Most Helpful Review

Silent cabin, smoother driving, music system amazing.

My friend uses this one. amazing driving experience smooth driving. interior quality is next to fab. performance is like setting a gear on (D) and the car is ready to take off! The music system is amazing. I know the service as I own a Fortuner so there is no doubt after sales in Toyota and Lexus!

Best Decision by Me

I had to think a lot before buying this car as it is not so cheap but it was worth every single rupee after I bought this car every day I went for a round just to show off my car its super duper comfortable its speed its also very good but I think the mileage can do a little bit better but anyways it's very good for its price and I just can’t explain it anymore in words.
