Most Helpful Review

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.

Good build quality

Good build quality and also it has a great value for money however the airbags are not so good and also comfort wise this car is not so affordable overall pricing range makes this car good.
