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.

The best equipped version for the price

<p><strong>Exterior</strong> Very futuristic design and stands out in the crowd. Draws reasonable attention, specially the White colour. Black looks sexy. Sometime feels big for parking in tight spot.</p> <p><strong>Interior (Features, Space &amp; Comfort)</strong> Overall quite good. Rear headroom is on the shorter side. Rear visibility is very poor so a reverse parking sensor with camera is must.</p> <p><strong>Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox</strong> Good economy with adequate amount of power. Just what is needed in Indian driving condition. Six speed gearbox is well mated to the engine.</p> <p><strong>Ride Quality &amp; Handling</strong> Ride quality is comfortable but handling is not bright, but it is safe and predictable.</p> <p><strong>Final Words</strong> It is quite a capable car with all the necesarry &nbsp;goodies. Well built but does not feels as solid as it's European rivals like Skoda or VW. Has all the features that a buyer wants from a car of this class. Automatic version ideal if you want to drive yourself only or else the manual is quite efficient. Big pot holes and speed breaker needs to be dealt with caution.&nbsp;</p> <p><strong>Areas of improvement</strong> Handling and suspension setup.</p>Features, Design, Performance and EconomyDriving dynamics, Streering feel
