Good choice

It's a budget car. Speed performance is good no sound coming from engine a very low voice. Engine power is too good. Break system is good. Average is good. The seat is comfortable good.go for it.

Reliable predictable and consistent performance

I drove this car to Badrinath , Really enjoy the driving it's movability and engine is really very smooth Very good car If you drive between 60 to 70 km/h We get average 20++ AC is very effective

Overall excellent

The Interior of the car should be in black colour with chrome framing, and I request to Mahindra to provide finance facility at a low interest rate so that more and more people purchase this car.
