Overpriced car

Overpriced car, in this price range, you have many options, the exterior was average, after-sale service very poor, you should go with Tata and Mahindra which giving very important features like additional electronic seats ventilated seats and many more in which you can save much more money so this was going to flop

Excellence of german engineering

The SK-LK is definitely a fun car to drive. Its peppy engine is a real thrill to drive in close traffic as well on highways. Our family instantly liked it. We've driven a close to 2500 KMS over the past 2 months.

Clean lean thrilling Machine

The buying experience from Jeep was great and the car was great too. I have driven it for more than 5k kilometers the performance of the engine is good. The driving experience was great. The service is Lil bit of expensive
