    DRIVING:
    Its my mate since ages

    I am driving this car for last 3 yrs, having Punto Evo Emotion. I had only good experiences from Punto, even service. Everyone are clear that its a great car to have, only doubted in service. As a customer will not say I only had goody goody experiences. Marikar Fiat, Kottayam Kerala from where I purchased were forced to shut down by Fiat as they had debt, with thm and they channelised lakhs(sm 50 lakhs)for other things which fiat gave for marketing and promotions. Later I called Fiat and got nearest other dealer in Kochi. They were not best but moderate like any other Maruti or Volkswagen showrooms. After major warranty I changed service to Kottayam Fiat service center which ws started by Old Fiat experienced technicians and Fiat fans.

    For any doubts, problems, suggestions, parts I always had Fiat clubs, their fans and 99rpm site from where we can get online all genuine Fiat parts ,in case of delays. I can say service cost is not defenitely cheap like toyota which is around 5k. But not like Volkswagen which is generally 10k to 12k,but very much similar to a Maruti 7k to 8k.In some crashes car bumpers and doors didnt breaked like Maruti. Jst recovered the bents. Saved a lot like this where other cars rqrd replacements. Perfomance is great , as you require you can raise Punto to any level. It touces 140 with out hesitations and can go up to 185km per hr.its very safe and relaxed to drive bw 80 to 120. In this range I get about 19 to 20 kmpl in full AC at 22 degree C. In commuting gets about 16 to 17 kmpl as its Kerala. But my friends who are regular commuters get 18+kmpl. Its suspension is stable and will not make passengers feel the speed. My sister and Amma who drive it says the safe and shield feel that we get from Punto is such good(kreb weight 1200 kgs). Its not light like Liva but sufficiently tight for safe speeds. I Rated 5 stars because I don't know why Indians neglected such good cars and i dont like such attitudes. We need to get out of our general minds.

    Select it without fear as Their Jeep is Now bestselling in segment and they are giving service to Mopar who are Fiat's International Sevice Team. If you are a little knowledgable. You can do it by yourself by purchasing frm 99rpm. Overall if i say, I needed a car which I can drive with fully settled mind anywhere in South India, just neglected 850 kg Maruti cars and cheap qualitied toyota where we pay near to 8 lakhs and gets nothing. While I ordered there were many rumours, critics but I prefered my mind over anyone. I And I am satisfied also.
