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

Bad engineering, good looks

Don't buy this car, they don't have any customer service. The milage of the car is under 10. Only exteriors are looking good, but built quality is inferior. Delivery may take 100 days. Led experience is very bad. No service center to get car repaired.

Excellent service from renault madurai ringroad

Excellent service from Madurai ring road showroom. Happy to purchase a Renault my Dream car. Showroom ambience really nice.
