the other end lies the Skoda Superb – and these are only the sedans. We haven’t considered the Maruti Ertiga and Honda Mobilio, and the cars that are generating the most sales in the price bracket: the SUVs. Sure, one of the most successful is from the Renault stable itself, but that only makes the Fluence’s job harder. How, then has Renault managed to update the Fluence to battle a shrinking segment?
