Most Helpful Review

Comfort with Luxury

Details about looks, performance etc: Look is quite Different so only I purchased that car.. in road all will be looking like some awesome car came on road Lik an imported one... It's feels good to ride that in road <br>

Performance is good

Well, I bought this car for its comfortable ride quality and amazing looks. Performance is good. The customer support and service cost is too much. Also, Jeep must work on their relationship-building skills and customer service else they have not learned from the mistakes of Fiat and Ford.

2023 Hyundai Tucson Long Term Review: Highway Report

Volkswagen Beetle

By Ameya Dandekar21 Jan 2016

The recently launched Volkswagen Beetle is not your regular car. It’s an icon and is a celebration of the original Beetle which was on sale for more than six decades. It’s the crown jewel in Volkswagen’s history and is a car which gave the German giant recognition worldwide. Originally known as the people’s car, thanks to its reasonable price and low running costs, the new one though is anything but affordable. Priced at Rs 28.7lakh , the new car is more of an expensive accessory which is something you don’t need but rather something you want. At this price you can get many cars which are more practical and are better to drive, but these are not the reasons you buy a car like the Beetle anyway. It is a type of vehicle you will want for its retro appeal and the one which makes you feel special. So does the new Beetle feel special enough to justify its exorbitant price?
