Most Helpful Review

Good Product Proposition but lot of improvement required

The car serves our purpose…overall product proposition is fantastic, saving us lot of money. Actual range is 200-220 km in full charge and not 325 km as claimed. But then Tata still needs to figure out the quality-related stuff…gaps in panels, panels coming off, roof rubber coming off…not expect this from such a large brand. Such minor issues impact the image of the brand.

False promise from Kia

Kia is a cheating company .they fool the customers of India by giving false price. I have booked and waited for 2 months now i come to know that they suddenly increased price of 60000 rs on car price. If they cant give the car at offered price than why they did scam by false advertising about prices? Kia is not a brand they do just a false promise and big cheater. Never buy this. Any time they close the company and say bye bye to Indians.
