Great, but there's always room for improvement.

I was able to test ride it for a few KMs, performance is unmatched by anything I've driven before, and features and range are also good. There are some areas where there's room for improvement, There's a space in front of the shifter where you have to keep your phone if you want to use Android Auto/ Apple CarPlay, it's really awkward to access as it's built deep, the infotainment system has a room for a lot of improvement, it's laggy and slow to respond, and just should be better.

Waste of money...

<p>Expensive service and maintenance cost. Poor average somewhere between 5to7km in city. Mercedes Benz cla or perhaps c class is better than this one. Cabin is excellent, touchscreen display response is far better than other models. Leather seats are perfect. Steering wheel and it's mounted controls are best in this segment. Resale value is poor. I have purchased in 2015 and done 18,000 km I have sold it at 17.6 lacs.</p>NANA
