Base Model, more waiting time

I booked the Kushaq Base Model Classic Variant almost 2 months ago, still on September 1st, 2024, they said that the company is not producing the cars now, and production has not started yet. So long time waiting even after booked earlier at the Indore location.

Honda Elevate review

Honda nailed it with the pricing! Finally! This car is value for money considering other manufacturers! Buying experience: should be good Looks and performance: looks high class, looks like its global models abroad. Performance for a natural aspirated model is quite good. Mileage is good too. Pros: looks, build quality, engine, price Cons: few features like ventilated seats, panoramic sunroof is missing.

Grab the Thar

What a mind-blowing car, such an amazing feel when you drive it, comfort is not bad, road presence is good, and you will enjoy every bit of second while driving, but mileage is a bit issue.
