Exterior Stylish exterior with best in class ground clearance and length. Look wise definitely best looking sedan in country in this segment.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Interior is stylish as well with Piano black dashboard with beige combination. Looks stunning with ambient lighting. Very conformable front seats with lot of leg room (I am 6”3). The rear space can be made better though.
Love the Blue and Me and seamless synching. Great Visibility with powerful headlamps. Suspension set is great as well. Overall looks quite luxurious inside the cabin. One segment up for sure.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox The Power produced by 1.3 L diesel engine is just enough to drive anywhere. There is a turbo lag until you reach 1200 RPM though. But one needle passes 2000 RPM you get full boost of Tourqe and it takes off.
Good Fuel Economy. I got 19.6/L on log drive (800 KM). Gearbox not so smooth but very convenient. Overall drive is quite enjoyable and relaxed.
Ride Quality & Handling Ride quality of Linea is astonishing. The ABS works perfectly at high speed and hardly any problem at high speed on turns. I drove this Vehicle @140/KMPL on Bangalore-Pune highway, but Vehicle was rock Solid on road. I felt could have Goan even further easily. Noise insulation is ok too considering a Diesel car. It is too good for a car with has 185 MM of ground clearance and 16 inch Alloy Wheels.
Final Words Love this car. Not sure why you don't too many of them on Road. I am a happy customer so far 😄.
Areas of improvement
1. Although 1.3 L Diesel Engine is enough, but considering the build quality of the car 1.6 L engine would be great for Drivers.
2. Auto foldable ORVM and provision of Sunroof will make this car even more feature rich.
Good Fuel Economy, Stylish Interiors and Exterior, Wonderful Handling and suspension set up.Lack of utility space inside the car. Turbo lag under 1200 RPM like any Diesel car in this segment.
