The best among all small cars

Exterior

Definitely one of the most good looking cars, the exteriors are awesome considering the fact that this car came to India almost 16 years ago, the tail lamps look beautiful are designed well to match the rear body.

This car has an aerodynamic design and moves swiftly. The draw back I noticed on the exteriors part is the fading of the headlamp dome.

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)

 Interiors are not bad for the given value of the car, the car has adequate boot space at front as well as rear, the music system and A/c ( Daewoo) is good. excellent view  for driving and seating comfort, thanks to a strong suspension and shocks.

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox

 I have been driving this cute car for almost 6 years, and I have done more than 55,000km, in total the car is nearing 1 lakh km, Engine performance is excellent, gearbox is good, and good mileage on highwaye, gives around 18 to 19km per litre, mileage on city roads are lesser, gives around 12 km per litre, pick up and speed is very good, on highways;we can easily do 120km speed and the car stays steady and in control, couple of draw backs are:

Coolant leakage that sometimes occurs from the hose pipes. ( this car has 6 or seven different hose pipes connected to one another for circulating the coolant). The coolant tank requires close montoring and top up, sometimes the hose need to be replaced.

The head lamps are good looking, but the seem to get faded and dull in appearence due to heat and sun, this affects the quality of the light to some extent.

Ride Quality & Handling

 Drive is pleasent, no major handling or maintenence.

Final Words

 This car is definitely worth more than it's current market value considering it's features and performance.

Unfortunately, Daewoo motors has stopped this car since 11 years, if it continued to produce, I bet this car would have been a major competitor for other cars in the same segment, with furtther improvements this car most probably would have been the best.

Areas of improvement
