5.0 Exterior | 4.0 Comfort | 4.0 Performance |
4.0 Fuel Economy | 4.0 Value for Money |
Exterior: I love the styling, i heard people complaining about usage of chrome, but i like it. Alloy wheels looks really great, it compliments the car style. it looks muscular from more than one angle. I have added Roof Rails, it looks so cool on it.
Interior (Features, Space & Comfort): Features are good, options available on the instrument cluster are more than what i expected. but the press on the horn is a little hard for me. I really like the speed limiter option.
Front row space & Comfort is just as you like it, when rear seats do not dissapoint you, a little more bench space would have been perfect, rear leg room is satisfactory. Boot is practical to use with good depth. I was able to fit in 4 full sized bags in it without any problem.
Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox: Its been only a week that i got this beauty, but i have already started liking the performance, Cannot comment on Fuel Economy as i havent run good numbers yet.
Ride Quality & Handling: The Best!!! (Justifying my title), i have Test Driven I20 Active, Ecosport before driving this one, this is the best, the confidence that you get over the corners and the steering feedback is just a class above. I am really not exaggerating, this steering has life in it :-). Ground clearance is very good.
Final Words: I heard people saying why Fiat, Delivery issues, service issues, less resale value, i was also skeptical before the test drive, but, after that i have booked it immediately.
Areas of improvement : May be a little more engine refinement, to fix the turbo lag in the first two gears.
