Exterior
Italin design. Overall the car really looks Good.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort)
Auto AC is really good, Back seat is comfortable with good thigh support.
Hats off to Blue & ME, Auto Headlamps, auto rain sensing wipers, follow me home.
Boot space is best. Could be a nice touch if anti pinch windows & electric foldable rear view mirrors are present.
Plastic qualtiy, rubber quality, fit & finish should be improved a lot.
Dashboard design feels outdated. Bottle holder is missing.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox
1.3 mutlijet - Decent and reliable engine. Max speed - 165 KMPH, Comfortable speed - 120 KMPH
Fuel economy - AVG 15 to 16 KMPL. You get even 18 when you maintain 100 KMPH. City - 10 to 12 KMPL.
Gearbox - Smooth. Clutch - Smooth but the pedal is placed too high. you have to lift your leg too high to operate, feels uncomfortable in city because of the clutch pedal.
Ride Quality & Handling
Steering: Handling is excellent in Smooth road . But steering pulls suddenly to one side on rough roads. Have to be very cautious during driving. Rear Suspension is very bumpy on speed brakers and pot holes.
Wind noise is more audible after 120 KMPH. poor road visibilty because of massive A pillar and rear view mirror.
Final Words
Good Car. Value for money. We expect a much bigger car with 1.6 MT & AT.
