Most Helpful Review

Superb

Good looks and mostly new models stylish design and good features in car motor-driven power steering and good fat with digital display and mostly like of front fast USB charger

No Mileage

Exterior Looks good, perfectly designed no doubt about even though the back end looks a bit abrupt . Also the ground clearance very good. Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior the plastic is of really poor quality but considering the price thats expected. Altough i think they should have kept power windows for the back windows too. Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Engine is beautifully designed responses very well but the problem I faced was the car on this version that is 1.5l TiVCT MT has no mileage the company says 16km/l but im getting an average of 9-10 km/l which is very poor.  Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality is good, the turning radius is a bit too big and hinders especially on the indian roads. Final Words Good car to buy if you are willing to spend a fortune on the petrol bills or i would prefer to spend more money and go for the duster or the upcoming honda br-v. Areas of improvement MILEAGE, MILEAGE AND MILEAGE.good carpoor mileage

Hyundai Exter First Drive Review

By Bilal Ahmed Firfiray17 Jul 2023

With the Exter, Hyundai has done its homework and has made the overall package quite difficult to overlook.

Ford Ecosport 1.5l diesel

By Ameya Dandekar06 Jan 2016

The EcoSport was launched with a lot of fanfare in 2013. More than two years down the line, it is still Ford’s mainstay in the Indian market as far as numbers are concerned. To keep things fresh, Ford has come out with a facelift version of the compact SUV and changes aren’t just skin deep. While it gets a mild facelift and additional features, Ford has also upgraded the old 1.5-litre diesel engine to the Figo spec. So now the motor makes more power than before which will definitely aid its performance.

Hyundai Exter First Look

By Jay Shah10 Jul 2023

Hyundai has launched its smallest and most compact SUV in India. It’s called the Exter and this one slots below the Venue and is based on the brand’s entry-level hatchback, the Grand i10 Nios. The Exter is a petrol-only SUV with a CNG variant, is offered in seven variants and is a direct rival to the Tata Punch. Let’s take a closer look at it.
