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

Beware about maintenance costs

Beware about maintenance cost, I have driven the Ameo for 43,000 km now. The normal maintenance of 15000 km costs in the range of Rs 12 to 13k. Apart from that, the steering rack of my car required a change at40,000 km costing me a total maintenance cost of Rs 48,000/=. The dealer promised it on prorata warranty replacement but later denied warranty. Beware of navi mumbai dealer AutoBhan.
